gmcviking's 1960 Chevrolet Apache Honeyville, UT - 2 1960 Chevrolet Viking L60 Low Cab Forward Truck (LCF). It has a 400 cid Chevy Small block, 4-speed transmission and a two speed rear axle. It was use to tow mobile homes in a past life, which is why it has this weird looking bed.

gmcviking's 1960 Chevrolet Apache Honeyville, UT - 4 It runs and drives good. The body has rust in many places and the cab floor is rusted. This is a "PROJECT" truck. It is Used, Rusted, and Old. Runs and drives good. Has fair tires with three extra wheels with bad tires. There are seven 9-22.5 wheels and two 900-20 wheels one the front.

This is a hard to find classic truck with the right hood for the year. Lighting needs some work, only head and brake lights work. This truck was earning a living up to about 5 years ago, or that is what I was told when I bought it. I have driven it around here and to one show that was only 4 miles away, it runs good and drives good. It only has head lights when the switch is pulled out and I have been told by my wife the brake lights work. She followed my to that show.

gmcviking's 1960 Chevrolet Apache Honeyville, UT - 1 This truck has the inline six hood emblem, but it has been changed out for a Chevrolet 400 small block. The engine sits down low in the engine bay, and back under the front part of the cab. This Viking L60 has the shortest wheelbase offered on any of the big truck, 121 inches, with a back of cab to axle of 60 inches. The GVW of this truck is 19,500 lbs. It's not licensed or inspected. The truck is about the same size front to rear as most pickups, and a bit wider, taller, and heaver.

gmcviking's 1960 Chevrolet Apache Honeyville, UT - 3 The optional rear axle is a GM H-150, 15,000 lbs, 2-speed, offers ratios of 6.40:1 and 8.72:1 controlled by a smooth-acting vacuum shift system. A planetary gearset furnishes the additional torque multiplication with the axle in low range. In high range, the planetary locks up the differential carrier and ring gear. Full-floating axle shafts are induction-hardened.
