The Stovebolt Site Forums The Parking Lot Big Bolts 1960 GMC V4000 help

Bartamos, thanks for the help. The glove box plate lists same model and serial as vin. 305B engine NP540 transmission type CD26 speed 5DD

RTS identification I8I5 Cab

Also lists info on front and rear axle and axle ratio. # leaf springs .

I will eventually find a smaller truck too to make my daily driver. Years ago I had a '56 GMC pickup with the deluxe cab, wrap around rear window etc. I want to get back to an inline six and three on the tree. This big one will be used to haul my tractors around and bring stuff back from farm auctions and CL hunts. My '88 Blazer is just not big enough to pull the load, a recent hair-raising trip back from the hills, in pouring rain, trailering an International 404 is what sent me scouting for a bigger truck. My rollback will do it when it's running, which is not now of course but not anywhere near as cool as a '60 big bolt. I found a couple options for a daily driver candidate nearby but have to wait until I get some more money ;-)

The fun's in the hunt...
