I am thinking about buying this truck - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Chevy Fleetside** · 06-16-2008, 07:33 PM

I will probably use it to put the body on my 79 K10 frame. Acually my 79 4x4. This way I would not have to smog it and I could try and make it get pretty good milage with one of those TBI eingines. Or just leave it as a 2wd and put a tbi engine in the truck. It is a 64 C20 with a V8 and 4 speed tranny. It has been used as a farm truck and has not been reg for the past 20 years. The radiator is missing (Ihave an extra) and he says it runs.. Oh yeah I almost forgot to mention that he is asking $350...

scotts62 · 06-16-2008, 08:02 PM

$350......?

and you haven't bought it yet? It looks like it would be a good project!

truckdrivinsob · 06-16-2008, 08:50 PM

Why don't you give me his number I'll go head and set the deal up for you!!!!

62 short step · 06-16-2008, 09:39 PM

Good deal!

72BlckButy · 06-16-2008, 11:15 PM

I hope you're picking this thing up as I type.... $350 is a steal!!!

**ChiefRocka** · 06-16-2008, 11:36 PM

That is a good deal.....BTW, I have a driver-side bed-side if you need one...

kdrodworks316 · 06-16-2008, 11:46 PM

Can I have the front fenders? please

283 Man · 06-17-2008, 06:35 AM

good deal...

spankycffc · 06-17-2008, 07:00 AM

wow you can buy it part it out and double your money

gulfcoast66 · 06-17-2008, 07:02 AM

Buy it and keep it or part it out to the board members, my 2 $ Chris.

**Chevy Fleetside** · 06-17-2008, 09:56 AM

I was going to register it and use it as a work truck. Fix it along the way also..

jchav62 · 06-17-2008, 09:58 AM

Thats a steal! That would make one helluva work truck...

gulfcoast66 · 06-17-2008, 11:38 AM

**Chevy Fleetside** · 06-17-2008, 12:21 PM

There is no vin# plate. The original owner removed it and stamped the cab metal for some reason. I am going to take a look at it. The vin#'s are still stamped on the frame..

Fred T · 06-17-2008, 01:11 PM

The missing vin plate will be a problem. Contact your state DMV and get the facts before you buy the truck.

scotts62 · 06-17-2008, 04:49 PM

could have been stolen long time ago and used on a farm so it would not be found... anything is possible when VIN's are removed

**Chevy Fleetside** · 06-18-2008, 12:34 AM

Thats ok.. I am going to pass on it. I would have to rent a trailer and drive my 79 over 100 miles to get it then over to my storage and back home. by then I would spend over $100 on gas alone. Then all the inspections and dealing with DMV and maybe having to take it to CHP to get a new vin plate if it is not stolen, which I dought. The truck spent it's farm life in Nevada city.. So if anyone else might be interested here is the link... http://sacramento.craigslist.org/car/721957596.html

scotts62 · 06-18-2008, 07:39 AM

It would be a great parting out truck! looks like lots of good parts, if i was closer id be having some cheap parts coming up for sale

Iron-Butt · 06-18-2008, 09:00 AM

Thats a good buy.

Fraser Beatty · 06-18-2008, 04:25 PM

Darn it wish I was closer! At $350 it would be gone in minutes over here in Ontario!

Nevada City huh ?? Next time I go up there, I'll check it out (if it's still available). Wifes grandma lives down there.

I don't want it, just want to see whats up with the vin plate.

**Chevy Fleetside** · 06-18-2008, 08:50 PM

The truck is in Grass Valley. It spent it's days on a farm in Nevada City..
