Last Cab?
 
Interesting find maybe. Picked up a parts truck today, a pickup cab on a 4X4 Blazer frame. My 10 yo daughter and I got the front clip, doors, tube bumpers and a few other things off in about 3 hours. The interesting part is that on the cowl in factory chalk is "Last 1972 6-30-72 Freemont" The vin # is CCS142Z180222. The cab is toast. If anybody wants it come and get it. lol Most rotted one I've seen on a frame. I bought it for the 4X4 stuff and some other parts inside.

Engine code is V0208THG

Man that sounds cool...Last Cab...I remember when we had a poll to see who had the first production '67 that was quite interesting...

Shoot if the part where that is chalked on is not rusted I would cut it out pretty cool stuff and something you will most likly never see agian???

I remember doing that first 67 poll....didn't we find like #7 or something?
Last 72....that is interesting. #80222 from that plant in one model year, pretty good year huh?

Is it a floor shift four speed cab? I would be interested in it if its the high center floor. I'd just need the raised part, not the whole floor.

First Cab.
 
I don't have a digi-cam but I'll try to get some regular pics tomorrow and post them later. Probably easier if I get Wally World to put them on CD.

I have not decided to sell parts yet, but the cab has a bolt in cover for the 4X4 shifter, however I don't think it was originally a high hump cab. Will keep you in mind though.

thats a cool piece of history to have the last 67-72 cab to be produced from that plant, too bad its completley shot eh?

June and July is when most plants build out.I'd say the last guy on the line had orders to mark the last one. Neat find Chuck!!!

If you wanted to cut that part out of the cab I would be interested in buying it.

Very cool! Can't wait to see the pics...

chucks70 05-08-2004 10:59 PM

I will have to find some way to cut this part out. Now where is Bozall??
I think my father in law has a sawzall I can borrow, that should do it. I am thinking about keeping this section, the VIN plate and the glove box door and keeping them on the wall in the garage.....that is when I can clean it out enough to find a wall.

I showed this thread to the guys at work...one of them stole my phrase and said "That's neater than two chicks kissing!"

Plese keep me in mind if you want to sell. Shoot me a price, I would be VERY interested in buying it from you. Thanks, Joe :)
