Good deal? 68 4x4
 

Hey guys,
I'm a new member and wanted your opinion on my truck.I bought
it on ebay for $927 REALLY!It is a real fac.4x4 long bed 350 eng.
4spd,spicer transfer case,it now has 85 axles>10 bolt frt&rear.

Welcome to the board from Tennessee.

Good find for the price. The 350 isn't factory, it wasn't introduced until 69, but you got a smokin deal, especially since the newer axels have front disk brakes.

Hey there dtlilly
Yeh it had a 292ci or at least thats what the glove box says

hell ya you got a good deal, if it runs and drives and its a 4x4 its usually worth 1000 bucks reguardless of how the body is, and that body doesnt look all that bad

It has a little cancer but I've been buying parts.It also has been
changed to power steering but still has the drum brake master
cyl.&metering valve pedal is awful hard!!!

You got a great deal. I am in northern Indiana, would have gladly driven to your area for what you paid. GMC Paul is in Rockville, and they have all kinds of parts for these trucks, and you can get almost anything else you need on this board also. If you change your mind about fixing let me know. Welcome another Hoosier to the board!

Welcome to the board from SW Washinton State.........

Do you know much about the 85 axles in her...........

Someone on the board was asking about the possibility of a change like that.........bolt in or what was changed..?

Welcome to the board from south Mississippi. Looks like you got a good project start. Jou just gotta change that white stuff of yours in. Makes it rough work working on them! :D

Welcome To The Board! Nice Score Too!

Welcome to the board from southern oregon... Nice score on a truck that is getting hard to find these day's....

Welcome to the board from CT, and that is a great find and price. 4x4's are hard to find.

Congrats on the purchase, thats a great deal you got, I didn't see that one for sale on Ebay I must of missed it, Welcome from Kansas.

nice truck welcome from louisiana

cool truck...it's nice that the disc brakes were swapped in for you.

your transfer case should be a Rockwell T-221, 2 speed, all gear drive.

any more pics?

nice
 

nice find there for that price it was well worth the money:metal:

:)
You are right it is a 221 t-case>not sure about the ratio in the
axles but it seems higher than my 79 with3.73s The guy I bought
it from told me they were from a 85 I have had it a while>that's
why you didn't see it on ebay.A friend told me about the junk&
parts car section on ebay stuff seems to go cheaper there>I
guess not too many know about it.The guy said it's cheaper to
list a car there than the regular truck area.Thanks for the warm welcome this is a great site!! :)

I have another question, anybody know the color name and # for
this truck? It is on the glove box door but I can't read it, I can
make out something about red/white but no #'s Is in on the VIN
or a cowl tag,(is there a cowl tag)? It's kinda orangey/red.
Thanks
