Re: Thoughts on this truck....
headlight bezels look nice
|
Re: Thoughts on this truck....
Plenty of patina for everyone :lol:
|
Re: Thoughts on this truck....
I was looking at that thing, I would say you're buying a frame and a title. Not a bad deal but definitely a project.

Re: Thoughts on this truck....
1st picture shows rear axle awkwardly forward???
|
Re: Thoughts on this truck....
That grille is straighter than it has a right to be and oh look. It has that flow through tail gate on it. 😉
|
Re: Thoughts on this truck....
Where's it at ? I'll go look at it , I.see a ton of parts . look past the rust .
|
Re: Thoughts on this truck....
That'll all buff out. ;)
|
Re: Thoughts on this truck....
I wouldn't pay $500 for it.....
I just bought a rust free '70 CST C10 for 1K here in Ca. (seller wanted $2500 but was very motivated) It even had a bed side tool box ! |
Re: Thoughts on this truck....
If the frame is nice,title good and vin plate intact I would buy it.A real short bed not a cut down long bed!![a little humor].If you have the room and spare change you can't go wrong..probably could get it a bit cheaper.

Re: Thoughts on this truck....
Buy the truck, get a couple of cans of this, and it'll be good as new within 24 hours!

Re: Thoughts on this truck....
Let me know where it is at... I will go get it without hesitation...
|
Re: Thoughts on this truck....
I love trucks like that. Don't look beyond the rust or remove it, look at it. It's a beauty. Just get it mechanically working, wash the windows, and drive it as is.

I would buy it, there is surely parts that could be sold if it is not able to be restored. You could probably get it for 300. I have seen trucks get parted out on here that should have been left drivers.

Re: Thoughts on this truck....
Look at the other good stuff he has though unfortunately he already sold the k10

I've got a few l6's everything else is just time .don't be scared it's just metal .

Re: Thoughts on this truck....
Hey grumpy, if you go up will you look at the 71-72 grills for me he has that one listed for 50 and the other for 125
|
Re: Thoughts on this truck....
I'm going to call about it just to kinda get a feeling for the seller's opinions on it...now days everybody thinks everything(they have) is worth a fortune...
Grumpy is correct, there are a lot of hidden treasures around this part of the country.....ya never know. |

Re: Thoughts on this truck....
Called and left message ,how many of you guys decided hey may as well give a call ?
|
Re: Thoughts on this truck....
I don't have the time, the money, or most of all, the space for any more "problem" vehicles. Calling him would only waste his time.
You guys have at it though.....probably some ultra rare 292 in there worth thousands. :lol: *I'm sure Permatex could be gotten in drums. You may need it! |

I thought about buying it to cure my wife's constipation.....if I came dragging that truck home....she would sh*t......:lol:
|
Re: Thoughts on this truck....
It might have 1 or 2 good parts but my .02 cents I would leave it right where it sits
|
Re: Thoughts on this truck....
Well you all are scaredy cats ! 😁 I just bought it , good frame ,radio delete ,flip seat ,AND A CLEAR TITLE with vin tags intact . Good old boy with a bunch of old trucks and cars ,it's titled as a 1968 chevy c-10 and he has the old front-end parts.
Anyone need GMC grille ? For the guys who haven't done it before this is how you get a short bed frame for free . It will be a complete part out ,I have cabs and engines . She's a beauty ain't she ? |
Re: Thoughts on this truck....
good job Grumpy old man!!
|
Re: Thoughts on this truck....
When you start adding up the parts 6 intake exhaust ,column ,seat,tail lights,grille ,etc,etc, it's worth a LOT more .

|

Re: Thoughts on this truck....
I would have snapped that up in a second just for the matching frame, intact vins, and title. Have everything to put it together.
|
Re: Thoughts on this truck....
If ya ask me that's not a bad deal for a real swb. Sure it looks rough but a good frame and title is really all ya need too start and of course a decent cab also.
Around here you might get the frame and a little more for 5 bills but not a complete truck. But it also depends on the seller. Did the op decide too pass on it? |
Re: Thoughts on this truck....
Grumpy bought it

Re: Thoughts on this truck....
Vin CE148B
V8 1/2 ton 68 Baltimore something tells me this old truck has stories to tell yet , I can't wait to dig thru it and see what's really going on .if the cab doesn't have major issues I have all the parts to put it back together as a Chevy with a coil spring rear frame using parts from a long bed frame I've been looking to sell . I also have a very nice Gmc short bed frame that needs a rear axle . Can anyone tell how many nubs are on those wheels ? You know sometimes buying these things sight unseen can be an adventure in its self .Like I needed one more project ,I just can't keep from buying somewhat intact $500.00 trucks ! And it's only 70 miles away . I mean really it's priced at scrap value . |
