A really sweet 68 convertible! Or at least that's how it's being advertised.

OK now don't everyone run up the auction price on me now!

I saw that the other night. I still can't figure out exactly which part is from a 68 Chevy, and fleetside??

Project1970 · 12-03-2002, 02:21 PM

I guess the frame might be from '68...regardless....UGH....

yellowgmc · 12-03-2002, 02:26 PM

uhhhhhh wtf!?!?! that is close to the fugliest truck i've ever seen. to each their own i guess. glad it's not mine!!

*Shane* · 12-03-2002, 02:40 PM

hee hee ... looks like the old Dodge Ram / Mitsubishi mini truck ....

ChevLoRay · 12-03-2002, 03:51 PM

It AIN'T no Chevy...unless the wheels came off of one. 4-cyl? 4-speed? Notch in the seat, squared-off instrument panel....hey! It's Japanese!!!! Funny, tho. Looks like the Japanese managed to make a '68 Chevy look like a Mitsubishi/Dodge Ram 50 to me, too.

Whoever is trying to pass this off as a Chevrolet of any kind should be ashamed.

I just looked at the pics. Is that a beer keg in the bed?!! I guess you would need that to get up the courage to drive that thing in public.

Seriously though, toms68cst I think you would be very happy with it and have a wonderful...I'm sorry, I can't stop thinking about the keg/gas tank!

toms68cst · 12-03-2002, 05:08 PM

LOL Long, I wonder if he'd consider a trade?

Hmmm, The VIN looks like a legit number. My guess is he got the wrong pictures with the auction. After seeing that truck above, I don't want to see the real 68 convertible.

Someone e-mail that seller and ask him what the deal is! At least give him a lesson in spotting 67-72's

mooneyes · 12-03-2002, 07:26 PM

i was thinking it looked like a chevy luv truck..but i didnt think they made them till like 74 but im not sure..am i the only one who remembers the luv truck???you know before the s-10

DanoDMano · 12-03-2002, 07:31 PM

HMM....Butt ugly comes to mind!!!

*Randy70C-10* · 12-03-2002, 07:36 PM

Yeah, I remember those. Even the Chevy Luv looked better than that thing. I emailed the seller.

*Gee_Emm* · 12-03-2002, 07:52 PM

The front looks kinda Renault ish

I don't know how he came up with a 68 chevy?????????

Lightspeed · 12-03-2002, 08:55 PM

i had an 86 dodge power ram 50, and the front end of that truck looks exactly like my old one. (was actually a mitsu with dodge badging)

Lightspeed · 12-03-2002, 08:57 PM

just looked at the auction pics and judging by the interior thats exactly what it is. an old mitsu/dodge mini truck. older than 86 tho. maybe 83 or 84
