No my dry streak continues with the ladies but I got sexed up in another way


I struck a deal on a 1947 GMC 2 ton with hydraulic bed (EC303).
fully operational (has been sitting 4 or 5 years though)
Minimal rust (all surface)
Hydraulic bed functions
Straight six with non synchro tranny and split rear
Interior is clean (considering it's age)
Titled

$400 and it is mine
I figure a little resto custom treatment and build a lowboy car bed on the back with winch and it should be the perfect barnyard digger for hauling vehicles and whatever else with.

Just had to share my find. It looks similiar to this:

 

couldn't you keep this in the same thread? :fawk:



congrats

 

in for real pics of said vehicle.

 

How the hell is this only $400?

 

Well the deal started at $1750 and then we sat around and chatted for about an hour and he turns to me and says, "So what do ya think about $400 and it's yours?"

After I picked up my jaw I asked if he was sure that was what he wanted for it and he simply said, "I know it's going to a good home and you will use it, thats all I care about".

 

Oh and aside from getting it fully running one of the first things that will be done is to chop the roof line about 3-4 inches

 

Oh and update the electrical to 12volt negative ground instead of the 6 volt positive ground system it has now h:

 

dude... thats one sweet ass score.. treat her well!
