1967 C30 Napco 4x4 questions
 

I'm a newbie to the Napco conversions so any information is appreciated. Just found a 67 c30 Napco truck for sale not too far from me it's a 4 speed with 292 and power brakes has snowplow and dump bed still being used for winter. Has typical illinois rust but is solid. 4wd motor transmission are all good. Is there much desire for these? And how rare are they? Thank you for any guidance

They are rare I have only seen a few posted on here. I know where one is here in ontario but its pretty rotten. Its a neat truck but not somthing i would want to travel far in.

That is a nice looking truck just begging to be restored .

Re: 1967 C30 Napco 4x4 questions
 

There are a few of us that have talked about this truck .I have talked to the different owners and have some history. I have photos if your wanting more info.

Thanks

What kind of price are they wanting they are a pretty rare item. It is not something you might drive everyday, I think it is probably geared pretty low.

With that being said i would love to add a 4x4 to my list of trucks to build. I have 5or 6 to work on I haven't counted them lately. Jim

Check out the NAPCO forum, although you have to join to access the forum. Good picture gallery as well.

Super rare and desirable do not always go hand in hand. With a 292 and 5.13 gears it isn't a "driver" in any sense. Nor is it the ideal tow truck chassis the current seller was thinking. If you want a pet or an around the ranch GP dump and plow then have at it.

This truck has been for sale for years off and on. Like Crewcab59 said, right at a year ago was the last time I looked into it for someone.

OHHHHHH !! I want it if you don't !!! just what I've been looking for ...:chevy:

Re: 1967 C30 Napco 4x4 questions
 

Are you considering flipping it? If it's for you, the only question should be is do you have much desire for it? I love it. It's cream of the crop material in my book. I wanted to buy that last year (fall '14) when it was on Craigslist.

Re: 1967 C30 Napco 4x4 questions
 

I have made a deal on this truck and plan on picking it up Friday , I'll keep you posted. Special k I could not agree more!! RoadTrip!!!

Re: 1967 C30 Napco 4x4 questions
 

Glad you're getting it, I also wanted this truck a few years ago.
Don't forget massive amounts of pics please.

Re: 1967 C30 Napco 4x4 questions
 

Way to go! I'm happy for you :whine:

Let me be the first to say, "If and when you should decide to sell this truck, I would appreciate it if you would please offer it to me first". I know, damn claim jumpers. Just had to make that official. I already know the reply, "Not sure you'll live that long, K" :waah:

Re: 1967 C30 Napco 4x4 questions
 

the kid an i tried planing out the trip out there when this truck was first posted. neither of us are that adventureous to do it.

i saved the pick and used it as my background for a few months.

i wander how many of these napcos were built in 67....in other words there "could be a chance to find one closer to home":smoke:

that is one serious truck i'm glad the new owner is a member here to share it with us.

it seems in the past few years as these trucks have exploded in popularity the napcos are really being found and scooped up just glad they are being saved.

pretty sure i saw a early one on cl a few months ago with a swivel frame i think in az.

there is still a 58-9 in a shed just behind my house that hasnt been out in about 3 years.

I tried yesterday as well to buy this trick...This guy was a super jerk..You must have called at a better time..I asked several questions he did not have answers for..He insisted several times that he would not do anything for free and that he was so geographic challenged that he did not know where Minneapolis,MN was..Good luck with the truck...

Re: 1967 C30 Napco 4x4 questions
 

Thanks guys!! I had it bought a half hour after finding it!! She needs a home. I'll keep you posted. Not only 516 gear but a no slip too. It'll be my new daily!! LOL:metal:

Re: 1967 C30 Napco 4x4 questions
 

Well be careful I thought I had an agreement to get it saturday

Re: 1967 C30 Napco 4x4 questions
 

I will say our conversation started off rough but he has turned out super nice , Sent any pic I ask for and cut me a heck of a deal. I think everyone is sick of jerks and scams on cl that they are on edge. I'm getting the same way, you have to put up with 5 jerks to get 1 serious person.

:metal: you are 100% correct.
but i'm gonna its more like 9 to 1 with the scammers involved.

Re: 1967 C30 Napco 4x4 questions
 

Ok.This deal does not make any sense..When I called him yesterday,all we talked about was how to get him paid..Never asked for a lower price,How do I get you $2500..He does not do paypal,cannot do credit card over the phone,not willing to do wire transfer,refused postal money order or personal check..Cash in hand and not from a transport driver.....If he sold it for less,he is an Idiot...

Re: 1967 C30 Napco 4x4 questions
 

I am sad to say it did not work out. We had a gentlemens agreement and I asked him for his "word " since it would be a day , even offered to pay in full sight unseen. He reassured me it was a deal, I had his word... Talked again this morning , seemed like a stand up guy, deal was done. Get a call at 5 and he was selling it to someone who called. I am sick!!

Re: 1967 C30 Napco 4x4 questions
 

I have to say he fooled me. I would normally never mentioned it until I had it but I was comfortable with his "word". Where I come from a man is only as good as his word. Think that says a lot here!!

Re: 1967 C30 Napco 4x4 questions
 

I too am sad. Was very happy it was going to a member here. It really sucks when your willing to give asking price, and the owner is difficult from the get-go, then sells it to someone else?, NOT A MANS MAN if you ask me!!!. Sounds like the exact fallen deal I had on a 67 GMC K2500 panel truck. Now I'm pissed off again!!! Sorry man.
