Very Happy About New Parts Truck! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I bought a parts truck today that I am very excited about. Here is a picture:

breeh · 01-09-2009, 02:16 AM

Oh, I forgot the exciting part. What you can't see is the factory power-lok rear and the big-block. See what you can see! SPID didn't turn out in the dark picture taking.

Previous owner is a board member and a great guy with one of the nicest SWB 4x4's that I have seen yet. Maybe someday he will post some pics of it (after the record snowfall, flooding, landslides, etc., etc...

OARNGESI · 01-09-2009, 02:33 AM

Looks good lots of parts

**68350** · 01-09-2009, 03:43 AM

I would say that is definitely a loaded truck. I see tilt, air, cheyenne super eq., bucket seats, maybe am/fm, and who knows what else. very nice parts truck!

Good eye! Yes, AM/FM. Also, what you can't see is the tach dash so I will give that to you!

HOTFUN · 01-09-2009, 05:55 AM

Wow that would be one awesome parts truck or even better a body swap to a 4x4 frame and restore. I love that color and those buckets.
Great score.

my67chevytruck · 01-09-2009, 10:04 AM

Score!!!!

Great score.

We think alike

flynbrian · 01-09-2009, 01:43 PM

Very nice! Was the price tag reasonable?

breeh · 01-09-2009, 01:47 PM

It was a fair price. Definitely less money and hastle than trying to piece all of those options together seperately.

trx450duner · 01-09-2009, 02:55 PM

very nice score

thirdstreettito · 01-09-2009, 05:00 PM

Nice score!

powell72 · 01-09-2009, 05:08 PM

Wow, that's a great parts truck!

sleepertruck72 · 01-09-2009, 08:27 PM

So you mean youre gonna add a few parts and drive it, or use the parts that are there ? That one looks too roadworthy to part out IMO. I like the white/yellow. When I bought my 72 C-20. It was the exact same color. Not quite as loaded. Good luck with that one !!!

Mister laugh · 01-09-2009, 08:37 PM

Funny i am looking at almost the exact same truck for a parts truck right now, except its a GMC has a bed and no big block.

67ChevyRedneck · 01-09-2009, 08:43 PM

That looks like a shortened frame and short fleet bed candidate to me

I am going to add a few parts and drive it. The 2 major parts that I am going to add are the 1) a bed, and 2) 3/4 4x4 chassis.

**jerry moss** · 01-09-2009, 09:37 PM

that is one well optioned truck. that cab and clip will look great on a 4x4 chassis--sounds like a joesjunk project in the making. congrats on a great score.

Good to hear it's not being "parted out."

HOTFUN · 01-09-2009, 11:36 PM

That's a Fremont, CA built truck so you are going to have to find it's build sheet. I wonder if they stuffed it in the bucket seat back or bottom like the regular seats or maybe under the carpet over the tank or floor? Please let me know where you find it and pictures if possible of the 'BUILD OUT" and it's location with the bucket seats. That is soooooo coool.

**thelonerife** · 01-10-2009, 01:01 AM

That is nice of him to sell it to you. Considering all the parts that he could have stashed for himself.

Jtrux · 01-10-2009, 01:13 AM

Glad to see it being brought back to life, nice truck.

True, but he said himself and I am paraphrasing,

The truck was sitting with plans since 2005 and I didn't see myself having the time to get to it, and I didn't want it to rot away.

We have all come across those guys that will not sell and probably never get to the project. Now I have the responsibility to not let it rot away! I think that it helped his decision to let it go due to the absolutely gorgeous SWB 4x4 that he acquired.
