That's a good deal for that transmission! I would buy that in a heart beat if it was close by :lol:

Yes, the 4 bolt side cover overdrive transmissions are the same length as the long tail shaft 3 speeds. I have two of the overdrive transmissions. The one currently in my truck came out of a 65 C10. I forget the count, but it has finer splines on the output shaft than the standard 3 speed I pulled out of my truck. The other overdrive that I have has the same spline count as the old 3 speed I pulled out.
I believe the output shaft spline count ran from 55-64 and then changed in 65. Another difference I noticed is that the input shaft necked down on my 55-64 overdrive trans but did not neck down on the 65 I put in the truck.

I was hoping you would chime in, you have most of the knowledge ive seen here on these beasts, ...

Ive sent him an email, Im in the middle of trying to sort a transmission swap, but $50 is $50, and probably worth the risk :metal:

Re: Post your 60-66 craigslist finds
 

Thanks, I did a lot of research on them before I made the decision to acquire one. I've had it in my truck for over three years now and picked up a second as a backup or for spare parts if needed. The only thing I haven't done with one yet is to rebuild it, but that will come eventually :lol:
But yeah, $50 is $50. The overdrive book by Randy Rundle is a great resource for digging into the details on how it all works.

Re: Post your 60-66 craigslist finds
 

I put one in my 72 because it has 4.56 gears. I love it. Now it has good pickup around town but I can cruise down the highway. I was lucky I did not have to change anything driveshaft wise just the shifter linkage. Mine came out of a 63 Impala. Good Luck!

Clean 3/4 ton, these don't come around every day. Not mine. Signs of an ex camper hauler, large mirrors and extra tank, which accounts for the much much better than average condition. A set of 19.5's would be in its immediate future if I was in the market. ;) https://sacramento.craigslist.org/ct...485754110.html

Re: Post your 60-66 craigslist finds
 

And in a nice dry area of California.
Sadly though, who ever buys it will probably convert it to a half ton, put an LS in it and lower it - ruining the 'grandpa truck' beauty of it.

Re: Post your 60-66 craigslist finds
 

Right, the grandpa looking truck becomes an ex-grandpa looking truck, seen it many times. Large percentage of the original buyers of these 3/4 ton camper boom type trucks were veterans from WWII and Korea, they wanted travel, explore and enjoy the large beautiful country they fought for and put there lives on the line for.

Re: Post your 60-66 craigslist finds
 

You guys are a couple of decades off. Those are now great grandpa trucks��

Re: Post your 60-66 craigslist finds
 

Read the GMC camper ad ( very clean original piece by the way Jocko), looks like somebody already destroyed the clutch. Note position of pedal. Never liked the way the 4 speed gear shift pattern was for rookie drivers, some latter patterns had the more accurate L 1 2 3, I could see how somebody could blow a clutch or U joint pronto.

Re: Post your 60-66 craigslist finds
 

I think it was ruined at the manufacturer when they put the camper on it;)

Re: Post your 60-66 craigslist finds
 

I actually love it! Considering the low initial cost and wide open potential for a build-to-suit camper interior, it wouldn't take much to create an awesome food service rig for vintage car shows etc. Picture a big walk-up window under that awning, or maybe on the driver side.
I'll take two hot dogs and three beers please! LOL!

Re: Post your 60-66 craigslist finds
 

Found this 61’ for $12. Going to look at her tomorrow. What do you guys think. I feel it’s worth way more then that in its current state. Minor Surface rust above window and on bottom of doors he says. 350 with a Muncie 4 speed with Bluetooth radio 🤙🏻

Re: Post your 60-66 craigslist finds
 

Minor surface rust above which window? If it's the front windshield it's probably a lot worse than it looks. On my 61 I had to replace of above the windshield and the inside was a lot worse than you could see from the outside. Each area with surface rust showing a very lite push with a screwdriver or other sharp object would go right through.

Re: Post your 60-66 craigslist finds
 

Yeah that’s what I’m afraid of. How difficult is it to replace The sheet metal above the windshield?

Re: Post your 60-66 craigslist finds
 

It's not fun. The outside piece above the windshield is reproduced but mine was about a half inch too narrow. I had to replace the inside panel as well but is not reproduced for 60-63. I used a 64-66 piece that I cut the ends off. It was easier for my truck to have the roof skin off to get to it. Yes you could do it with the roof on. So on my truck it was the piece above the windshield, inside and out and the roof skin. If my truck wasn't a bbw and my grandad's truck I probably would have looked for another cab.

Re: Post your 60-66 craigslist finds
 

Yeah it doesn’t sound like fun. I can probably pick it up for 11,500. It’sa beautiful truck. DD at that. For the price would it be worth taking the chance of it being worse than expected.

Re: Post your 60-66 craigslist finds
 

If you think finding a decent survivor pickup is tough, try finding an intact period camper! They are made of flimsy materials and are prone to physical damage, termites, and rot. That camper looks good! I'd grab it if it were near me!

66 GMC short stepside
 

I'm a 67-72 guy, but just saw this 66 GMC posted local to me on CraigsList so I thought to post for anyone interested.

Ad states it's a California truck, so it may not be the typical East Coast rust nightmare.
