67-72 c20 3/4 ton 4x4 chassis - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Utegg33 · 06-24-2017, 07:37 PM

My grandfather and I are planning on restoring an old tow truck he used for the family auto body business, but it needs a new frame. We've looked high and low for one but can't seem to find one. It's a 1972 c20 3/4 ton 4x4 long bed. If anyone has any ideas or leads please let me know!

I don't know how correct you want this restoration to be, but you can convert a 2wd chassis. You can swap the necessary pieces over. Of course, best to start with a coil rear Chassis

Maybe this is the answer to your dilemma.
