Just asked my dad about all these options. He confirmed it as well, high humps in all 4X4 and 2wd 4spd trucks. All the rest of the 2wd were low hump. All 2wd were indeed coil, despite trim level. He said you couldnt even order a 2wd with leaf rear out of the catalog (that was Dec 70 when he was ordering whats now my 71 GMC 4X4).

I'm amazed at how well he can remember all these things. Glad you guys know your stuff too or us youngsters would have to listen to the internets more than we already do.

Old gearheads can remember everything about their rides... down to the last nut. But we cant remember our wives birthdays or what we had for dinner last night. Its a savvant kind of thing.

Amen to that!

Pretty sure that only 4 speeds in 2wd needed the high hump Tony. Only the high humps can be unbolted.

npbra · 01-06-2013, 03:17 AM

1972 Jimmy original 4x2 with automatic, no hump and coils all around.

tubbedII · 01-07-2013, 01:33 PM

1970 2wd with a high hump here...it has a column shift and only 1 pedal (meaning automatic) but the spid was gone so no telling if it was like that from the factory. However, the firewall had the original chalk markings and there was no sign of a clutch linkage previously being there so my guess is that it was an automatic off the assembly line.

Here's one decent clean rolling frame for some Lucky B.C person !!! (TNAMRINE)
I would scoop this in a heartbeat if it was at least 600 miles closer!

tnamarine · 02-25-2013, 02:59 PM

That frame is in good shape. The owner is delivering me a top this weekend in trade for a bunch of parts I have kicking around. Someone should snag this before i decide to build a twin to mine lol

zammer · 02-25-2013, 03:15 PM

Do you think i could get that thing shipped to me to Edmonton at a decent $$? I would seriously consider for a future project... IF you could help me move it there may be some beer $$ in it for you..

tnamarine · 02-25-2013, 03:24 PM

Toss it on Uship and see what kinda bid's you get. I usually have boats pulled out of edmonton for about $650

Not a fan of the windows on the top - it sort of fits in the "powered by honda" stickers on the honda cars IMO.
