Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
That thing has got a heavy front axle, wow! It's near me...if only I had someplace to park it...that chassis has rollback or ramp truck written on it to me.

I agree, it would make a nice Rollback.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
Trucks like these are begging for a 6.0 with the Allison 6-9 speed auto and use the splitter rear end.I hate seeing these trucks waist away.I hope in the next few years i can buy a few and stick the 6.0 with the auto and make them worth driving again with new power steering and hydro boost power brakes.These trucks can be Re engineered for long term use.Removing the gas take and putting a fuel sell on the side of the truck Update all the running gear.you have a truck that will get good gas mileage plus it will be a dream to drive

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
I wouldn't stick with a gas engine for something like that LCF. A project like it would need a new engine, so I'd try to find a Duramax V8 with an Allison.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
Even when I'm not looking for parts for my truck, I keep finding more trucks. And why do I always find the flatbeds? https://atlanta.craigslist.org/eat/c...501537539.html The no title situation always scares me.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
I've got a different idea for the LCF, lol.
A 4-53T Detroit with a 10-Speed Road Ranger.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
So your saying the 6.0 LS with the Allison is not a good combo for the C40--C80 1964--66 trucks.Can you explain why the 366 or 6.0 LS engine would not be a good combo.The Duramax V8 with an Allison.its a little pricey.I just want to know what are the take a way's from using the gas to using the Duramax.I've had a 1964 c60 a few years ago love the body stance and the way they looked and how they drove
Can you make the 2 speed slitter work with the Allison |

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
I believe you are referring to a 2-Speed Rear and I've never driven one with an Auto Trans, but I have heard that yes, it is supposed to work.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
I played mix-an-match with a 392, 4 Bbl IH and an Allison in a truck with an Eaton 2 speed axle.. Just back off a tiny bit and shift. It wokled fine.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
That is one of the few trucks I can say has a very honest price.
