Traded a 2000 Saturn to a young married couple yesterday for this:

The plans for it are to get it in shape over the next three years so my boy can have a first car to go to school in. In the mean time, I'm going to be driving it and grabbing parts for the 52 Chevy 3/4 ton.

No, but thanks for the idea!! The seat in it now is covered in some kind of cloth so you don't sink through to the springs... I haven't had a chance to pull it back to see how bad they are yet, but wouldn't mind putting some buckets in it!

Nice!

PAWS 72 · 11-13-2012, 02:53 AM

Well I guess I'll be posting here also.Just got my 84 home from dad's.I bought it about 6 weeks ago but hadn't had the time to get it.When I was working for dad I drove this one all the time. The ladder rack will go back home.

I 've still got the 71 and 72.

PAWS 72 · 11-13-2012, 02:55 AM

also did they make many long step sides? The SPID shows a 131.5 wb.

1985-GMC · 11-13-2012, 06:16 PM

Yeah but most of them went to company's for service trucks etc.. or over to Saudi Arabia for oil related stuff.

PAWS 72 · 11-13-2012, 10:59 PM

I was wondering.I always thought lwb were 127 and longhorns? were 133.

1985-GMC · 11-13-2012, 11:46 PM

I was just talking about square bodys, stepsides and fleetsides had the same wheelbase.
K5=106.5
swb=117.5
burbs=129.5
lwb=131.5
crew=164.5
cab&chassis=135.5,159.5

127 and 133 is correct for 67-72's
