I need another truck. Anyone got a decent one around the Winnipeg area for sale. Email me some details. Prefer it with a valid safety inspection so I can drive it right away.

Rod · 09-01-2002, 11:50 PM

Ok no bites so how about in ND or Minnesota within a few hours of the border.

toms68cst · 09-02-2002, 05:06 PM

I know of a few Rod what kind of set up are you looking for 4X4? Fleet? Beater? Nice? ect.

Rod · 09-02-2002, 11:30 PM

I need a driver, something decent. I was through Bismark in early August but just passed through. Did not get to look at much but I did talk to a guy with a Blazer at a Gas Bar. Gave him the web site info but dont know if he made it to the boards yet.

toms68cst · 09-02-2002, 11:48 PM

This 68 is sitting near Dickinson ND. I looked at it briefly. Looked pretty solid/original. He's asking $3K US. I bet he'd deal.

toms68cst · 09-02-2002, 11:50 PM

Same seller as the 68 above. I have not seen this 72 4X4. He's asking $2.5K US.

You can see his site at www.coololdtruck.com

Rod,
saw a truck in winnipeg for sale in teh CDN vintage and classic car trader.... mag's at my b/f's- post more when I get back over there!

dubie · 09-03-2002, 09:18 AM

If my 72 was all in 1 piece I would consider selling it to you Rod. But that's a wee bit of a drive to get from your area to here.

Just some info on it.

It's very dependable and I have used it as a daily driver for almost 5 years with no problems at all. It has a 250 inline 6 with 3 speed column shift. It doesn't have a safety on it, but I don't think it would require a lot, after the rocker panel and cab corners are replaced. If you might be interested, let me know.

I looked at something today... and it was something, it was a 72 Blazer chassis with a 68 GMC front clip and cab. Had a van tilt , factory 72 buckets, factory tach, 1970 diffs, and the blazer bed was made into a truck bed thats extra short becuase it fits on the frame. Vin number was 69 1/2 ton 4x4 GMC. It ran decent looked not too bad , he wanted 6 thousand Canadian, thats about $6000 canadian , thats 3900 US. I think thats too much for something made of that many different vehicles. Some kid will buy it come winter for sure. Still looking.

Sorry, wife wants an automatic.

Rod · 09-12-2002, 12:25 AM

Still looking... come on guys and gals if I dont find something that attract me soon Ill have to buy a car...

MattS · 09-12-2002, 08:52 AM

Rod - Take a look at this one. You had previously replied to me when I posted it for sale before. Under $10K(US) Unfortunately, it's a 4 speed. Cost $15K to do the frame off so I thought you might consider it worth doing a tranny swap. Located in Fargo, ND. Close enough for you to check out anyway. Contact me if you want details. Thanks.

dubie · 09-12-2002, 09:16 AM

Hey Rod

Did you check out Da-burbs Longhorn for sale on the parts board?
http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...threadid=24009

He is in Montrose Minnesota, and this truck looks and sounds solid!!!!

Rod · 09-13-2002, 03:23 AM

MattS, it out of my price range for now. Its nice looking unit.

I looked at that longhorn post, hmm.

I looked at a 68 Chev 1/2 ton today, nah, too much to make it decent.

My brother in law like Chevy Sprints. He thinks I should get one of those in the 90's.
