Re: most original 60-66 truck in existence?

This one would qualify without the drop kit, wheel change and auto trans lever on floor conversion. I don't mind the auto conversion, but do it right with a factory column! https://www.ebay.com/itm/1965-Chevro....c100667.m2042 Leave an original alone, IMO, cheesy wheels and a drop, don't increase the value of an already rare hard to find original 3/4 ton.

Sorry, I know this will tick someone off, but seeing that original C20 lowered just makes me want to cry (and I don't mean tears of joy). That thing was very, very original beforehand.

The trailer, and the sellers business, tells me he is a flipper. Personalizing a vehicle to your own taste is obviously your right, but bragging about how original it is when its time to flip after questionable modifications were made is a major turn off.

Why,why,why??? Somebody needs to buy this and save it's C 20 soul. Put the suspension back where it's supposed to be on a C 20, get rid of the wannabe racer floor shift. I do like those wheels on these trucks,maybe painted black or a darker color.

Re: most original 60-66 truck in existence?

I wouldn’t call those rims cheesy, they look like splits. I would call mags or wagon wheel spokes cheesy. Yes fix the suspension, get rid of that silly automatic and it could be a nice truck. I have been looking for an original early GMC for close to 50 years. I found one once but couldn’t afford it. I have had a couple that were very used, abused, and rusty, and I was able to fix, but as stated before restored and original are two different things. So to those who have an original truck consider yourself very fortunate. I also think it’s criminal when a kid decides to modify one. But as an admirer of stock original vechicles thats my opinion.
