Third batch. Unfortunately the underhood pics were too large to attach, had to use the scaled down pics.

Thanks.

The truck is obviously missing just one thing.

It looks to only have 6,650 miles on it too.
Is that window visor a factory option? If so I may have to get me one.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Wow. I didnt know they offered bucket seats in the big trucks. The visor is very cool. I wonder where you get them?

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

thats a old original LUND visor . its aftermarket . 2 options light or no lights .

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Beautiful truck.

I doubt the Fronts have 10 Lugs though.

Will be interesting to see what it finishes off at.

If I were looking for a new truck, I would buy this instead without hesitation.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

If anybody has some standard C40/C50 fenders they want to go wider on, this guy's ad has a set of the wider C60 fenders he is looking to trade. Would make a better option for wider rear flares if you are running a dually or something and still want the wheel openings to match.

Hey Bill, my 72 c50 has 10 front, my 66 L60 5 front. Turn signal on fender 67 68? Beautiful truck I love chrome front,Pat

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Well, that's interesting. Although you are right, I've seen some strange combo's through the years.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

I think they went to 10 lug fronts in '71 or '72.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

I just checked a bunch of different '71 and '72 C-50's online and while many were 10-Lug, most were 5-Lug Fronts. Here is an example of one of them:

Interesting truck and I appreciate the quality and craftsmanship, but I would rather have it in the original condition shown in the picture, before they re-worked it.

"No turbo but the oil line is there"
Am I missing something???

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

The turbo!

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

The guy that built it had a build thread somewhere on here.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

I remember watching that thread and he put a lot of metal work into it. Price though...
Here's one...

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

On a gas engine? :smoke:

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Uhm, YES? :ito:

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Show me one of these GMC gas engines with a turbo,
I'm curious now

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

I've never personally seen one but I'm sure it could have happened. I have seen them turned into V-12s so anything is possible. Since this is not a "facts only" thread I am gonna go ahead and say there may be one out there. If anyone did it, it probably was the military.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Obviously anything is possible, that's not what my original reply was about, I believe you misinterpreted my response with "on a gas engine"
as a reply saying a turbo cannot go on a gas engine, per your reply
"Uhm, YES? ". As a previous owner of one of the low RPM V6 engines,
I know they would be very unhappy with a turbo and short lived.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

So, you meant to say "As a previous owner of one of the low RPM V6 engines, I know they would be very unhappy with a turbo and short lived." Not "On a gas engine"? I could see how I may have misinterpreted that. My apologies. :chevy: I meant to put a "HAHA" on the end of my response "The Turbo". I will have to be more careful. ;)

That's Stpeteblue's truck. Such a shame he got that truck less than a year ago.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Yeah. I had talked with a "friend" who does all kinds of frame modifications and he agreed to shorten the frame and put a pickup box on it before I bought the truck. The guy kept putting me off so I started fixing everything that was wrong with it. I can't do the fabrication, myself, and I couldn't get a straight answer from the guy, so I took it to a shop to get an estimate for the work. Way out of my price range.
I can't keep it as it sits and I can't afford to do it like I want so I am selling it. The price is my break even point. I know I'm not going to get that, but it's a starting point.
I'm so upset about it that I just want it gone!

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Great truck for someone out there. I would keep it just as it is. I would take your truck over a new one without any hesitation.
