another ruff old truck - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**southern parts** · 11-28-2013, 08:31 PM

pulled this in a couple weeks ago. it had been setting in a junkyard for at least 20 years. the trees around it had to be cut down to get it out. looks like another old 68 I pulled home about a year and a half ago. yes it`s a 50th.
going to let it rust behind my garage for a while, at least there it wont get crushed.

I like it, has a nice patina. Good save

Man, who throws away a good truck?

Great find, Woody! Put me first in line if you get tired of it rusting behind your garage. I might just be crazy enough to buy another project!

powell72 · 11-29-2013, 02:06 AM

Way cool, not everyday someone finds a SWB 50th. I hope you get the itch to start something with it soon!

that was a neat truck back in the day.

Good save, the dash area looks to be in Purdy good shape. Congrats

That's real special! I can't wait to see it when you pull it out from rusting behind your garage and it looks like this:

Man I would love to have that truck...

MARKDTN · 12-02-2013, 08:22 AM

Is that a power brake pedal as a clutch pedal?

Steve Cole · 12-02-2013, 10:22 AM

Good save! What are your plans for it?

I can tell you if I wasn't up to my elbows in my 67 and still probably 15K out from having it done I would really make a play for this truck...

**southern parts** · 12-03-2013, 09:56 PM

i put the wheels on it. they`re perfect for a patina truck
