62 GMC 3 door - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

1967k30 · 04-21-2011, 02:30 PM

I recently found a 62 GMC 3 door and the owner claims it's 1 of 3 and that the other 2 were destroyed. I was curious if anyone knew anything about these? I'd like to buy it but need some background info.
Thanks

jonathan-m · 04-21-2011, 02:34 PM

Any pictures?

NWGreaser · 04-21-2011, 02:47 PM

I am curious to see it also....

jonzcustomshop · 04-21-2011, 03:19 PM

crewcab?
or a sub?

there are still some of both around...not the only one left, but yes very rare...

photos:
dinos crew is a 3 door.
this yosemite park bus could be considered a 3 door, although it is actually a 5-just has 3 extra doors.

and this ambulance is an example of some of the converted panel 3 doors..

I saw pictures of a 3 door built by custom coach builders. The philosofy was such that it impeeded passengers to exit into traffic. I believe International ran with the idea to start in regular production then GM jumped in later in production models with a four door for convienience.

I have heard that the 3-doors that were used by the railroad were purchased for that reason as well.

Here's a couple pic's. Whats it worth? It's a 4x4 with a V6 and a 4spd.

**Clyde65** · 04-22-2011, 10:57 AM

Worth is a relative term.

There are some people that have restored them and sunk lots of $ into them and when time to sell want $70K plus.

I would try to get it for under $1k, but dont be surprised if the guy is knowledgeable of what he has, that it climbs into the $2-4K area.

preacherman5555 paid $900 for his.
I missed a nice one on ebay for $2200
there is one forsale in colorado for $3500, but a member had talked him down to 2500, then decided it was too rough to deal with.
there is another for sale in colorado that has been $6000 for years now... also a very rough one for that money...

there have also been a few on ebay over the last couple of years in the $4500 range.

Imo $4500 would not be out of line for that, however if you want to move it right away, probably in the $1500 to $2500 range...
you also might get lucky on ebay and be the actual victor of a bidding war!

1967k30 · 04-22-2011, 02:00 PM

The guy wants $4500 for it and I really don't need it but it's a cool truck.

:

Please tell me this isnt what really happened!?!....to have the nerve to waste someones time talking them down and then not going through paying what you negotiated to...all I can say is WOW!

jonzcustomshop · 04-23-2011, 07:54 AM

he asked what the price would be without the big block, and some extra parts... then the owner sent him the pics of the roof, had a tree fall on it I think, and the passenger rear door was wiped out....the damage wasn't visible or mentioned in the inital ad.

1967k30 · 04-24-2011, 10:25 AM

I guess if someone wants it I can get the contact info. I prolly shouldn't buy it right now.

dj-66 · 04-24-2011, 10:42 PM

Does anyone have the info on the 3500 crew cab that is in colorado and also what is the contact info on the gmc crew cab? Thanks for any info.
