Thread: Ugly but rare milk truck

Tweet

I did some more research on this truck and from what I can tell, these weren't offered after 1969. And they only made 236 in 1969 anyway. So it definitely is rare. A good friend of mine says we should take all my BBC parts, throw it together and stick it in this truck. Put headers and side exiting exhaust on it and just take it to Good guys and cruise it. He said keep it don't sell it. I just might do that. I was going to sell it but I am starting to think this thing could be set up as a camper and haul a bumper camper as well. There are so many possibilities for it. It has the same frame as my Longhorn and this truck has a GVWR of 14k.

My Dad and I did get the old 6 cylinder running off a bottle of gas a while back. The old thing didn't smoke too bad and sounds pretty good. I happen to have the correct engine mounting provisions for a 1972 truck for a BBC so we will see. Haha I also acquired a couple of cabs over the summer that I can cut pieces out of the floor to fix the floor in this truck. My brother had some 19.5 wheels that have the same lug pattern and we put 3 of those on this thing to get it off the trailer. I'll probably put the other 3 on and leave 19.5s on it for now as they are almost free.
