AL Need 60-62 frame horns - HELP!! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**JQ-72** · 01-01-2013, 10:56 PM

I've started doing some work on my 1960 GMC and hope to have it on the road pretty soon. If someone has a donor frame to sacrifice, I'm needing both front frame "horns". If someone can help me out, I'd like to have them cut just in front of the radiator support mounts, to give me plenty of room to work with. Thanks!
Joshua

Hey Travis,
The 60-62 Frames are different than the 63-66.
The horns are also different.

travz500 · 01-02-2013, 12:54 AM

well darn guess I wont be any help to you. How are they different LOSTMY65 just curious never paid much attention

LostMy65 · 01-02-2013, 01:06 AM

The width location of the bumper mounting holes is the same, but the vertical measurement is taller for both the mounting holes, and the frame.

Thanks anyway, Travz. It does have to be a torsion bar frame from 1960-1962. Anyone else??

dont get worried yet my mother in law has a 62 I will see what I can get done she may sell it to me to part out not sure its not a complete anyhow missing most of front clip

**paulspickupparts** · 01-02-2013, 05:36 PM

Travs500 may have you covered . I should have a set if it gets to me . I would have to check condition also but have three 60-62 trucks. Thanks

travz500 · 01-02-2013, 07:05 PM

ok better let paul fix you up talked her into parting with parts but the frame is even rusted in two up there some how but if you need other parts let me know thanks

**JQ-72** · 01-02-2013, 07:12 PM

You are up, Paul!!

**paulspickupparts** · 01-02-2013, 07:27 PM

I will grab the snow shovel. How far back do you want them cut. Probably should throw a price so we are on the same page . $40 plus shipping . If less than 12 inches long should be able to get into a medium flat rate for $10.50.Thanks Paul

**paulspickupparts** · 01-03-2013, 10:55 PM

Here are some pics of the frame horns I removed today. They are in good shape but do have two smal cracks by the tight bend. Would be an easy fix with wire feed. These came off two different trucks in order to get a good pair . Kind off odd they were cracked in the same spot.

**JQ-72** · 01-03-2013, 11:07 PM

So is it still around $50 shipped? PM your info and I'll get you some $$$. Thanks.
Joshua

**paulspickupparts** · 01-03-2013, 11:09 PM

If thats ok with you . The cracks are really minor . Will send PM with info.

**paulspickupparts** · 01-03-2013, 11:23 PM

Joshua, I just wrapped them up and was able to get them in a padded emvelope. You can make the total $46 instead of $50 . Thanks Paul

**paulspickupparts** · 01-08-2013, 06:06 PM

Joshua, just to let you know the frame horns were sent today via USPS Priority Mail . PM has tracking # . Thanks again, Paul

**JQ-72** · 01-14-2013, 05:31 PM

Paul, I got the parts over the weekend. Thanks for your help!!
Joshua

**paulspickupparts** · 01-14-2013, 08:07 PM

Thangs again, good luck with your truck. Paul
