Picked a 1967 GMC 4x4 with V6 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Vintage Windmills · 10-22-2012, 09:14 PM

I tore my achilles a couple weeks ago and have been told to keep weight off it but driving around the state or for a couple hours at a time is ok. Well I had to get out and go for a drive. I was cruising by a place and noticed there was alot of stuff there.... I thought I spotted a white cab roof in a small opening between some trees. I pulled in and found a 67 and its pretty rough but original with nice options (V6! super custom, buddies). love the blue/green paint color as well. Anyways I was able to flag down a kid in the yard and buy it! I think the teenager knew it wasn't the most common of trucks though since I had to pay a fair amount over scrap value. He seemed a little shady but it was his uncles truck and his uncle had a signed title for some reason and told him where it was located. Now I just need to figure out what to do with it after I get it running. I have the sister to this truck as well but yellow and its a Custom. Take a peek.

You just keep bringing home so sweet iron. I would love to have that truck! Keep saving them.
(I'll trade you my 69 GMC for it)

I can't take the credit for finding- got a "tip" on this one, waiting for you guys to figure out from whom! I agree with saving them!

**burb71** · 10-23-2012, 01:24 PM

Can you please post pic of the markings on the fire wall, looks like I see radio spelled out.

**too much stuff** · 10-23-2012, 10:10 PM

Nice find! Buddies and a tach dash. Score!

Looks like alot of markings.

Vintage Windmills · 10-25-2012, 07:30 PM

I'll try to get a pic of mine this weekend. Had surgery on the achilles yesterday and now in a cast for 2 weeks. I am grateful they got me in so quick and fixed it- feels good to be on road to proper recovery!

**Dieselwrencher** · 10-25-2012, 08:09 PM

Nice score there Jud, and I wish you a fast recovery!

sir_talk_alot · 10-25-2012, 08:28 PM

is it a 3/4 ton?

**Bob B.** · 10-26-2012, 03:22 AM

Nice, but you guys know I would like it! Hope your tendon heels up soon. Bob.

mtruckr · 10-26-2012, 01:53 PM

Those patina-green V6's are nice indeed... good luck on both recoveries !

flushdrew · 10-26-2012, 02:38 PM

super dumb new guy question...
what do the firewall markings mean? my truck has them too.
even after years of working on cars i've never even bothered to ask.

Thanks! I really like this color, its a mix of blue and green it seems. Vibrant and yet it is a classic 60's color.

One of the markings is the model number (KM1590), which indicates the cab is to be used on a V6, 4x4 lwb wideside chassis. Another one is simply "tinted w/s" and "AM radio". Basically assembly instructions.

flushdrew · 10-26-2012, 05:39 PM

thanks! that's awesome info!
