Re: 68 k-20 4x4 panel/ambulance
I`d be tempted to hi-jack that thing if they picked me up in it.

Re: 68 k-20 4x4 panel/ambulance
That thing's pretty rare. Production was something like in the double digits, IIRC. I'd restore that BONE STOCK.

Re: 68 k-20 4x4 panel/ambulance
It was about 4 years ago when we last had a 4X4 panel show up here.
I'm guessing less than 50 of those were made. That one looks to be in very nice shape.

Re: 68 k-20 4x4 panel/ambulance
IIRC,around 250 4x4 panels were made in the 67-72 era.If you find one grab it,I would choose one over a original gen 1 2wd blazer any day

Re: 68 k-20 4x4 panel/ambulance
There was one for sale at Charlotte in the fall.4X4 4speed and 250 6 cyl.The paint was blue and was still off gassing.(You could smell it because it was so new)They had a price of $7,500.00 on it.Looked good inside but was just a panel not an Ambulance.I wish I had of had the $$$.

Re: 68 k-20 4x4 panel/ambulance
I`d insist we stop by the body shop to get that eye injury looked at before we got to the emergency room to deal with my injuries.

Re: 68 k-20 4x4 panel/ambulance
i posted on here a few years back about a 68 panel, 1/2 ton 4x4 that was in a wrecking yard here in the bay area. Bill at vintage chevy truck in fremont ended up buying it so it wouldn't get crushed. rare indeed.
