    That truck is a potential money maker! I had a 67 c60 with a 292 six. Yes I could get into places where tandems and triaxeles couldn’t. Made good money with that truck, wish I had it back!

      I take it that truck doesn't have air brakes. I mean wow. That's proper old school. Even our little 7 tonners have fluid over air, gonna make interesting driving for sure. Can't wait to see what ya got in mind. 👍😁

    Most 80s chevy trucks had a safety switch on the clutch. The clutch had to be depressed before the starter would engage,

It works great for oil changes or for any reason you would be getting under a vehicle lot better than laying on concrete gravel especially dirt and itchy grass when sweaty.
