1996 Chevrolet c3500HD CrewCab BEAST - Junkyard Rescue Take II

3 hours is just getting started.

My last 6.5L engine was only about 15 hours out, luckily I caught it on a backhaul. Nothing like jockeying a 30 foot gooseneck into a residential area on a steep sidehill to curb load a 6.5L off a crappy harbor freight hoist. we about dumped it on its side 2 or 3 times...

I love these trucks, found my 98 on offer up for 1,440$. Planning on a 12v Cummins and a fuller rto 6610 in the next few months

I found these and sent them an email. I guess it appears as if they parked the RV and just want to sell the nice tires and get a set of rollers. Which I don't have rims anyway but I guess we'll see what they say.

Or just drag that mess on the trailer with no wheels.

So those people never responded back to me (go figure), did more craigslist hunting, found some Alcoa 10 lug rims, but they were 16s and the ford lug pattern. I didn't realize how cheap decent 19.5 tires are though! Now if I could only find wheels. Every couple of days I've been checking around.

I did pick up an Escalade cluster for $47, so I'll keep it around for this truck since I have nothing 95+ minus this truck. Just something to have for when it's drivable. And this is the first one I've ever seen at pick n pull, by the time I get there it's too late and they are gone.

Do you know which company did the crew cab conversion on you truck? Mines a Jerry Adams Enterprises conversion and I haven't been able to find out anything numbers wise on how many they made. I've heard it was only around 600ish trucks that they did this to....
