"Check out this steaming heap of crap" kind of lacks "sizzle".

cableguy0 · 10-28-2003, 10:34 PM

:p yea cpne you got a point there but that has to be one of the worst trucks i have ever seen that the paint color is still recognizable

imdarren · 10-28-2003, 10:35 PM

I'm really into the 72 3/4 ton 4x4's!
So I was gunna download the photo for wallpaper for the computer.
Not that photo though! LOL!

Looks like the running gear may be good?
And the hood too!?

Darren

dinnut · 10-28-2003, 10:51 PM

reverse tilt hood!

Denny · 10-28-2003, 11:03 PM

Yikes! May it rest in Chevy Heaven

gmc71 · 10-28-2003, 11:21 PM

It looks like many of those I've found here in NY..... I bet a little duct tape could get it up and running again.

casey · 10-28-2003, 11:37 PM

thats a challenge for efabman

lukecp · 10-29-2003, 12:08 AM

The hood still looks good !

**Canadian694x4** · 10-29-2003, 12:18 AM

it looks worse than most I've seen but I'm sure it can still serve as parts for sum project...

krazy_texan · 10-29-2003, 12:38 AM

yeah it would make a great project, all you need is a new cab, new frame, new bed, and new front clip and it will be rolling again.

*dtlilly* · 10-29-2003, 01:08 AM

At least save those blue lock-outs!!

Hooter · 10-29-2003, 02:06 AM

it has sure been sweetened by thirty years of rot, bust out the ole mig welder, we could have that thing back on the road in no time, I always enjoyed a challenge anyways

Hooter · 10-29-2003, 02:08 AM

hey wait, those are some sweet spicer hubs, and btw who went bananas with the sawz all on that thing anyways?!

JayDubBlazer · 10-29-2003, 05:58 AM

Hooter you beat me to it I was just going to comment on the bright hubs. Bright compared to the rest of the truck.

**CPNE** · 10-29-2003, 08:02 AM

The engine was pulled but not gracefully. They torched the front bumper brackets and Fisher plow frame off

. The fenders were junk and yes it looks like a sawz-all was used.

It was an auto truck with cab clearance lights, PS, PDB, and a radio for options. That is the original paint, looks like NH Park Service green. Other than engine the tranny and xfer case and running gear is there. 4:11, non-posi.

I've asked about the hubs and it does have the xfer shift knob which I want to grab. I'd like the driveshafts too. I may inquire about the whole thing but its a race because the junk man has been called to haul it away and I can't do anything until Saturday.

I'd like it for spare parts for my 72 plow truck, plus it'll be very little money to get them. Time is not on my side though.
