Yes, and a beautiful example as well! Hauling heavy and looking good doing it (although truck seems to be empty)

C10 - C90 Bill · 10-08-2017, 02:52 AM

Beautiful example of a Heavy Medium.

I just wish they put 6V-53's in those trucks back then.

Or maybe even 4-71's ??

**special-K** · 10-08-2017, 05:01 AM

Yeah, a 4-71 would fit. It would be neat to stretch one to fit a 6-71...or 12V!!

KQQL IT · 10-14-2017, 03:24 PM

Neat tow truck

C10 - C90 Bill · 10-14-2017, 04:05 PM

Nice '62 Wrecker.

Nice Heavy Front Axle too.

GW says 11,000. That has to be for just the truck itself.

Could have a GVW of about 25,00 to 30,000.

**Bob B.** · 10-15-2017, 01:06 AM

Saw this the other day, glad someone decided to make one:

From what I understand, there will be many versions besides this one with a custom pickup bed.

**special-K** · 10-15-2017, 07:26 AM

Nice one! Custom Cab and it has the accessory grille guard with stock bumper.

11k, hmmm...the minimum weight for that class. Maybe just registered low as it could for cheap back when you could get away with a thing or two. Maybe that state considered a hoisted vehicle as combined weight. That is very light.

Hopefully. I got over the "Hey look, I made an oversized useless pickup" thing

. They are cool, but something useful is cooler and now it's just monkey see/monkey do more of the same.

C10 - C90 Bill · 11-01-2017, 09:56 PM

Now that's a cool truck.

NoStopN · 11-01-2017, 10:00 PM

That is a nice one.

**special-K** · 11-02-2017, 08:33 AM

Isn't it? I meant to put it in GM Semis but oh well

**special-K** · 11-10-2017, 08:40 AM

Olay!!

cam.man67 · 11-25-2017, 08:43 AM

Drove this the other day, '75 C60 with a 366, 5-speed and 2-speed rear (stuck in low). I had a blast hauling about 300 bushels of corn into the Co-Op!

**special-K** · 11-25-2017, 10:24 PM

There ya go, pinstripes and all!

**Bob B.** · 12-09-2017, 03:39 AM

I used to see a lot of tandem axle Chevy dump trucks in both the '67-'72 and '73-'87 body styles. Usually a 8-10 yd. bed, 427, 5X4 transmission. Must have been a common spec..

**special-K** · 12-14-2017, 07:26 AM

Cowl & chassis using other cab

That is what the old GMC looked like that we had years ago. It was a 350 4sp with a 2sp rear. I pulled a 40 foot cattle trailer with it almost every weekend when I was 13 yrs old.

**special-K** · 12-31-2017, 08:32 AM

I could see that being a perfect use for a tractor like that. I could use one like that now and have a variety of 5th wheel trailers

Triplel40 · 01-13-2018, 01:17 AM

Got this '68 C60 a while back. 366/5+2 with a 16x8 dumping flatbed with grain box sides. Old farmer gave it to me for free because it "wasn't running right". Has 6 new tires and a new Edelbrock 650 on it so can't complain. Found it had 4 dead holes, engine tear down revealed a worn out timing chain and 7 valves bent from hitting pistons. Luckily no other damage. Threw in a new set of valves, 3 push rods, a timing set, and a new oil pump, now it's running great! Tear-down also revealed the engine is bored 030 over. Most of the body is really solid, small amount of rust around step/fender and dented passenger fender. I honestly don't know what I'm going to do with it. Hauled a little bit around the farm and for my neighbors construction company. Will probably eventually either sell it or build some kind of car hauler out of it for my race truck.

**special-K** · 01-13-2018, 07:55 AM

Can't beat that! That motor must have never been revved real hard for a chain bad enough for pistons and valves to meet but not jump. I'd imagine you could sell that grain body/hoist rig when the time comes.
