1970 Big Block swb truck $500 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**JQ-72** · 01-26-2006, 11:21 PM

Well, sort of...1970 Chevy (with GMC front cap) swb truck. I picked this up at a local wrecker service - a victim of the junk vehicle law!!!

It has a Olds or Pontiac ?? big block motor with TH400 trans. Motor is not locked up. No ps, pb, or a/c. Frame is not bent and is very solid. Bedsides are straight, but 1 inside panel is rusted through. Can't tell much about the floor for all the junk in it! According to the glovebox decal it was a 307 automatic truck.

$500 in NW AL.

Josh,
hows it going? Thats definately a pontiac. Pontiac's have 4 bolt valve covers and the distributor is in the back but does not go through the intake manifold.

**BAD4X4** · 01-30-2006, 09:48 PM

Too far away..... DARN IT!!!!!! That's a good price, somebody buy this thing.

boundstaffpress · 01-31-2006, 04:36 PM

You'll be glad to know that you've got a "rare" quad headlight option.

anybody got any recomandations for shipping somthing like this ? 1027 miles 16.5 hours acording to map quest.

stllookn · 02-02-2006, 04:44 AM

Buy a good tow dolly in AL and get it under the truck. Have board members move it about 100 miles at a time at there leisure. You will get it eventually.

wibilly · 02-02-2006, 12:13 PM

anybody used amtrack or do thy require it be a running vehicle?

**JQ-72** · 02-02-2006, 07:07 PM

OK, how about $400? If it doesn't sell in a few days, it will go on ebay. I've got to move this quick - I found a steal on a 71 Cheyenne and 72 Blazer and have to come up with some dough fast!!! Also check out the deal on the tach cluster on the parts board
