I have stopped to look at a '68 1/2-ton GMC. It's a LWB, 6-cyl/3 on the tree. It's lemon yellow with white top, radio and nothing else. It's got 69K showing on the clock. It has a Missouri inspection decal on the windshield. The rockers need replaced. The rear step bumper is trash. But, it seems to be as solid as you'd expect a farm truck to be that seems to have been in a barn or shed. The bed has to go; the tailgate seems okay at glance. The fawn-colored interior is decent but the seat cover isn't original. Glass is good. Grille is good. Seller seems to be flexible on his $1K asking price. If it was a SWB, it would have "patina", but I told him that as a LWB truck...it needs paint.

Oh, I didn't see an SPID on the glove box door. Was that just a Chevy thing? You'd think I'd know the answer, but I don't.

Thoughts? Yeah, I know you want pix. Tomorrow, okay?
