Modified 67-72 Short Bed Rolling chassis for sale - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Smooth68 · 05-05-2003, 11:56 PM

Here's what I've got - stock 67-72 frame that has been sectioned from the cab back. The sectioned portion of the frame has been boxed for strength. It has a narrowed Ford 9" 31 spine rear (4:10) which is hung via 2 custom bent leaf spring packs that have been chromed. It has chrome u-bolt plates and rear hangers. The front end is 1981 unit with new tie-rods, arms and joints, disk brake rotors and calipers. All the A-arms have been chromed. It has the stock chevy 5X5 bolt pattern front and rear. It also has a set of chrome shocks. The frame has been sandblasted and painted already and the color is the '91 s10 seamist green. There is a little surface rust on the A-arms but overall all the chrome is still in very good condition. I will include the wheels and tires that are on it as they are just rolling stock, although the 2 front tires are brand new BF Goodrich TA radials. I'm asking $1000.00 o.b.o.

The reason for selling is simply I'm still looking for a stock coil spring frame and there is a board member that has something I'm interested in - If I can sell my setup everybody can benefit. Let me know if anyone has any questions.

I know...but you never get out what you put into them. I'm just really want to get moving on mine and this is the only way it will happen. Otherwise the whole thing will be for sale -

Yeah...I'm just wanting a "Nice" driver now. When this project was started I had just finished and sold my '89 silverado that I showed for a couple of years. I was really into the Pro-Street - now 3 young wonderful boys later I just want to get the truck drivable and make some progress.

Sorry meathead, The wheels were custom Boyds and they were sold.

katdaddy · 05-07-2003, 08:24 AM

Have you gotten rid of that chassis yet? Looks like a hell of a deal...

Smooth68 · 05-07-2003, 08:57 AM

Still available

katdaddy · 05-09-2003, 12:26 PM

360hp350 · 05-10-2003, 09:56 PM

Does the cab and bed come with the truck? Interested in trading anything? I have several GMs I'd trade. Anywhere from 78-88. Holler at me if you want to deal. I have a 78 2wd Suburban, 88 2 door 2wd S-Blazer, and an 83 Trans Am. Thanks I live in southwest missouri.

This deal is for the rolling chassis only - I'm going to have to pass on any trades, Thanks.

69c10stepside · 05-11-2003, 11:25 PM

What kind of difference would you want between your setup and a stock 71 swb coil spring rearend chassis? email me if you dont care big-frank@eritter.net Thanks

MOTHERTRUCKERS · 05-14-2003, 06:45 AM

I have a 68 shortbed coil spring rolling chassie on 5 lug disc brake that has been checked on a Genesis 3 frame machine, (18 check points within .004 difference) sand blasted and painted PPG comercial gloss black. It has Western drop spindles, Eibach springs Wagner brakes and all new Moog suspension parts that have been powder coated black. It's set up with a 2 1/2 and 4 inch drop. Email if interested in a trade of some kind or call tollfree 1 866 755 6772. We can deliver and pick up the frames.

It's really hard to believe you are getting ready to get rid of that chassis dude. I am hooked on that joint. Trying to figure how to get that to NC. Let me know if you've sold it yet, I'm going to find someone to bring it to NC.

Does that drive shaft come with it???

katdaddy · 05-22-2003, 08:52 AM

I'm really interested in that Chassis, might have to sleep in the doghouse for a while but I think I'm going to get that if you still have it available. I'll figure a way to get it home.

Let me know if it's still available and give me some contact information and we'll work this out.
