That truck is a true gem. You have to try to make it up to the Tri-State (ATHS) show outside of Winchester the end of September. That goes for anyone else near enough.

Tim, Right that is John, the owner of the Stovebolt site. I haven't made it to Winchester yet, but I have seen pictures. It is about 3 1/2 hours from me but I hope to get there someday. Are you an online member on those sites too?

That '70 6500 is a nice truck. It's got the Wide Fenders and heavy Front Axel. I believe I can see a Red Button attached to the shifter, which would indicate a 2-Speed Rear. With that short WB, it could be an old Road Tractor. I'd be guessing on the engine, but it could be a 401 V-6.

I'm surprised the motor isn't mentioned. I am registered on The Stovebolt Page but rarely get there. I don't think I have ever posted there. I seem to be stuck here :cool:. I'm a member of the ATHS.

Here's one of Lane's old GMC 9500s,#6,running up the mountain on Rt 211 west of Sperryville,VA up to Skyline Drive...871/13spd:

I took that ride a few times last year. In my '92 K3500 and on my Harley. I'd sure love a ride like that one. Just imaging hauling a camper on or behind one traveling the country...dream on.

Nice tilt bed for sale in the Dakotas:

Nice trucks. That 4wd is cool. Here's the tank truck on duty at the Line Mt.7-Miler off road race we go to in Sept. It's very nice:

The Orange Tanker has Air Brakes.

The Tan truck with the Orange Van Body has a set of wheels that I've never seen before. Also notice the Hood. It looks like the whole thing lifts off.

Yeah,looks like some odd kind of axles under it. My first thought was wondering if it was Mexican or other foreign built truck. Maybe even a swapped body?

That is a nice truck. At 24,000 GVW it's what I would call a heavy medium, just under CDL.

It looks like junk now. LOL. Im too picky. This truck has turned into a bigger project then I wanted it to. But I figured what the hell. I own a restoration shop. So I am gonna end up taking the cab off of the frame and doing a nut and bolt restoration on it. At first I just wanted to clean it up a little and drive it. But things never turn out that way you plan. Thanks for all the kind words everyone. I did start a build thread, its titled 72 C/50. So check it out. Love the site. Thanks Scott Chalk

Re: 67-72 C/K/T-40's-90's!
 
Not too shabby! Without seeing more,I'm guessing it's a '70. It'll be a 366 motor is original.

C10 - C90 Bill 10-19-2011 09:54 AM

Re: 67-72 C/K/T-40's-90's!
 
It's got Spoke Wheels, but not the heavy wide axel. The GVW could be as high as 24,000. Looks like a tough 'ol truck.

If the Tilt Front Nose is original, it looks like about a '74 Chevy.

With that Long Chassis, it would make a nice Heavy Duty Rollback.

The GVW should be around 50,000.

I wonder what is original on that body. I'm thinking the doors and front end are replaced,or someone has an odd flair for fashion with that 2-tone job. I love a tandem flatbed or rollback. I'd have to look hard for something heavy enough to need it for,though. I always did want to start collecting antique construction equipment...heh heh

I never showed this '70 C/60 near me I was wishing I could buy. The 366 purred like a kitten:

Re: 67-72 C/K/T-40's-90's!
 
Pretty nice truck. The great thing about buying a Road Tractor is that it will definitely have Air Brakes. Picture that truck all done over with a Pick-Up Bed on the back of it. I don't believe I ever saw a "Pick-Up" with Air Brakes. It would be one pretty cool truck.

Bill

special-K 11-01-2011 07:38 AM

Re: 67-72 C/K/T-40's-90's!
 
I keep hearing how it sounded. Just a ice tight low tone. Once the compressor warmed up and stopped farting It was so quiet under the hood. I think I'd want to keep it as a tractor and find a small Rogers low-boy or Landoll (tilt bed) and use it like a rollback. It's all there and unmolested,right down to the tail and reverse lights. Picture that thing hauling a fifth wheel camper. I actually have a line on a big one from this era.
