my 57 4x4 is it a napco
 

hi im new and from new zealand,one of my trucks i have imported is a 57 4x4,
i have read all the napco sites listed in a earlier thread,it looks factory but i
want to be sure,i have been trying to attach photos to show everything but
have had no luck over the last half hour.maybe if someone could help and let me email the photos to them they could put them up for me or tell me how to.
thanks dave

I'll be glad to post the for you. Send them to awriser@yahoo.com. I worked on mine a little today, trying to start it after sitting for 15 years. No luck today(no fire). Maybe tomorrow.

Looks like a Napco to me. Is it a 3100? 6 lug wheels?
Here is the way that I posted the pictures- First, I had to shrink them, because they were too large to post here, so I right clicked on the pic, left clicked "open with"--->"paint". Left click "sketch/skew", downsized horizontal and verticle to 70%. I then left clicked on "file", left clicked on "save as", then renamed the pic. I did each pic this way. Sometimes you have to go smaller also. There are other ways to do it I'm sure, but that works for me.

Thanks for doing that,its a 3200 and is 8 stud, its has a long bed and has a hump in the chassis,is there anything else that will help to find out if its a napco,i bought it on ebay and it had no title so had to get a new one before shipping,it has a new tag on the door pillar,there was two marks where the old tags where(one large and one small)
but they where removed when i got a new title.i saw numbers on the transfer case will they help.i might sell it later but need to know ,i cant sell it as a napco if its not.
im straight up with people buying my cars or pickups.thanks for any help you can give me.

I would love to help, but I'm new to Napcos myself. If I understand correctly, Napco made all 4x4s for GM back in those days???? So, if yours is original, which it appears to be, it is a Napco. Mine has no decals or tags to identify it as a Napco either, that I have found. I haven't recieved my title yet, so I can't help you there either.

It's the best NAPCO website I have found.

Does the axle have NAPCO in raised letters on the long tube like you see in this pic?

If it has 8 lug wheels it should be a 3/4 ton, the front axle looks to be an original NAPCO unit. It looks exactly like mine, which I know is an original '58 NAPCO; my dad bought it new in '58! The hump in the frame over the rear axle would make it a 3/4 ton
