Crewsin in my 63 GMC Crew Cab - Page 4 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Wow, so sorry to hear!

DKfromIA · 05-01-2016, 02:57 AM

Unbelievable...

I'm only a state away from Kansas City. Let me know if you'd like some help loading things up. I can make the trip.

cetacean6 · 05-17-2016, 02:43 PM

Honestly I don't know what happened. Tony is the only one who knows, and he certainly isn't talking (to me anyway). I've been trying to get in touch with him for about 6 weeks but haven't heard anything back.
Too bad. This could've turned out so well for Tony. I think he would've gotten a lot of good publicity if this was handled differently.
I'm still waiting for a scope of service! That's how much non-communication I've had.

64chevycrewcab · 05-17-2016, 03:03 PM

Where is the truck now?

66-PMD-GMC · 05-17-2016, 03:14 PM

Bummer...
A real bummer

cetacean6 · 06-05-2016, 12:23 AM

In Washington State now. Leaving early in the morning for the long trip to Kansas City. Hopefully everything will be ready to go and he'll have his guys help loading everything up. Wish me luck!

Any update on the retrieval of your truck yet? I sure would like to see this completed and restored some day.

Sorry to the read the bad news.What it city in Wash. is your truck.

Johnny_Lamebridge · 06-12-2016, 12:42 PM

cetacean6, I read about your Crewcab situation when I first joined the forum. I'm really sorry to hear that your troubles are still happening.

Was there any work done to your truck, or was it just dismantled and left?

ClassicChevyAK · 09-19-2016, 07:35 PM

Hey Rob, I hope this project is still in progress - I would like to see an update! I watched it sit for many years in Alaska, and even tried to buy it once about 15 years ago. Google Earth still shows it sitting at it's old home...

likaroc13 · 06-05-2016, 01:16 PM

Wishing you the best! Keep us updated.

**aerotruk63** · 06-05-2016, 09:09 PM

Best of luck tomorrow, hope things go better.

cetacean6 · 07-26-2018, 11:21 AM

I'm in Washington State around the Quinalt area for a few days. I think it's best to let this project go. I'm going on a day trip to Mount St. Helens today, but if someone wants to pick up the pieces of this truck and all the NOS parts I have, I think I'll be willing to let it go tomorrow or Saturday. I've got 50k into this pile of parts (including shipping from Alaska and to/from Tony).
I'll check my PM's tonight for offers.

jonzcustomshop · 07-26-2018, 11:31 AM

that is too bad, I really hoped you could get it done.
did tony ever do anything to it besides disassemble it?

I sure hope somebody buys this!! I would love to see this awesome Crew Cab completely restored someday.

cetacean6 · 07-28-2018, 08:57 AM

I didn’t get any activity here, so I’ll probably post this truck on Craigslist today. I go back to Hawaii on Wednesday and am hoping someone can grab the truck before then.

jonzcustomshop · 07-28-2018, 07:26 PM

I copied the c/l ad and cross posted the link to the 6 or 8 facebook sites that I am on, hope that helps! btw that seems like a screamin deal, wish I had the funds-it would be me.

cetacean6 · 07-29-2018, 12:36 PM

Sold! To someone who has done this before and knows what they are getting themselves into. I look forward to seeing the end product!
Thanks for everyone's help throughout this ordeal. The people on this board are awesome!

Glad to hear! Is the new owner a member here?

jonzcustomshop · 07-29-2018, 04:55 PM

good to hear! if you get shots of it done please post them here if the new buyer isn't a board member.

cetacean6 · 04-27-2012, 01:54 AM

The truck arrived in Washington State a couple of days ago. I just got these pictures about an hour ago.
it's got a 351E, which means this motor was put in sometime after 1966....

The door logos say California, it has Alaska plates and now it's in Hawaii. Is it in the witness relocation program or something?

Very cool!
