Checking in from New England (67 GMC 4x4 help)

[msgross]

It will also have a rockwell transfer case which works but is stated to be noisy and difficult to find parts for. NP205 is a popular swap for guys...

I know where there is a 292-4speed-NP205 combo in the junkyard but it wouldn't be easy to get out and something might be broken in it...

Hopefully Brady isn't using his downtime to impregnate any more ladies...

HAHA, now that's funny!!!

Well, now I’m not sure what I have. First and most importantly, it’s definitely the 292…YES. But, I’m not sure if this truck was a GMC or a Chevy now because the engine, tranny and transfer case are all original orange paint. I read somewhere (I think on this site) that the GMC engines were usually blue. Also, I could NOT find a VIN plate anywhere on this frame, and I checked everywhere like 5 times. So now I’m not even sure if the guy I bought this chassis from was correct telling me it’s a 1967 GMC.

I do have pics but can’t upload until tomorrow but I do have all the numbers off the engine, intake, tranny and transfer case:

Engine (these numbers are on passenger side of block): C0N 2 E51 3994258
Intake: 3923418 GM 28
Top of Tranny: 3901131 D88 GM2
Side of Tranny: 3901127 D288 GM2
Transfer Case: Rockwell Standard Corp.
Model: T-221 N3
Ratio: 1.94
Serial No: 12 67-0 34

So, what do you guys think? Did I make a score or is this stuff not that good?

Wow, I missed this the first time around. I'm a New Englander and a PATS fan as well. Lets see some picts of the truck.

Giants lost today - I'm happy about that!

The VIN on my frame is on the top side of the frame just inside the driver front tire... really light stamping..

There's no specific plate just etched directly on the frame itself?

[msgross]

nope... just some numbers stamped into the steel... very light too..

there are other numbers on parts of the frames but they aren't the VIN..

You Sir, just made my day!

The only thing that sucks now is that I won't be able to look again until the 24th. Damn! The chassis is at my parents house in MA...LOL!
