New to forum : 1964 Chevy C30 car hauler
 

Hello, name is pat, new to the forums, I just acquired a 1964 Chevy C30car hauler, has a 327 engine with 4 speed, cruise and 34000 miles on the clock, came from California, used very little, one fender was replaced and that's about all I can notice...AM FM CB stereo, rest is all original, down to the drum brakes which I have some swap questions soon, will read what is here first...thx

Been playing around with some Alcoa rims and finally today got the studs to make them fit...

Welcome to the forum Pat :D

That's a nice clean looking truck. Is that a roll bed on there?

Re: New to forum : 1964 Chevy C30 car hauler
 

hello captain Fab...thx

yes I too must admit it is a very clean truck for the year, I crawled under it and every panel edge is nice and crisp...even found 80% of the original build sheet behind seat...I thought was amazing. It is a stationary deck with huge heavy alloy ramps...

yes, the truck looks really clean.

Welcome

welcome aboard! cool truck...my dad used to have a '65 1-ton that transitioned from flat bed, to wrecker bed, to eventually car hauler....i wish we still had it....good luck & keep us posted on any progress

Re: New to forum : 1964 Chevy C30 car hauler
 

thanks to all for the replies, today I jumped in and got around the block and the voltage reg. went, so sure, truck has been sitting for years, bound to happen, so I just installed a new one and a new alternator for $55 while I was at it. Was planning on scubbing down the iterior, hasn't been done since who knows when...then will take some more pictures, and sure a shot of the shifter boot as requested...need to get it cleaned up good for the appraisal so it can go under my classic insurance and I can haul my muscle cars around and my race car to the track...

Thanks, I am about to test fit my roadrunner, duster, charger and my lifted Toyota 4x4s, and putting on air bag kit i have with arb pump in the rear for added help if needed, I would like see if my Lamborghini kit car fits but I think the dove tail would lodge the under carriage, its low. Lol

Re: New to forum : 1964 Chevy C30 car hauler
 

Man, that thing would be cool to haul my dad's 1930 2 door sedan he is finishing.

So I was looking for a set of camel bump heads that are meant for the 327 in the truck, and soon enough I found this engine...motor is a 4 bolt main 1970 350

And it had camel bump heads on it...

http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL72.../399007513.jpg

Part number #3973370...no listing in the Chevy part numbers anywhere...read somewhere maybe marine 64cc heads from yacht or GM performance over the counter heads?
