How rare is a '63 3/4 factory 4x4? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

jbailly · 07-25-2011, 02:47 PM

Hi guys. Just wondering if this would be a truck to buy or not? It is on my local craigslist just curious.
Thanks,
Jon

Hope this works.

**Clyde65** · 07-25-2011, 03:29 PM

buy it!

**special-K** · 07-25-2011, 03:36 PM

Let's just say there aren't many running around the east these days. Not many sitting around either. If you are asking from an investment point of view,there are better investments. If you are asking from an interested enthusiast point of view,then you better hurry and buy it because it's cool as he!!.

That looks like a beast!!

**Chevy Fleetside** · 07-25-2011, 03:56 PM

If you buy it you can lose about 1000 lbs getting rid of that front bumper...

j.kirn · 07-25-2011, 04:23 PM

The 60-63 3/4 tons are rare and at 1200 thats cheap.

'63GENIII · 07-25-2011, 11:13 PM

I agree with all the above. Ive got the 1/2 ton which seems much more common. I think more of the 3/4 tons were bought to do 1 ton work and therefore rode hard put away wet if even put away at all. Yes for 1200 it is rare!

padresag · 07-25-2011, 11:29 PM

this stuff was never rare

fryer1979 · 07-26-2011, 05:01 AM

I don't know how rare it may or may not be, but I would be all over that like a fat kid on a twinky......so f'in kool!

P.S. no offense meant to fat kids, I are one!

glos55 · 07-26-2011, 05:17 AM

Well......the balls in your court! You could probably show up with 1000.00 and own it!

dodgiesdad · 07-26-2011, 05:24 AM

$1200 probabaly is not too bad, as long as it is not all rusted out. I would look at it but, I already have 1 4x4 driver and 2 I have bought for parts, I don't think my wife would understand. Did you notice he started at $4000 a month ago says its a NAPCO and he pulled it out of a barn after 20years.

jbailly · 07-26-2011, 06:54 AM

No I didn't, but good to know. Also great to know that there is someone local to me on this board.

duallyjams · 07-26-2011, 07:32 AM

PA is very hard on trucks as rust goes.There is another 4x4 in PA for sale on ebay that is toast as far as the body goes and they are asking 1,000. You will have to go and look at it and see.

BeanWhop · 07-26-2011, 07:36 PM

Here is one i just called about today. It sure sounds rough from the description he gave on the phone. I forgot to ask if it was a 3/4 ton or not.

Here is a good reference for production numbers but they dont have any real numbers prior to 1965 - http://reocities.com/MotorCity/speed...roduction1.htm

**tkeduk8r** · 08-01-2011, 07:08 PM

I have been looking for one for about 5 years... that sounds like a decent deal to me, and you prolly wont find another one for a while....JMO

j.kirn · 08-03-2011, 04:48 PM

How many 2 wheel drives were made and how many 4 wheel drives were made especially 3/4 tons, and out of what was made how many are left,not to many. OH by the way not to many had winches on them

padresag · 08-03-2011, 05:02 PM

thousands and winches were more than likely dealer installed at time of purchase
