Re: '60 GMC 4x4 Long Fenderside
Argonaut,
What started this was seeing KroAutomotiveInc's new 1960 GMC. His is on the left like most of the other ones I have seen. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=532295 |

Re: '60 GMC 4x4 Long Fenderside
Kro, if you tell me yours has a low VIN, then I am going to start getting suspicious! LOL
Mine was #46 built. K1002PN1047A According to Jolly's site, they started at 1001. We are going to have to get these sisters together at some point in the future! |

Re: '60 GMC 4x4 Long Fenderside
That's cool Cort!
I searched around on here, and no-one talked about a Cape Blue anything, from what I could find. |

Re: '60 GMC 4x4 Long Fenderside
Yours would be #539 according to the 60-66 GMC site. http://www.6066gmcguy.org/GMC-vin-list-60.html
Your shifter is on the same side as everyone else's. Mine is the oddball. |

Re: '60 GMC 4x4 Long Fenderside
I have caught glimpses of a few '64-'66 4x4's around here, but no '60-'63's. Always have my eyes open for them, just never in a spot I can catch them to talk, or get a good look at them! LOL

Re: '60 GMC 4x4 Long Fenderside
I found some pictures of the truck that my friend took when he got the truck, and scanned them in. Rough guess they were taken 13 years or so ago. Check out the nice carpet in there!!

Re: '60 GMC 4x4 Long Fenderside
Now comes the fun of finding the mounts for it. If you have any problems...hit up Markeb...hes the resident expert in my opinion. Helped me through my install.

Re: '60 GMC 4x4 Long Fenderside
This is what the mounts will look like. I believe that Bob at Accessoryland can help with them if you dont have them.

Re: '60 GMC 4x4 Long Fenderside
As far as I know the handle to the right of the glove box is not original. Seems like a good place for one though! LOL It was not in there when I got the truck, so my buddy must have taken it out.
The only spotlights I have seen were mounted either low like mine, or straight out the top if the roof. Unity is still up and running. http://www.unityusa.com/ I am still planning on the flatbed at this point. I cannot fit the truck in my garage if I had the full bed on it. Someone at some point chopped the back of my frame off right after the rear spring hangers. I found some cool pictures of '60-'66 4x4's with flatbeds going through the 4x4 threads. I am still at work now, or I would post a few of my favorites. I'll be here for a couple more hours at least, then I get to do it again at 4am. Lots and lots of |
