How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks - Page 23 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

i know what you mean. i was sick of it just mocking it up.. mine can damn near lay frame. you can't get at all the lugs w/out lifting the chassis... and, there was never gunna be a box floor. just to much stuff to go around with the cage and lifting the frame rails up 8" my only real regret is i should've pinched the frame. i left it stock width. you put 345x55x15 on a 12" wheel everything gets real tight.

I love that idea with the wheel barrel. $14.00 well spent.

Thanks Norm. I'll be at Farmer Boys this Thursday for Cruise Night. On Bear Valley across the street from Loews. They have good food there also. Hope you can make it. We also have a Bike Night in Apple Valley on Tuesday nights.

darkhorse, what a nice looking ride. These beautiful trucks are making me a real big fan of these year trucks. I may have to get one some day.

NewTown_66 · 07-16-2009, 02:42 PM

I just started working on this truck. It's my first restore and first classic truck. "Able" is a 1966 C80 that was originally a fire truck tanker.

I purchased this in June '09 and after having it home for just 3 days, the parking brake blew apart and took out an oncoming car's radiator. It hasn't driven since then as I need to find a new brake to pass inspection, but here are some photos of it at its previous home.

If anyone knows of, or has a parking brake assembly for a Spicer 3152F, please let me know!

Strodder · 07-16-2009, 02:49 PM

That's a really nice big a*s truck. Now get it off my lawn.

**aerotruk63** · 07-11-2009, 05:49 PM

The 63's really nice! It's interesting to see it in monochrome white!
