They did have one but they must have sent it to the crusher. I remember looking at it becuase I wanted to pull the dash gauges for the vac gauge. I didn't have my tools on me so I passed. I'll keep looking.

T.Matthews · 02-28-2005, 05:36 PM

well I have exhausted all my leads on far as phone calls are made. I have one right fender for 155 delivered,butit is sight unseen out of Pennsilvania.

So I don't know.

T.Matthews · 03-01-2005, 09:56 AM

I just called a large parts distibutor in NH and they discontinued those parts back in the early 90's. What is the odds of someone still having those parts in their stock?

70 shorty · 03-01-2005, 07:05 PM

That's why I would be investigating that NOS fender. NOS means it's brand new and never been installed on anything. That could be the real deal there!

T.Matthews · 03-01-2005, 07:59 PM

I did and unfortuatly it is the wrong style fender or I won't have been all over it like pigs in the mud.

T.Matthews · 03-02-2005, 02:36 PM

Any luck anyone finding them yet?

T.Matthews · 03-03-2005, 05:13 PM

Where did everyone go?

72gord · 03-03-2005, 07:20 PM

The one I took, a while back, also got crushed

67_C-30 · 03-03-2005, 08:10 PM

I have a C-50 wrecker, and I know where several parts truck are that I get stuff for mine. Which parts are you still in need of? Just to make sure, Are you looking for parts that look like the one below?

T.Matthews · 03-04-2005, 10:53 AM

Nice truck.......yes mine looks like that although it appears that you fenders are more flared like the ones that where on the C-60 follow link to look at mine. I 'm in real need of fenders. The picture was a while ago.

Thanks for any help,

T.Matthews · 03-07-2005, 09:29 AM

i'm going to look at some trucks locally today, hopfully it will have some good parts.

T.Matthews · 03-11-2005, 07:50 AM

Very soon I 'm going to have to start begging people to look in their garages, shopes neighbors yards to find these parts. I'm just hoping somebody I come across has a pair in their stock covered in dust never used. That is just wishful thinking. Anyone out there have anymore ideas?

Thanks

I was at a yard yesterday that had a c50 and c60. I forgot to check the fenders for you. I know the doors were rusted so I wouldn't hold out a whole lot of hope. their name is Al's Auto Parts in Mechanicsville, VA. Sorry I can't find the number, for some reason they're not in the phone book. If you can't find it PM me and I see if I can dig it up.

T.Matthews · 03-11-2005, 01:59 PM

Just checked out heavytruckparts.net said it had one at activet ruck parts in Colorado. Called and they don't have it anymore. I 'm loosing all my energy that was to go into fixing this truck. I may just have to put her out to pasture.

krue · 03-11-2005, 03:16 PM

I am just curious why the fenders with the slightly different flare wouldn't work? Seems nobody would notice the difference to me.

TRUCKGUY · 03-11-2005, 03:37 PM

is that your truck in the link above? whats wrong with the fenders onit?

T.Matthews · 03-11-2005, 04:02 PM

Just recieved word from Arizona they have my parts and are guarunteed tp be rust, rot and damaged free. 150 each so I ordered them. I 'm hoping they are the right ones.

biglou55 · 03-14-2005, 08:41 AM

thier is a 71 o72 C50 or C 60 dumptruck at cotton,s tree service in northhampton Ma. it was there last year. I looked at it because it has a 427 gm. goodwrench in it. the whole truck appeared to be in good shape. I know they have it parked out back not being used any more. might be worth a call. just for spare parts. hope you get lucky.

T.Matthews · 03-17-2005, 08:39 AM

Still nothing Arizona screwed me now i'm looking at getting behind on getting this painted. Anyone else have any ideas?

Thanks, Tom

GMC AMI · 03-17-2005, 09:21 AM

They must have a long one to screw you from all the way out there!

Why did they take your money and not deliver? If they did not, just how did they screw you?
