Re: wtb 55/56 GMC BBW shortbed

I sold a very rusty 57 GMC big window long bed 3/4 ton with a very wimpy 283 and powerglide for 350 about ten years ago. Mom's boyfriend had bought it from one of his kids years before and she ended up with it and although great looking from about 200 ft that truck needed rust repair on every panel. The back window and chrome grill and bumper an dash parts were worth more than I sold it for though.

Unless the photos are really deceiving the value in the black one is in what you don't have to do or hunt down and cash greenies may talk on it. Some potential buyers aren't going to get past the sitting on stands with no wheels and tires but that might mean a bring you own rollers barganing tool too.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
