Wintertime project
I just got a 67 gmc 1 1/2 ton dually It has a 350 V6 4spd with an aux. trans with low and high range. It has 86,000 miles on it and it does run. I see a rollback to cruise to the shows and swapmeets in. Or to haul my 70 2wd blazer to a cruise in then run it. What do you think? Its even a calif. truck. cab is very solid too.

Sweet!
I want top point out, that is just a one ton...anything bigger was a different body style. The engine will either be a 305 or a 351. How does the option sheet read? That looks like a 157 inch wheel base....lots of room for a roll back, or you could make it a ramp style car carrier. |

Oh yeah, you may want to look at the problems trying to register a tow truck of any sort...it can be a real PITA and hard to insure too.
