I was looking at website and found this 1961 COE for sale looks cool...

That is pretty cool. Makes you wonder how they dented the hood so far up in the air. Usually the hoods on something this tall are mint.

notice that it is a LCF that has the short hood...
I like the "spartan" emblems on the hood, also a v8.....

There is also one here in my town but its a 1964 and its ROUGH...

I should start a roofing business, or a farm, so I have a use for some of these...

also noticed it has a 5 speed, some of those are a bolt in for a c10 I think.

I thought it would be cool to either make it a autotransporter.... or put that body on a 1/2 ton frame and slam it.... it would'nt be hard you'd probably have to lift a 1/2 frame just to clear the front end

Before and After...haha

61TWUK · 02-09-2010, 03:23 PM

here is a crapy fleetside version

jonzcustomshop · 02-09-2010, 03:23 PM

or this..

61TWUK · 02-09-2010, 03:28 PM

that truck is actually where I got the idea...

jonzcustomshop · 02-09-2010, 04:11 PM

It might look kind of cool to see one like that , but with the lcf front instead of the regular one..

That's cool
that cab with a short fleet might be just the right lenght for a blazer chassis
jacked up in the air of course,with matching fender flairs on the back
