My e-bay score??? 9ft c30>> Part 2 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

72-stomper · 09-27-2006, 10:18 PM

I got the $112.50 jewel home about an hour ago. I got about 3 miles into the 22 mile trip home and she crapped out on me...I had the girlfriend tow me the rest of the way.
Ounce I got her home, After looking her over a little, The alternator belt was very loose and the battery was bad...I tightened the belt and swapped a new bat and she runs flawlessley

..
The power all drum brakes need some work. Almost puts you into the next lane when braking, and I have to pull the pedal back up withy my hand.
Ill share some pics,

Could this be an original radio?????

Unmolested

Unfortnally, I dont think there is any salavagable sheetmetal, besides the ttailgate, r f fender, cowel, and maybe, maybe, both rear fenders, box sides and floor look good also????
What do you guys think???

rare find at a great price. box sides and steps VERY hard to find as they are unique to these models and not reproduced. if you ever decide to part it let me know. congrats!

Cool truck. Several things I noticed. No radio listed on SPID sticker usually means a cowl panel without an antenna hole - hard to find. Also the 292 air cleaner is worth a bit as they are usually gone - don't give it away.

I for one would like to have that air cleaner

Coolness abounds. It's a shame Bell Cool didn't leave the name on the doors. What IS it about these 9 footers, they just have COOL written all over them! Good job Mark, you got the "gem" home. Sell all the "pricey" stuff, save the rest for ME! Hehe. Take care, Mike

take some rubbing compound to the spray paint on the doors and see if you can get the names back on doors

**Yukon Jack** · 09-28-2006, 10:14 AM

Looks like a bargain to me!

So it looks like the tow hooks are missing and there is some sort of snow plow frame or something under the front bumper? That stinks, but that is a cool truck.
