Are there not alot of guys with 4x4's - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**rs74** · 07-26-2013, 07:54 PM

Just wondering. While I love seeing the two wheel drives I also like seeing the 4wd's too. I miss my old 63 K20.

Yeah I would like to buy my old 63 back. I just have to have the $4500 that I sold it to the guy to get it back. Just don't have the extra right now to do that.

Where did you get six lug vette rallies at? I don't think I have ever seen them before.

RANDY COX · 07-26-2013, 09:23 PM

I bought those at a swap meet there aftermarket wheels,you can actually buy them with all different bolt patterns now even F-O-R-D..had them on my 48 fleetline car six lug..But went back with original 16's on my car so I put these on my truck...Need to go bigger on my tires..they look small on truck now...

franken · 07-26-2013, 10:37 PM

4x4s are in general rare. Even more true in the early to mid-60s, not to mention before.
I love the personality of an old (or not 4x4) but not everyone does...

**rs74** · 07-26-2013, 10:41 PM

I figured they were a little on the rare side to come across everyday. I am a short bed type of guy myself but I always have had a soft spot for the older 4x4's. I just don't see alot of them on here was the only reason I asked. Would be nice to see more of them posted up.

franken · 07-27-2013, 12:00 AM

I like the longbeds but happy to see any 4x4s w/ straight axles. Even...Fords

**62 Longbed** · 07-27-2013, 02:38 AM

You do know there is a offroading section on here? Here is the link. This should make you happy

Thanks, yes I am aware of the section. They are kind of far and few between there too.

Here's a few - I had to compress them to fit so they are kind of small...

66Gilbert · 07-27-2013, 11:57 AM

I own three, 1966 short bed 4x4, 1965 long bed 4x4, 1964 short bed 4x4. There are not too many members on here that own 4x4's but there are a lot of them out there. You have probably seen the thread on this 60-66 forum. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=459816

ky-donzi · 07-27-2013, 12:05 PM

I'd say most 4x4 didnt survive as well as 2wds, and with lower production numbers when compaired to 2wds there are not as many out there, but.... There are still a lot around.

Yes it does. Rockwell 221 t-case, tranny, diffs all original. When I got the truck back to AZ, I went through the drivetrain replacing all fluids - input/output shaft seals, pinion seals, and u-joints. Drives nice but I need the steerng box rebuilt and a windshield to make it road worthy. Needs alot of rust control (fenders, rockers, cab supports, etc.) and a few other things.
