Love it!
Glad to see you finally have it

I like it

pros;
period correct
matches chrome
factory dealer accessory doesn't affect spid accuracy

cons;
from a practical aspect, doesn't offer any real protection, mostly for looks

not my style personally, I would prefer the flat bar steel grill guard but those are painted white and look better on painted bumper

if I had one in that good condition, I would be inclined to install it on a truck to represent the history rather than leave it in a box

it does look good on dark blue

but it really only matters what Chevyland likes

Dually looks landscape ready for work

Does Gus like four eyed trucks?

**IronCanine** · 12-08-2024, 12:34 PM

Eric...am I reading that pic correctly...the mat is above the shift boot ring on the 1T? As Fremont was known to do.

Love that interior. 70 red GMC Z62. Not a lot of those out there.

Killer Bee · 12-08-2024, 04:07 PM

well I'll be dipped - never really paid much attention to it and didn't know it was a factory thing for the mat to cover the the shifter boot ring

71 Fremont Longhorn

I don't know to what extent this occurred. JoesJunk first alerted me to it. But anecdotally...I have seen a few original examples (carpet and mat) from Fremont that had the mat above the ring. Eric's truck looks in the pic to be the same. These could be exceptions or they could be the rule...I don't know.

**Chevyland** · 12-08-2024, 07:30 PM

I was wondering about the mat
My other 4spd c30 was a Fremont truck
The original floor mat in it was installed with ring over the mat

I bought the truck because of the red interior
Plus it was black like the first c30 I ever owned
The utility box is functional (but not so cool looking) ?
My intention was to find a flatbed for it
Which I did recently
Probably just going to do the swap and drive it as it is
70k original miles

Curious what the wheel base is on the red flat bed?

Killer Bee · 12-08-2024, 08:57 PM

I'll take one of each please

don't see as many serviceable old utility bodies as flatbeds but they both look great and serve a purpose

sure you'll make a good choice that will look great, good luck!

57taskforce · 12-08-2024, 10:21 PM

Man I like that black service truck just the way it is! I’m biased after working out of multiple service trucks for several years. Very very cool stuff. Love that suburban as well! Do you still have the Medium Green super K20?

**Joesjunk** · 12-08-2024, 10:59 PM

Great looking GMC dually. I actually think it looks pretty good with the utility bed. But I also like the flatbed idea too.

**Chevyland** · 12-09-2024, 08:52 AM

Joe,
Your old flatbed is the first one in my 'flatbed' photo album
For inspiration

The truck definitely could go into the fleet,
but all the work trucks have been updated
About 6 months ago I sold the last 69 dump truck
All the old trucks that are left, are toys

Gus likes anything new around the house

Yes, the teal truck is still around
Tucked away for the winter on the east coast

All the trucks in that picture are 133 WB
The red truck looks shorter because it's bed was so short
