my 1st dentside
i bought my 1st dentside last night. 77 250, 400 c6 dont now what x case yet d44 d60. i think it might be a highboy, i havent realy looked at it yet.
owner said it doesnt run good and might need a motor but will see. have to re wire some thing too. has rust in floors and the other bedside and cab corner. going to scrap the side steps too.
hope to get it registerd tomorow (was at the dmv 3 times today) then i can bring it home hopefully thursday.

How do you tell by looking? I thought the grill split at the same time.
I kinda feel like a tard now.
Edit: Is it the axle?

The tell-tale sign was the "missing" crossmember under the front bumper.

Welcome to the club.
Woohoo how 'bout those steps.
Any of that stuff that's not right can be fixed.
Nice purchase.

Nice buy. FYI.. them side steps could be worth a few bucks to the right buyer. That is if they fit right and are not cobbled to fit. It's not like they make a whole lotta accessories for these rigs anymore.

It comes from years of trying to discern a 1/2 ton from a 3/4 ton, a 2wd from a 4wd, a highboy from a lowboy, etc. etc., all from a hundred feet away while trying to drive down the road at 50mph.
