1967 C30 Napco 4x4 questions

[special-K]

Way to go! I'm happy for you

Let me be the first to say, "If and when you should decide to sell this truck, I would appreciate it if you would please offer it to me first". I know, damn claim jumpers. Just had to make that official. I already know the reply, "Not sure you'll live that long, K"

the kid an i tried planing out the trip out there when this truck was first posted. neither of us are that adventureous to do it.

i saved the pick and used it as my background for a few months.

i wander how many of these napcos were built in 67....in other words there "could be a chance to find one closer to home"

that is one serious truck i'm glad the new owner is a member here to share it with us.

it seems in the past few years as these trucks have exploded in popularity the napcos are really being found and scooped up just glad they are being saved.

pretty sure i saw a early one on cl a few months ago with a swivel frame i think in az.

there is still a 58-9 in a shed just behind my house that hasnt been out in about 3 years.

I tried yesterday as well to buy this trick...This guy was a super jerk..You must have called at a better time..I asked several questions he did not have answers for..He insisted several times that he would not do anything for free and that he was so geographic challenged that he did not know where Minneapolis,MN was..Good luck with the truck...

I will say our conversation started off rough but he has turned out super nice , Sent any pic I ask for and cut me a heck of a deal. I think everyone is sick of jerks and scams on cl that they are on edge. I'm getting the same way, you have to put up with 5 jerks to get 1 serious person.

you are 100% correct.
but i'm gonna its more like 9 to 1 with the scammers involved.

Ok.This deal does not make any sense..When I called him yesterday,all we talked about was how to get him paid..Never asked for a lower price,How do I get you $2500..He does not do paypal,cannot do credit card over the phone,not willing to do wire transfer,refused postal money order or personal check..Cash in hand and not from a transport driver.....If he sold it for less,he is an Idiot...

[doo142]

I am sad to say it did not work out. We had a gentlemens agreement and I asked him for his "word " since it would be a day , even offered to pay in full sight unseen. He reassured me it was a deal, I had his word... Talked again this morning , seemed like a stand up guy, deal was done. Get a call at 5 and he was selling it to someone who called. I am sick!!

[doo142]

Thanks guys!! I had it bought a half hour after finding it!! She needs a home. I'll keep you posted. Not only 516 gear but a no slip too. It'll be my new daily!! LOL

[d21smith]

Anyone care to expound upon that?

[doo142]

It hard because I had big plans to chop it, bag it with a big C notch, go to 1/2 ton five lug, chop the frame to swb length with fake patina. Would have been cool!!! Lol ,this will give us something fun to talk about. Peace !!!

[7oldno]

OMG, grumpy old man said he was out because the op had thought about putting a longhorn bed on the truck. DOO if you were gonna CHOP, CUT, C-NOTCH, BAG, this truck then i am happy as hell you didn't get it. I like a lower stance on our trucks but to ruin a NAPCO by doing this makes me sick to my stomach!!!

To each their own i guess.

[d21smith]

7oldno it definitely won't be bagged c notched lowered I promise that just can't decide on a bed it will remain a bad ass truck not a lowered c10.

[doo142]

That was for fun, sorry thought it was obvious!!

[7oldno]

d21smith i went to check out that truck this morning to take some pics, but unfortunately it isn't a longhorn like i had thought. It is a custom camper big block truck. I will send him a message and ask if he knows of any longhorn beds. He has a lot of stuff and would be the one to know of a longhorn. I would like to check it out but will wait a couple months for the weather
I will throw you my number just to have 217-331-8301{Mike}

Not sure but my guess is that he may have been joking about cutting it up- just a crazy hunch
