Second owner truck I found less than 2 blocks from my house. I'm bringing it home tomorrow. My wife is not as happy as I am, but she trusts my judgement. 292 and a 4 on the floor. Needs front fenders and front and rear glass. Runs and drives like a top. Original steering wheel and radio, sail panels, and a BBW.
No rust on the cab or box that I could find.

Cool truck! Plans?

Not sure just yet, I just knew it needed to be saved.
My 60 might go on the back burner for a while.

**Mathew21** · 09-04-2015, 06:01 PM

Nice find, Congrats!

Grizz1963 · 09-05-2015, 02:26 AM

That's just silly nice.

Another truck for my dream hoard.

factorystock · 09-05-2015, 08:08 PM

Nice find, very original, even down to the 17" rims. IMO, just buff out, maintain and preserve history!

**Palf70Step** · 09-05-2015, 08:21 PM

Very Nice!

bullwinkle3331 · 09-05-2015, 09:15 PM

Great Looking Truck - Congrats and Keep Us Posted with Lots of Pics!!

rickoner · 09-05-2015, 09:31 PM

Great score! That's a nice rig for sure. Seat fabric even looks to be in great shape.

Ronzo · 09-06-2015, 01:16 PM

Pictures are too big, I'll post smaller ones shortly.
But she is in the driveway, drove it home this morning.

**TJ's Chevy** · 09-06-2015, 04:16 PM

I'm jealous...That's one good looking rig!

**Palf70Step** · 09-06-2015, 04:57 PM

She is looking good. Glad you made it home with her.

Johnny_Lamebridge · 09-06-2015, 08:02 PM

That's awesome. So much potential... or drive it as-is. Lots of fun either way.

Ronzo · 09-06-2015, 09:10 PM

Thanks guys, I am real happy to have got her home.
Found some documentation in that shows it got a rebuilt engine in 1980 at 56,418 miles.
Jack and tools under the seat where they were from day one. I need a seat rebuild, but I am more than happy to find it and bring it home. Rather than choke this server, here's the pics elsewhere...

Yeah I'm not sure I would do anything to it myself. Nice find. What's the PTO for?

The truck used to deliver heating oil in a small town, the PTO ran the pump.

Ronzo · 09-08-2015, 08:40 PM

The holes they cut.

The rest of the bed.

jdl71 · 09-08-2015, 08:57 PM

You have 6 17" wheels and tires?

Yes.
Sorry for the huge pictures.
This phone is being a bear.

Ronzo · 09-11-2015, 06:10 AM

The half ring for the horn is broken on the right side.
Can this be fixed somehow?
Got insurance and registration, been driving her around town.
Lots of thumbs up and questions from people.

Ronzo · 09-14-2015, 03:41 PM

She's too nice to flip, which was the original plan. My 1960 cab is totally shot, so till I find a good cab, the 60 is going to the side. Knowing that it'll be a few years till I get to drive it, the 64 is going to be my occasional DD and Sunday cruiser. It needs brakes looked at, and the clutch adjusted, but it drives fine. A little pin came out of the bottom of the floor shifter on my way to a car show and I suddenly had a shifter in mid air. Pushed it back in and carried on. And I am going to take the hood and grille off for repairs, so I'll be using my 60 hood and grille in it for the time being.

That was the trend back in the day to have 2 extra mud and snow tires for winter driving. I noticed the 2 spares in bed have a different wheel design, probably off a different year or wheel manufacturer.

What are you seeing that looks different? The outer ring? I'm not doubting you, I just could not tell much difference based on what I could see in the pics.

Ronzo · 11-10-2015, 03:48 PM

Went to buy the backup and tail lights, ended up buying the whole thing for $100.00. 1966 C10 frame and longbox. Came with a good front fender, and good inner fenders. After I paid him, he told me that he drove the 66 home after paying a case of beer and 3 lawn chairs. Last pic is his 60 with the 64 cab on it. He's doing body work on the 60 cab.
