67 1/2 ton 2wd. Purchased in dec. 66 for $2,728.

lukecp · 04-21-2004, 06:19 PM

Double ouch....check out the GMC behind it

It does look pretty complete though....

**too much stuff** · 04-21-2004, 06:22 PM

There is not a useable body panel on it!

**too much stuff** · 04-21-2004, 06:27 PM

Worst part is, it has been parked since 1979 and has 106,xxx miles on odometer. 283 engine, manual throttle, 3:73 posi-trac. Engine is stuck now.

**too much stuff** · 04-21-2004, 06:31 PM

Last for now, no crying! I did save it from the crusher.

shortymac83 · 04-21-2004, 06:39 PM

who stole my truck!

Yeah, if it was red, that'd pretty much be my truck.

Stingray42 · 04-21-2004, 10:09 PM

geeez, is that ur place? lots of trucks there....

*botboy* · 04-21-2004, 11:50 PM

You wanna sell the 3.73 positrac? If so how much?

sakohntr · 04-22-2004, 12:28 AM

U know where that manual throttle is going dont ya?

Longhorn Man · 04-22-2004, 12:43 AM

Pretty interesting, if it was purchased in december of 66, then it is probably a november or december build date. (is the birthday sticker still in the drivers door jamb?) Look at the VIN on that sucker....sequential number of 13770! DAYAM they were being cranked out.

Warbones · 04-22-2004, 12:54 AM

The guages/bezal looks in good shape. Any cracks? For sale? How can you tell it's a posi? I need to check mine. lol

Longhorn Man~ Can you go into a little more detail on the info of when thet were built? I would like to find out when mine.

highboy_04 · 04-22-2004, 12:58 AM

its says its posi on the option sheet

Longhorn Man · 04-22-2004, 01:05 AM

He said it was purchased in December of 66.
On an original truck, there should be a birthday sticker in the drivers door jamp...on the door its self.
Other than that, it is a crap shoot onless you know the sequential numbers so well that you can pick out what month it was built from that...and I highly doubt anyone knows the trucks that well. Some Camaro nuts or Chevelle freaks who memorize VIN and body tag numbers might learn them...but I don't think any of us can read them that well.
here is a pic of the Longhorn's birthday sticker.

Blue Beard · 04-22-2004, 08:44 AM

It's a shame she's gone that far....but at least you saved her..

boraxman · 04-22-2004, 10:17 AM

Nothing there that cant be fixed.

71-longbed · 04-22-2004, 12:16 PM

thats one massive rear bumper

im pretty sure there should be a date on the back of the instr. panel ...printing on the circuit

**MJN** · 04-22-2004, 02:15 PM

**too much stuff** · 04-22-2004, 07:57 PM
