Well, I've been lookin' for a decent/used flatbed/tiltbed tow truck bed for a while, to put on my Isuzu cab & chassis
Then, last month, while lookin' on CL, I came across a 1991 GMC Top Kick with an aluminum flatbed on it.
The ad just said Flatbed Tow Truck $13,000.00
then, 1991 Top Kick in the description
...plus there were a couple of pics (see below)
So, after conversing back & forth, he told me about the steering having excess play & the throw out bearing (for the clutch) was "chattrering'
...he said he'd take $10,000 cash for it.
It seemed like a nice truck with a solid bed on it (that's mainly what I wanted)
...& he assured me it should/would make it back to Toledo
...so, me & the wife planned a road trip
it was in Blanchester Ohio, down near Cincinnati (~200 miles from Toledo)
