Re: 62 GMC LB Texas truck on Craigslist

What's the story on the "foot holes" on the side of the bed? I've seen those a couple of times...but have no idea of the purpose.

Re: 62 GMC LB Texas truck on Craigslist

Interesting. What are the extra hoses under the hood? Doesn't look like a carburetor. Is this truck natural gas powered? Custom cab option with optional steps on bed and optional bumper on front. Would be a nice truck for that price.

Do you think it could be a old hydroboost unit? maybe?

Re: 62 GMC LB Texas truck on Craigslist

Anyone could make some money parting that out...or a much better start then I had for a rebuild. Chrome front bumper, really straight body, nice steering wheel, stock rims, in bed tire carrier, chrome front grille, doors, glass...lot of great stuff I wish I had.

I wish it wasn't half-way across the country, looks like a lot of potential.

That Carb looks strange if that's what it is.

Re: 62 GMC LB Texas truck on Craigslist

I would easily pay double the asking price for it.
Here's some pics of it for when some lucky bugger buys it.
