JTFormula Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I don't know what it is with this GMC but for dirt cheap money I think I need it just to tool around town. Looks like it is fairly solid and would be an easy resto. http://newyork.craigslist.org/fct/cto/3230952964.html Quote ~ JT Burkard ~ AKA Sweaty Mackwww.jtresto.com www.wickedreputation.netwww.jonathanthomasmotorcars.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavyGunner Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 I don't think Chevy made a 401, AMC did. Cool ride for the money though.

mike69mackman Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Might be a 454 motor but none the less a cool ride fixed up. I've always liked the looks of those older Chevy and gmc's. If you want it go get it. Just make sure it's got a good title lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTFormula Posted August 31, 2012 Author Share Posted August 31, 2012 The 401 was a gas v6. It's not a v8. Those truck v6's went from 305cid all the way up to 478cid v6's. Not a bad motor. I left a message so let's see what he says. Cool thing is I think there is enough room to install a sleeper.

I am thinking of picking this one up. Getting it fixed up a bit then flipping it. I can raise Mack money that way. I already put in an offer for a F350 wrecker with a Vulcan body on the back as well. I can always use a 1 ton tow truck.
