Ask me that question again next week. 20 inches of snow in the foothills outside Denver is hampering Barn access. Hope to have a transport there Monday or Tuesday. Good thing spring snow melts fast, bad thing is spring snow generally becomes spring mud. Might get to test the 4 wheel drive.

Cheers!

Good looking truck & good looking kid! Looks like your son grew up with the truck. So... don't you think when it is done it should be his daily driver?

**HO455** · 06-17-2017, 07:40 PM

One of the best 57 GMC! $2400. Claims to be NAPCO but not much left of those parts. None the less if the demon rust hasn't taken over this is a good price.

B. W. · 01-29-2018, 11:03 AM

Funny how he doesn't show the front axle or the T-case!!

Yewhi · 01-29-2018, 11:57 AM

Yeah this has been for sale for a while. Earlier versions (months back) showed a bit more. It wasn't pretty.

**57NAPCO** · 02-06-2018, 09:00 AM

I could be wrong but I thought in 1960 Chevy started supplying all 4X4’s with factory equipped four wheel drive, no more NAPCO products.

b454rat · 02-06-2018, 06:59 PM

yup. Only 1 tons were NAPCO. That one wouldn't matter anyways since he swapped the axle out. But not a bad price tho....

Hblee · 02-08-2018, 08:10 PM

I haven't checked this thread in a while, it's good to see some new pictures. That green 57 is frickin' gorgeous, it gives me hope. I haven't got a lot done to mine recently. I'm hoping to change that soon. I've been busy on another car and trying to get it to auction this spring. I do have the transfer case and SM420 freshened up, pretty and ready to go. The front axle was all busted up. I ended up with 3 broke trunnions and had a friend repair those. It's all been rebuilt and back together. I have the engine work done, just need to assemble it.

**57NAPCO** · 02-14-2018, 08:06 AM
