Looks like a '70 to '76 7500 model.

Strange it has no Cab Lights on the Roof.

Never saw one without Cab Lights before.

Good eye. I didn't pick up on that. I'd like to see a view of the top.

You could make your money back on that! Apple season is coming!

That's a nice truck. I'd like to own it.

C10 - C90 Bill · 06-26-2011, 12:32 PM

That is a nice truck. At 24,000 GVW it's what I would call a heavy medium, just under CDL.

Bill

Biscayne Stocker · 06-26-2011, 10:24 PM

This is the truck Im workin on. Its a 1972 C/50 rollback. Im putting in a 427 with an AT 540 Allison Automatic and Factory A/C. Scott

Mayo · 06-26-2011, 10:33 PM

thats pretty cool

thirdstreettito · 06-26-2011, 11:30 PM

I hope you're putting in a hopped up 427, that would be sweet! 400-700hp!

Very cool! I can't wait to see more progress on this one.

C10 - C90 Bill · 06-27-2011, 08:59 AM

Nice looking Rollback.

Bill

Biscayne Stocker · 06-27-2011, 02:59 PM

It looks like junk now. LOL. Im too picky. This truck has turned into a bigger project then I wanted it to. But I figured what the hell. I own a restoration shop. So I am gonna end up taking the cab off of the frame and doing a nut and bolt restoration on it. At first I just wanted to clean it up a little and drive it. But things never turn out that way you plan. Thanks for all the kind words everyone. I did start a build thread, its titled 72 C/50. So check it out. Love the site. Thanks Scott Chalk

Time to bring this thread back........

Found on my travels at work....

thirdstreettito · 10-18-2011, 01:53 PM

Nice! Needs some TLC. But very sweet.

**special-K** · 10-19-2011, 09:20 AM

Not too shabby! Without seeing more,I'm guessing it's a '70. It'll be a 366 motor is original.

C10 - C90 Bill · 10-19-2011, 09:54 AM

It's got Spoke Wheels, but not the heavy wide axel. The GVW could be as high as 24,000. Looks like a tough 'ol truck.

Bill

Petie724x4 · 10-30-2011, 07:59 PM

Another day at the office, another find...

C10 - C90 Bill · 10-30-2011, 08:23 PM

If the Tilt Front Nose is original, it looks like about a '74 Chevy.

With that Long Chassis, it would make a nice Heavy Duty Rollback.

The GVW should be around 50,000.

Bill

**special-K** · 10-31-2011, 07:40 AM

I wonder what is original on that body. I'm thinking the doors and front end are replaced,or someone has an odd flair for fashion with that 2-tone job. I love a tandem flatbed or rollback. I'd have to look hard for something heavy enough to need it for,though. I always did want to start collecting antique construction equipment...heh heh

I never showed this '70 C/60 near me I was wishing I could buy. The 366 purred like a kitten:

C10 - C90 Bill · 10-31-2011, 07:32 PM

Pretty nice truck. The great thing about buying a Road Tractor is that it will definitely have Air Brakes. Picture that truck all done over with a Pick-Up Bed on the back of it. I don't believe I ever saw a "Pick-Up" with Air Brakes. It would be one pretty cool truck.

Bill

**special-K** · 11-01-2011, 07:38 AM

I keep hearing how it sounded. Just a ice tight low tone. Once the compressor warmed up and stopped farting It was so quiet under the hood. I think I'd want to keep it as a tractor and find a small Rogers low-boy or Landoll (tilt bed) and use it like a rollback. It's all there and unmolested,right down to the tail and reverse lights. Picture that thing hauling a fifth wheel camper. I actually have a line on a big one from this era.
