I've seen like 3 of em. Very rare. Good find!

Bishops Trucks · 07-01-2008, 01:33 PM

Could be a fun project.

**fine69** · 07-01-2008, 01:48 PM

Had a 67 Short wheel base a few years ago.

Very fun. They steer sort of wierd. Since you are in effect sitting over the front wheel. Took some getting used to.

I will have another one day.

fatboys69 · 07-01-2008, 01:49 PM

Buy it, SLAM IT and tuck 18's and 20's under it !!!!!! It would be killer !!!!!

**raggedjim** · 07-01-2008, 03:10 PM

Hmmm, 5-lugger. Is it a straight axle or a-arm setup in the front?

PanelDeland · 07-01-2008, 05:28 PM

My buddy had a cargo one in the 70's.IIRC most came with a 6 cyl/3 speed.They do steer a little funny at first but his was very dependable.I'm just glad it couldn't talk but it doesn't matter now.That statute of limitations thing,ya know.

VanceH · 07-01-2008, 05:31 PM

Back in the day i had a 68 panel!! Loved it a lot then someone hit it at about 30 and crushed one side

thirdstreettito · 07-01-2008, 08:07 PM

I'd put a ProCharged 305 in it and smoke some rice!

67_C-30 · 07-01-2008, 08:18 PM

I can't begin to tell ya'll how bad I want a short panel! I love those things!!!

No doubt!

**oldgold70c10** · 07-01-2008, 08:41 PM

Awesome pictures. Didn't these use basically a 1/2 ton truck frame underneath? Would be cool to have one......someday!

67_C-30 · 07-01-2008, 08:46 PM

I don't think so. Most of the early ones have straight front axles IIRC.

PanelDeland · 07-01-2008, 09:01 PM

One thing I do remember about them is that the door on the side was optional.You could get it or not or BOTH ,one to a side.Very few were equipted with both sides.IIRC it was only available on the cargo models and I've only seen one.It was from that owner that I heard they were available on both sides.I wonder if he was yanking my chain?

tcb-1 · 07-01-2008, 09:21 PM

James,
your right. they only came with a straight, leaf sprung front end.

I remember the janitorial service truck in my elementary school had one. thought they were "weird" then, but now I kind of dig them now.

sdkid · 07-01-2008, 10:49 PM

I had a '66 in high school. Wasn't cool enough then. Wish I had it now.

BigSky71 · 07-02-2008, 12:09 AM

Rare and cool, but I have to say if I didn't see this thread and I saw one of those I would think it was a Chrysler product, something about the grille just doesn't look Chevy to me... I know I am showing my lack of van knowledge but hey vans were cool before I was into trucks and cars!

lts70 · 07-02-2008, 12:13 AM

Sorry this is a little off subject but I see it used a couple times in this thread. What does "IIRC" stand for?

67_C-30 · 07-02-2008, 12:15 AM

If I Remember Correctly, IIRC!

lts70 · 07-02-2008, 12:17 AM

Thanks 67_C-30

BigSky71 · 07-02-2008, 12:22 AM

Each time I see IIRC my brain says "IROC", and then I have to correct it...

lts70 · 07-02-2008, 12:27 AM

Hopefully IRC what IIRC means in the future.
