WIW - my 67 C30 dump

This is one of our work trucks, and I think it's time to get into something newer. I don't trust my employees driving it (it's not a work truck to me, it's my 1967 Chevy), and we could use something a little bigger and with 4x4.
Here is a little history on it:
I purchased in January 2009.
Installed hydroboost and disk brakes from a 1975 onto the truck in April 2011. All wear components were replaced including rotors, calipers, pads, tie rods, etc. It was aligned at the same time. Probably $800 or so into this.
August 2011 new hydraulic pump and tank and really got dump working well. $1,650.
October 2013 powdercoated 7 16" wheels and had 6 new Firestone TransForce tires installed and one used one on the 7th wheel.
August 2014 adjusted rear brakes, new rear brake cylinders, new rear brake studs (9/16" vs original 1/2".
Along the way it has gotten a new carb, HEI, radiator, water pump, radiator hoses, spark plugs, wires, rear lights and wiring, receiver hitch, battery, etc.
I love this truck, it drives very nice with the hydroboost. You aren't going to break any land speed records, but it will work for you. You can remove the side, the tall sides will remove leaving short sides, and they will remove up to the steel leaving you with a good portion of flat bed.
You may see buddy buckets in there, it would sell with the bench seat, not the buddy buckets.
