What is this under the dash? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Look at this 67 farm truck under the dash. I don't think that's an AC unit. It looks like a heater? Anyone recognize it?

67-72 heaters are plenty fine for OK winters. By the way I have a 67 this color combo and I have seen quite a few like this. Vermillion red with a white cap.

Aftermarket AC unit?

67Fleet · 10-17-2006, 03:09 PM

Bigazz Cb Radio...

Longhorn Man · 10-17-2006, 03:12 PM

While I don't see any signs of a camper ever being on it, it kinda looks like the radio for talking to the ppl in the camper. The dealer had that as an accesory back then... but I'm nowhere near certian on this.

67ChevyRedneck · 10-17-2006, 03:15 PM

Ok, with the much bigger picture.... definately NOT an aftermarket AC unit

glock35ipsc · 10-17-2006, 03:20 PM

Yeah, I was thinking some sort of real old two-way. Old tube-type transceiver?

ghetto_superman · 10-17-2006, 04:49 PM

that truck has seen better days...

qksilver · 10-17-2006, 05:46 PM

it's for talking to space ships.........lots of wide open spaces out there, good for landings

Were all 67 cab interiors silver like that? I've seen two 67's in local junkyards in central OK, a green one and a red one, and both had that silver-grey interior like this has.

Too bad about the dent in the front right, otherwise, its got some posibilities.

1969k10stepside · 10-17-2006, 07:12 PM

I wonder why it doesn't run?

Most colored trucks do have the silver(fawn) inerior but I've never seen it with a white colored exterior truck. Most white trucks I see are either blue or red inside, metal and everything. By 1968 the metal inside was the color of the outside.
I do have a blue 67 with blue interior. With that being said I've never seen a blue 67 with that silver(fawn) interior. I have a parts truck that is factory blue inside and that same vermillion red as this ebay truck on the outside!! When was the last time you saw that combo factory?

**John Fabris** · 10-18-2006, 11:42 AM

Hey davidh, add green to that list!!! I just parted out a 67 longbed chevy, and it was white on the outside, green on the inside.

My 67 swb (avatar) was white outside with the blue interior.

el curioso · 10-19-2006, 12:03 AM

after reserching I found that that thing at the bottom of the dash is a nuclear reactor used topower an electric shaver.

LOL, that sounded like if I actually knew what I was speaking about!!

**Ron 586** · 10-19-2006, 12:54 AM

The seller said it is a converter for making 12v 110v. It is in the ask the seller a question.
