I have no words for this.

Andy4639 · 04-28-2009, 03:29 AM

I like it. It's not your everyday 67 that's for sure!

OARNGESI · 04-28-2009, 05:15 AM

That could be pretty cool

Longhorn Man · 04-28-2009, 05:50 AM

cowl chassis.... very ugly.

bigguy69 · 04-28-2009, 05:55 AM

man, just imagine the amount of mtn dew you could haul on your next road trip!

**special-K** · 04-28-2009, 06:26 AM

Sorry,can`t see the ugly.I see the ever so popular`68 front clip and a milk truck.I see the best looking milk truck on the road.It`s a StepVan in the rear and a`68 Chevy up front.What I see is a perfect swap meet rig for me.I love anything with a Chevy/GMC face.

This guy loved his egg delivery truck so much he restored it when he retired.Now he hauls brush and whatnot.That`s my kinda Chevy truck lover.

big_al_71 · 04-28-2009, 06:47 AM

I see what could be a SERIOUS Hot Rod delivery truck..

* 572 with a pro-charger
* Bad ass Paint job
* Bad ass interior
*Air ride
**22x15 rear wheels
* 20x8 front wheels

It would be

**70cst** · 04-28-2009, 07:20 AM

If it had a good paint job the looks would 100% different and better. As it sits I see two trucks. But there is potential to make it something special.

cdowns · 04-28-2009, 08:36 AM

does anybody still have milk delivery in thier area??

it used to be cool they'd give out promo comic books and toys when i was a kid

**1971 GMC SHORTY** · 04-28-2009, 10:49 AM

i bid on it going to go look at it tomarrow... it is a sweet ride perfect tool truck or swap meet, parts chaser....

**leddzepp** · 04-28-2009, 10:54 AM

You never know what you will find in the desert...

Livrat · 04-28-2009, 11:01 AM

I love it!!
Good thing its too far away for me!! I can visualize a blown 427, chopped top, bagged, dropped to the weeds... I have always liked "different"

Sigh..............................................

pinnedcr250f · 04-28-2009, 12:25 PM

Rock on! That thing is sweet, I would totally drive that, bags, white walls and loud pipes.... ohhhhhh yaaaaaaaa

**El Jay** · 04-28-2009, 03:40 PM

If I were lots younger, I could see a sign on the back, like the old hippy vans; "Don't laugh, your daughter could be in here."

With out the sign, I could drive that. I can see a of uses for it, like mobile repairs, etc.

**leddzepp** · 04-28-2009, 05:20 PM

Van's a rockin'.....don't come a knockin'

68caliRat · 04-28-2009, 11:33 PM

Buy it for the clip!

**truckfan** · 04-28-2009, 11:58 PM

would be cool chopped. have seen a few school buses done this way. very cool.

dan42 · 04-29-2009, 12:16 AM

Interesting that he lists it as a '69 - you wouldn't think someone would just change the front clip on that thing, but maybe they did.

westofb · 04-29-2009, 12:58 AM

I thought it was odd that it has the 1/2 ton fender badges, looks to be 1 ton chassis (judging by front wheels, I think it has dual rear wheels also, but a little hard to tell in pics).

B52fizzle · 04-29-2009, 01:36 AM

would be awesome parts chaser, dont think that is original fender, but that is a dual set up unless its a widetrack like a chevy prototype i saw once to eliminate the wheel wells in truck bed. also looks to be 5 or 6 lugs in the front, wasnt the 5 lug like a 1 1/2 ton?

We do.It`s a fairly new dairy farm that brought it back.Kind of like a micro-dairy.I`ve noticed the trucks and boxes on door steps farther and farther away.Purdy dang kewl!

**FleetsidePaul** · 04-29-2009, 12:09 PM

Thats an old Alta Dena Dairy truck, you can still see the logo. They ran them forever, I think they finally stopped delivery a few years back. The one that was used around here was even older, it had a 65 or 66 front end on it.

magsnubby · 04-29-2009, 01:55 PM

All kinds of visions running through my head....shop truck....swap meet hauler....bagged and flamed street cruiser....custom camper....

**special-K** · 04-30-2009, 08:18 AM

A bread box with "The Look"...soooo coooool.So,who bought it?
