New to Me 78 GMC Rollback
Can someone tell me what chassis/load rating a model TCE53 is? I can find no info on the net and curiosity has gotten the better of me. I assume it's a 6500?
Small block, 4 speed with granny gear and single speed rear end.. Thanks Mike Trimmier Beaufort SC  [IMG]  20160617_150853 by Michael Trimmier, on Flickr[/IMG]

Re: New to Me 78 GMC Rollback
Nice looking truck.
I'm going to say that the GVW is at or around 19,500, but look for a Tag on the Drivers Side Door Jamb.

I bought it to move some stuff around my shop here in Beaufort and plan on not hiring it out but if you need something moved in the local area let me know and we can make it happen. I may get another newer rig and actually start working it commercially. Mike
