1969 GMC with the "Jack" trim package - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

While browsing Craigslist I came across an older add for a "rust free" 1969 GMC C10 that was fully disassembled. The cab, front fenders, doors, frame, hood, and most of the interior parts are present and all for 300 bucks. After getting hold of the elderly man(Jack) I get directions to his farm in McKinney. This farm is awesome. I feel like one of the guys from American Pickers in this place. Years upon years of stuff is just everywhere. It was hard to concentrate on the truck with so many cool things around. The frame has been outside for quite some time but is intact which is more that what can be said about mine(see build thread). The cab has been in the barn for ten years and there are apparently two holes in the barns roof that have allowed water to drip on the windshield seal lip for all that time and rust free it defiantly is not but hey there is alot of stuff here for 300 bucks. So we make a deal and its all mine for 250 dollars with the title. The best part is that his name is painted on the doors

So now I have a frame to Z and C-channel! Not sure what im going to do with the cab or most of the other parts i might start selling some of the things I dont need. I would like to see if I could get the original radio working.

He is also giving me the fenders from his 41 Ford pickup that is long gone, have no clue what to do with them but they are cool

Jack said he bought the trailer in the picture from a Sears & Roebuck catalog in 1931 for 35 dollars and he still uses it (it has a flat atm). That thing would make one kick ass rat rod truck bed. Check out the antique jack holding it up!

Welcome to the site! Good to see all of those parts will get some use instead of just rotting away.
