Drivers side battery tray - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I was told this was out of a 72 GMC camper special. Except for the right rear rust hole in the tray it is solid. It looks like the aux tray in my GMC custom camper except my tray appears to be welded to the sides and this one is bolted on. Please respond in thread.
$30 + shipping

Looks good. I will take it. You could even just send the sides, if it easier for you to ship.

I'm interested if Pickmup doesn't take it.

PM me if so.

67cst,yeah fairly rare.Generally only ordered in camper-use trucks,and not always then.If I find one,I get it.By the way,is that a Confederate Hellcat in your Avatar?Nice bikes!

I restore them: weld in new trays with hidden/spot welds, sand blast and powder coat. I just did one for a bagged suburban. He wants to run all of the compressors, stereo and extra electronics on the aux battery...so the main battery can just do the engine & lights.
4X4 guys like them to run winches & extra lights.
I have sold several finished boxes to guys on this board.
You saw the "before"---this is the "after".
