You mean the younger book smart from magazine trend following crowd. A true 4wd enthusiast will have an appreciation for any and all vintage 4wd parts or components, such as these NAPCOs with their axles with similar design.

Re: NAPCO Thread

A nice way to bump this back to the top. 55 Napco project $12000 which seems a bit steep to me but if the body is perfect it likely would be worth the price. The opinion is mine the truck is not!

https://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/...866547135.html

Up for sale is a rare 1955 Chevy NAPCO 4x4 1/2 ton shortbed pickup. Small back window. 4 speed manual transmission and Spicer model 23 divorced transfer case. Warn front locking hubs. No engine, radiator or tailgate. Comes with a clutch, flywheel, new front brake shoes, and new front wheel cylinders. Previous owner welded in new inner and outer cab corners, and looks like a quick paintjob (looks pretty good from 20 feet). I installed new tail lights and brackets, seat cover, new wood in the bed, gas cap and filler hoses, painted the bumpers and headlight bezels and cleaned it up. Cool truck to restore back to its glory days or throw in a small block and have a weekend warrior. Classic plate and title in hand. This is a pretty rare truck and fully restored could bring $60k or more. Serious inquiries only please. My cell coverage is pretty bad, so if I don't answer, leave a message and I will call you back asap. No texts, call and we can talk. Call Brent @ 4 2 5 6 9 8 5 O 2 9. Thank you.

Re: NAPCO Thread

Question for all you napco guys. My friend is offering me a 57 napco. It runs and drives. The only rust I can find is in the right side wheel wells and it's not that bad. It has a different dash and the radio hole has been enlarged a little. It looks like a may have blow by but l'm hoping that will clear out when it gets driven more. He's asking 8000 for it with some extra parts. Is that a fair price? I don't want to let it slip away. I need some options. I tried to upload pics but I'm not to bright with this stuff. Thanks

Welcome aboard. Good to see a member from my old hometown. It is hard to guess value without photos especially with some sort of dash conversion. But looking at the trucks in this thread it doesn't sound out of line price wise. It's just not a deal.
If you do a search for how to post photos you will find step by step instructions. Better than the ones I would be able to give.

Re: NAPCO Thread

That’s the first time I’ve seen someone try to make a task force cab five window (really four since the front glass is one piece); otherwise, that’s a nice one

Those cabs were used on bigger trucks, semi's. They are factory not custom or homemade but never seen one on a 1 ton Blue Chip truck before, based on the ad description and pictures he's pieced it together from multiple donor trucks. GMC hood, Chevy grille, etc. Task Force were Chevy's.

I've seen 1/2t trucks with that window deal. I can't recall if it was factory or a conversion. Not homemade for sure. I talked to one very knowledgeable owner/fellow member when we were in the National Chevy/GMC Truck Assoc back in the '80s

On cab window count you don't count the windshield. It's door windows back, such as 3 window coupe having door windows and back window. 5 window coupe had quarter glass.

It’s actually factory - I have seen 1 or 2 others. Forget the story about them though!

Re: NAPCO Thread

most ere eaton axles . they used a lot of off the shelf parts and i have heard / read the front center diff is the same as the back end . just olted in the custom made front housing .

try looking in the heavy hauler section here there is a decent amount of 4x4 big trucks in there .

when your typing a post scroll down and use the manage attachments button and then load files from there .
