Ebay: '68 50th SWB 4x4

If it's true, that would be one unique truck with a little buffing.

Re: Ebay: '68 50th SWB 4x4

I saw one like that at Pomona a few yrs back. It was not a 4 x 4, but it had a big block and buddy buckets. Dude wanted almost 10 G for it!

This one looks like no reserve, which is cool. Hope someone gets it and restores it.

Re: Ebay: '68 50th SWB 4x4

Something just doesn't look right to me though... the frame doesn't match up with the bed. Possibly Blazer frame?

Not saying it's not legit, but definitely a true find if it pans out.

Re: Ebay: '68 50th SWB 4x4

The front hub looks like a later model, and the VIN on the jam does indicate 4 wheel drive.

Cheap enough, could be a sweet working truck again.

Re: Ebay: '68 50th SWB 4x4

I think it may be legit. It is a '68 or older frame (look at the steering box). I bet the rear wheel being off is from a busted main leaf or centerbolt. Not sure on the front axle, It's too cold and dark to go look at my bone pile to verify

Door jamb VIN matches glove box sticker VIN and that lists the 4x4 front axle. I think that it's legit.

Re: Ebay: '68 50th SWB 4x4

It looks legit to me. If it was a blazer frame, it would hitting the wheelwell. Most swb 4x4's tend to sit closer to the front like that instead of directly centered. This is a rare bird, would love to see someone get this from the board. Trevor

Awesome, I couldn't wait to tear into it either. Are the tow hooks listed on the SPID? I hope you do a build thread.

Whats up with the galapagos turtle in the bed?
