Headers too, I love it! It looks like at least a C40 because of the medium duty front end, running board, wheel opening and straight frame rails. See below, noting the fender flare widths:

Let's READ the advertisement....."custom C30" & "pickup truck". Vehicle for sale doesn't appear to be either of those.

Seller is a dealer. I've yet to see a mainstream dealer advertise a classic car correctly..

Our "across the street neighbor" bought a new 68 427 C50 dump truck when I was 13 yrs old. Trucking in the new sub divisions was a good business back then in Nova Scotia.  I will always remember those 427 hood callouts. He also had a  66 396 Biscayne, later  traded for a 69 427 Biscayne that he did spark and smoke shows with the studded tires. Then a 1970 454 'Scayne that tore up the pavement in front of our house big time.

 This looks like the place i bought my five wide white classic radial tires a few months ago. It is North Land Auto in Gravenhurst. I find it interesting that this is a 1968 and yet it has a single brake master cylinder. I always thought that GM went dual master system right across the board in 1967.

 Probably calling it a pickup because it doesn't have a fifth wheel receiver.  Probably was a straight truck or more likely a fire truck that just had the business end removed.  Neat truck but not finished to the point to be anything but a cruiser.

 Maybe when the seller was using the "drop down" for the body type there wasn't a viable option for stake truck or whatever you want to call this truck.

I think the truck looks cool, but in it's current configuration, what would you actually do with it?confuse

Put a hitch of some sort on it and use it as a towing rig.

I think it needs the 5th wheel back on it and a trailer like these- all done up in vintage GM livery

Oh the fun I'd have if I were worth millions! biggrin

I reviewing specifications for these trucks it looks like in 1968 you could order them with a 292 six, 327 V8 sbc and 366 V8 bbc.
