cool -but it does not look like a V8 diesel - probably a typo. Did GM even make a small 4 or 8 cylinder diesel back in 67? Would that be a powerglide behind it for the 2 speed trans?

It's a Toro-Flow. Looks cool, I need one!

That`s what I thought it was BosS.I`d like to see more.I`d like to see what he`s using for the hi/lo.That`s not a`67 clip,I don`t think it was built in`67.Maybe the toroflo conversion.

Killer Deal

It's a small window cab with newer longhorn sheetmetal. Maybe a Cab/Chassie dually axle the way the rear tires are tucked under the bed? I'm guessing maybe a 6cly out of a large delivery truck? But then I don't know a whole lot about that kind of stuff. I bet it would tow anyting your brave enough to hook to.

Steering column is fudged up. That would get to be a PITA after a while.

**Bob B.** · 03-13-2006, 06:40 PM

It's a V-6 Toroflow, 351 or 478.

72armyswbtruck · 03-13-2006, 06:45 PM

That looks cool, what makes it not a 67 GMC though? How can you tell from the picture?

JAKES 68GMC · 03-13-2006, 07:32 PM

The grill and the hood prove its not a 67. Tha cab may be a 67 though.

Guys, from the looks of it he's running a 4spd backed by a Brownie 2spd. Never was around a Toro-Flow, but I haven't heard much good about them. A few were around in New Idea Uni systems, but I haven't found anyaround in in them or trucks. But if they run like a gas V-6 I'd certainly want one!
