MILK MONEY

Built for a Nebraska Dairy Farmer, This Single Cab Was Stretched For Twice The Price - And Now It's For Sale.

July 31, 2025 - In 1969, if you wanted a crew cab Chevrolet truck, you couldn’t just walk onto a lot and pick one up. GM didn’t build them that way. What you could do was order a brand-new C20 or K20 from the factory, then pay double the price to have it converted by Scott-Bilt — a coachbuilder in Oklahoma City known for stretching frames, adding full rear doors, and building rigs that didn’t exist off the rack.


That’s exactly what one dairy farmer from Gothenburg, Nebraska, did. Through Larson Motors, he placed an up-front order for a 1969 Chevrolet K20 4x4, then commissioned the full Scott-Bilt crew cab treatment. Original cost: $3,650 for the truck, another $4,000 for the conversion. That was a lot of milk jugs.

Unlike most Scott-Bilt rigs — which typically went to government or railroad fleets and were almost always 2WD — we believe this one was ordered 4WD. It’s believed to be one of just 15 crew cab 4x4s ever built that way.

Over the years of work the rear seat was pulled out to haul more milk. Then when it was sold it picked up the nickname adopted by the Nebraska locals - they called it Big Ugly, and for good reason.



QUICK SPEC HIT


  • 1969 Chevrolet K20 Scott-Bilt Crew Cab 4x4

  • Believed to be one of ~15 4WD Scott-Bilt crew cabs ever built

  • 350ci V8 crate engine, 4-speed manual, dual-range transfer case

  • Frame-off restored by Wooldridge crew in Spring Hill, TN


After a few owners and a couple auction stops, the truck landed in Spring Hill, Tennessee, where hot rod specialists Bradley and Wade Wooldridge took it down to bare frame and built it back up with their crew: Ricky Clanton, Kenny Baltimore, and James Bogle. Every panel was replaced using fresh steel from Truck Haven in Unionville. The truck got a frame-off restoration, new wood bed, fresh orange and white paint, and a full black interior with utility buckets, a restored rear bench, and custom console.


Under the hood: a rebuilt 350ci V8, 4-speed manual trans, and dual-range transfer case. The drivetrain has less than 3,800 miles on it since the rebuild.


It’s a rare truck with a wild backstory — and now, it’s back on the market. Listed out of Boca Raton, Florida and live on BAT, Big Ugly’s got one more chapter to write. Might as well be yours.
