I recently acquired a GMC panel truck for body parts to repair my Chevy 1/2ton panel. I have tried unsuccessfully to find a GMC decoder on the internet for the early to mid 60's models. I think this truck if a 62 or 63. It has a rather large V-6 engine, 8-lug split rims, and long wheelbase (maybe a 1-ton). Any suggestions? The serial number on the ID plate is 2503PJ2604BL. Thanks.
You have a 1962 1 ton GVW 6001 to 10000lb 133 inch wheelbase made in Pontiac Michigan. Original engine would be a 305 ci V6. Go to www.6066gmcguy.org for all the info you need on this era of GMCs
Thanks for the info. Would the chassis and drive train be worth anything to anyone? I won't be using any of it and I hate to just junk it.
I am in Cocoa, Florida. That's about 45 minutes east of Orlando. I have not verified the transmission, but I believe it's a SM-420 4-speed. If you are interested, I can verify the numbers and get back with you. The engine is not currently in running condition and I'm sure it would have to be rebuilt. A freeze plug in the front is missing and mud daubers took up residence at some point. The alternator or generator was removed before I got the truck. It has the carb, starter, and a massive water pump still installed. According to the license plate on the truck it has not been registered since 1982. Let me know if you need any more info. Thanks, Fred
