Selling a 1931 Chevy 1 1/2 Ton dually truck.

All is original:
- 131" wheel base
- Straight six engine (194 cubic inches)
- Original rims
- Original axels
- Original cab and fenders/ running boards
- Original mechanical brakes run to all 4 wheels
- Original gauges
- Original headlights
- Still has wood paneling on the inside!!

- Not running at (slowly getting the motor to turn over by hand)
- Truck does roll
- No bed, gas tank, or tail lights

- Took it to the MVD to get a bonded title because the original title was lost some years ago in my family. The MVD told me I would have to put a bed and tail lights on it in order to get the bonded title. Needless to say they have never seen a truck this old, but I figured no one will keep a cheap bed and tail lights that I throw on there just to get a bonded title. I can get a dismantled title if you would prefer... other wise a bill of sale is how it will most likely be sold. This will be a great restore project or use for original parts and pieces!!!

That thing's cool as Hell, just needs a sheet of 5/8" plywood (bed) and some cheapie farm trailer tail lights wired up. Easy-peasy.

He says all of them are for sale but the GMC was featured in the ad.

Killer Bee · 12-14-2018, 08:20 PM

I'll take one of each please...

5Tractorguy · 12-15-2018, 06:04 PM

1953 GMC Model 620 Diesel

This would make for a beautiful original restoration, don't see many twin screws around here.

I agree, would be a great restoration project.

Looks to be real solid as it is.

To increase his chances of a buyer? Ask the OP of the CL ad.

sweetk30 · 12-16-2018, 09:57 PM

well thats 3/4 the way across the country . so even if i was in the market the shipping is crazy money .

C10 - C90 Bill · 12-16-2018, 10:58 PM

Tell the guy that if he brings it to NY, where the truck is advertised at, you will take it. If you were to want it anyway.

5Tractorguy · 12-17-2018, 09:04 AM

Strange... Was scanning through CL out West last week for trucks and these popped up in an ad https://inlandempire.craigslist.org/...762536947.html

I thought it was for the one I posted above until I went back and looked. I noticed some guys post harder to find stuff across the country to draw more attention...

Nice '71 C-60 there in WA state.

That '70 C-80 would be at my house pretty quick if it were closer, lol.

Says 6 Cylinder Gas, most likely a 478 V-6. Has a 5-Speed Trans, 2-Speed Rear and also has Air Brakes. Great price to boot.

sweetk30 · 01-05-2019, 06:45 PM

Bring it home!!

Looks very Restore-able.

Let us know if you buy it.

C10 - C90 Bill · 01-05-2019, 09:10 PM

I checked in one of my 70-80 Chevy Manuals and although my book is dated '67 the HM-80 states the standard engine is a 401M and the optional a 478M. If it's the original engine still in there, it looks like it will be a Magnum. I always figured the 70 had the 401 and the 80 a 478, but let us know which one if you buy it.

sweetk30 · 01-05-2019, 10:06 PM

dont need it when i have this one already waiting for a engine . http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...&highlight=gmc

Overdriven · 01-06-2019, 05:15 AM

3 trucks for $2500. 1971 c50, 1970 GMC and a 1968 GMC, for someone who has way more space and time than me!

**regan wilson** · 01-07-2019, 08:57 AM

I have room for all three. They're to dang far away.

5Tractorguy · 01-17-2019, 08:47 AM

Just found it on the 60-66 forums CL thread. Looks to be in great shape.

Interesting truck.

But that's a first. I never saw the "Air Brake" type pedal used on the Clutch side before.

The Air Brake pedal will say "Air Brake" on it.

Would love to see a close-up shot of that Clutch pedal.

As unique as they are, I could never understand the idea of them though, lol.

Although my foot never slipped off my brake pedal, I always had it in my mind that it could, especially driving with wet boots now and then like we would.

**VictoriaHardware** · 01-17-2019, 06:53 PM

It seems to have a clutch pedal but it also seems to have an automatic shifter ? An Allison was available on '66 M80's.

I noticed that myself, but the ad states "Manual" Trans. ??
