These pictures really makes me want to go work on my 68's but when it's only 5 degrees outside, I hit the brakes when the door opens. lol. Nice rides gentlemen.

Just got this rig today. Used to have a dump bed that didn't work so a flat bed may be down the road:metal: 1971 Custom 30, 350, 4-speed, pto and buddy buckets!

My 68 car hauler...454/400, tilt, cruise available, front disc brakes, 342 posi 14 bolt, factory tach.

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
 

Wow. By far the best looking 67-72 c30 I’ve seen!

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
 

Whoa, really? Thank you very much! As there are fantastic looking and functional trucks on this thread!

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
 

My old gurl, too think that it was built before any one of the kids pictured were on the radar.

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
 

Here are my 2.

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
 

Excellent project!
The bed frame on that is factory stock with the curved corners. If you don't use it, take it apart and store it in your stash of truck parts....either that, or I could store it up here in my stash... :)

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
 

Thanks for the info on the flat bed! I wondered if it was aftermarket or not. Even though the truck does not run yet (just bought it recently), my children are inexplicably drawn to sit on the bed, and even take their dinner plates outside to picnic on it! It appears that the metal top of this bed was added and that there may have been a wooden one once, but I am not sure.

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
 

I can't say with 100% conviction, but I'm pretty sure that the truck left the factory with a long leaf yellow pine deck that was nine boards wide. Over the course of time it's not uncommon for a couple of them to swell and buckle upwards because the stringers usually prevented them from buckling down. Some previous owner may have put a steel deck on it because it was easier than replacing the wood.

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
 

I have that same bed and it’s listed on the spid

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
 

Good looking truck Joe. Did you change the wheels from the two-piece or did GMC come with those rims?

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
 

They were changed

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
 

I dont remember ever seeing this truck Joe, sure is a Beauty!

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
 

It was a pretty nice truck. I sold it, but I kept the bed. The guy that bought it was going to change the bed, so I kept it

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
 

Nice! Was it originally a GMC or do you like the 4 headlights better?

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
 

originally a chevy 2 headlight system. Was gonna leave it BUT frame was cracked rad support rotted fenders look good but someone stuffed rags in voids years ago rotted from inside out, 283 began smoking soooo new fenders rad support hood 454 and 1987 dually 4x4 frame to make long story as short as possible. I do like gmc 4 headlight look better

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
 

A couple of the old ones. 70 had 19.5s on the front and the 62 had 17.5s

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
 

I've often wondered if big truck 22's would look too cartoonish on our trucks.
Has anyone here tried them?

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
 

Mine is still a working progress

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
 

Right on, I love the GMC look!

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
 

My 1968 wrecker. In our family since new.

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
 

Now that's a piece of history! Very cool to still be in the family.

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
 

Good looking truck, how is it used these days?

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
 

Very cool!
They look like later model wheels (one piece,) What size are they?

Nice truck!

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
 

I drive it a couple of times a month. I use it for myself now days as the picture shows. Buried the lawn mower after a lot of rain. Then buried the truck trying to pull the mower out. lol. The other picture is what it looked like before I drug it out of the field after sitting 29 years.

The wheels are factory original 18" Split Rims. Thanks for the comments.

There's more information in the
67-72 Chevrolet & GMC Pickups Projects and Builds forum.

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
 

Love the wheels. Thought they were 19.5s at first. Never knew that size existed

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
 

My Alcoa 22" 10 lugs should be here by the end of the week I'll post some pics up once the tires get mounted
