Dan Solt, who's resume can be found in the hauling board, delivered it last week. It turned out to be a time capsule. It still has the OEM spark plug wires, the clutch and brake pedal pads look like new and it even still has the rubber bumpers on the door striker plates and an original spare tire carrier. Except for a few bumps, broken glass and providing a home for rats for 50 years, the thing is unbelievable. And the best thing was the price.

I have a flatbed that will fit right on it. I have close to a dozen GMCs... Mostly larger ones. I fix them to where they start and run. This one is just too original to butcher. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2013 Posts: 50 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jun 2013 Posts: 50 | Looks decent. I have been looking for a 1 ton drw parts truck for my 52 GMC to get some parts like a couple more wheels in better condition and the 4 clamping plates that were missing from mine and probably several other parts. If I had seen this one I probably would have tried to buy it since it was in OK. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2012 Posts: 441 Stovebolt Photo Moderator | | Stovebolt Photo Moderator Joined: Nov 2012 Posts: 441 | Nice Score ! Glad to see it was saved. It's in much better condition than my 47 Chevy 1-ton dually. I could use some of those 18" rims if anyone knows a source up here in the great northeast.....Maybe Maine to Delaware ?
