WIW Short Wheel Base 4x4 chassis - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

JimmyFloyd · 05-20-2009, 09:31 AM

Well, I am looking at another project to go with my blazer. I found another guy selling a short wheel base 4x4 frame with axles and bumpers I believe. No motor, trans, body. What would be a good price for this? I was reading that the short wheel base 4x4's were harder to find so this caught my eye.

If it hasn't been sandblasted and repainted, and if it only has the plain 10 bolts for axles, I wouldn't go over $200 for it... And that assumes everything is in good shape, no cracks near the steering box, etc. You can get a worn out/ rusty complete short bed 4x4 for $500 or under, might not run, but, it'd be all there and maybe have some usefulness to the other parts....

What year chassis are you talking about ? If it's a 67-72 they are hard to come by. In nice shape $500 to $1,500. I sold a 70 swb 4x4 bare frame, blasted & painted for $700 2 years ago.

*smart* question.... somehow I had 73-87 on the brain and was thinking it was that....

JimmyFloyd · 05-20-2009, 03:45 PM

yes, this would be a 67-72. I believe it's a 68 or 70. can't remember. not sure if it includes a title.

I just got $850. for a 72 115" K frame, complete with all x-members and hangers but no springs/axles.

JimmyFloyd · 05-21-2009, 09:02 AM

hrm. So it sounds like something I should probably pick up if it's within my price range since I may be considering a SWB 4x4 at some point?

Classic Bowties, did you clean up the frame at all, or was it as found? Did you have a title with it?

**CUSTOM/10** · 05-21-2009, 09:22 AM

If your thinking about possibly putting together a swb 4x4 than deffinately check it out !!! I also have a lead on a swb 4x4 chassis, and will pick it up just because there so hard to come by.

The one I sold for $700 was blasted, epoxy primed & topped with urethane had the cross members and the matching vin tag & tittle. It was pitted but still solid.

I paid $1,300 for a complete,yet fairly rusty`71 SWB K/10.The frame is very clean,not pitted or scaley.The more complete the better.

Hey JimmyFloyd, if you don't buy it hook a brother up and send me his contact info. I am looking for a 67-72 4x4 frame for my C10 body.

Thx
