What do you guys think? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I found a 70 GMC body that was put on a '76 GMC frame. It has a newer set of holley heads. Seller states that it is solid but may need inner rockers replaced. It worries me that it needs some "minor" wiring work. It also needs an intake and carb but that is no big deal, I have those. He wants $700. I just wondered what you guys think of the truck.

IMO....I'm not too crazy about it setting on a newer frame....

if the sheetmetal is good and not all bondo i'd say $300-$400 it sounds to me like its an abandonded wet dream

Personally, IF the title is clear, I'd only offer $400 and only if the 67-72 parts are very good. I'd only offer more IF the rears & drive train is very tight & decent.

Whats with the space between the bed and the cab ? Is the body held on with zipties and bailing wire ?
