powerglide tranny in our trucks? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**67sss** · 05-17-2004, 12:11 AM

how many 67-72 came with the slipnslide tranny? or should I say, does anybody else have one in their truck?

I've seen one in a 68 C-10 was for sale locally some time ago.

Mostly a pre 69 thing, although, some were made with the slip and slide in 69 and 70. (so I am told)

I have a '70 that was originally ordered with a 2 speed. It's still in there for now, but it's starting to slip pretty bad and I have a fresh 350TH sitting on the garage floor so the 2 speed won't be in there for much longer.

I have one in my '67 stepside behind the 283 but I do not think it was original since the engine is in the 6 slot. Somebody painted over the options list so I have no way of knowing. The engine is pre-'68, I believe (no valve cover filler).

I know a guy over here that has a 68 with a powerglide.

I had one in my 69, but changed to a TH400.

Deuce · 05-17-2004, 11:38 AM

I have one in the 68 I'm shortning

I have one in my '67

This is OT but do any of you have a good powerglide for sale?

**67sss** · 05-17-2004, 05:34 PM

Yes I do, still attached to this big window 3/4t 2 wd 67 longbed. Lotsa rust motor just took a dump, you can have the whole thing for $500. You could(I wouldn't) even drive it away....I have it parked on the edge of the property.

67sss
My 71 has one
It looks as though it was ordered that way. It is listed on the option sheet in the glove box. I think that 71 was the last year it was offered as an option.
Someone must have put a shift-kit in it cause it will downshift at about 25mph.
Coupled with the trailing arm rear suspension, it works great for hauling the boat.
My 68 came with one but it was replaced somewhere along the way with a T/H 350.
Check the typo on the BLUE CLOTH TIRM

I will be listing the powerglide and 6 cyl out of my 67 very soon

I'm not sure what they are worth though?
Ran perfect before the accident took it off the motor mounts

I have a 1971 C10 that has a straight six with powerglide. The darn thing has front disc brakes and posi rear axle. Quite a strange combination of parts that came out from GM.
