pokethesmot · 06-30-2009, 07:19 PM

but i am wondering were any of these 4wd and about how much did u guys pay for yours...cuz i would really enjoy getting one as a project

GRIMSS · 06-30-2009, 08:24 PM

Which year would that be AD trucks 47-early the 55 or TF late 55-59? Some of the TF trucks had 4wd option, but kind of hard to come by.

Prices vary, but you can find some pretty cheap if you look.

entourageguy · 06-30-2009, 08:40 PM

And what type of truck is it that you like? A picture would help a lot.

57ToyBox · 06-30-2009, 08:47 PM

I might be wrong, but I think your talking about the Tri Five Chev trucks???

blackdiesel · 06-30-2009, 09:43 PM

Poke, are you lost... LOL Just kidding you can come down here whenever you want. I know I go slumming up your way, to see whats going in the square body world every now and then.

pokethesmot · 06-30-2009, 11:14 PM

this body style lol but if i did get one i would want it to be 4wd and lifted lol

MrTucker · 07-01-2009, 09:32 AM

Here's one, dont know anything about it though

OrrieG · 07-01-2009, 10:54 AM

Do a search for NAPCO. Here is one of the threads

There have also been a number of conversions done here, I think there are currently 3, including mine, underway. Its not any harder than doing a clip or S10 conversion.

Ill be doing a 59 GMC on a 89 burb 4 wheel drive frame Ill get pic. up once I get rolling with it

blackdiesel · 07-01-2009, 12:59 PM

Well poke, you could take your truck down to the frame and put the sheetmetal off the truck of choice on it. That's the way I made mine. (77 short wheel base). Yes, the frontend is a little wide. but if your going big tires and wheels their going to stick out anyway. An S-10 might be a better starter for a AD truck.

pokethesmot · 07-01-2009, 01:09 PM

this sounds like a plan lol

Bigblue29 · 07-01-2009, 01:44 PM

This is the BIGGEST AD truck I have ever seen! dont know anything about it but I think it was put on some other frame... possibly a full size

The guy standing behind the truck is about 6' tall! This thing was huge

Hey Poke,

There's been a truck like Bigblue posted for sale in Kijiji under Toronto, Canada that is similar but finished with a nice paint job. It isn't there today but he was asking $12000 Canadian. It is on a full size gm truck frame with huge wheels. The paint is Viper Red with flames on the front and the "Hot Wheels" logo across the tailgate.
