I bought this truck going on 4 years ago and its been an absolute beast of a truck - always gotten me where I wanted to go and never let me down. Ive spent a small fortune in upgrades for this truck so this is a definite chance for someone to pick up a super cool truck way under what its worth. People stop me n talk about my truck all the time , its a really nice truck with a lot of potential.
When I bought this truck it was basically stock - the previous owner had literally just put a new transmission in it - he said he used upgraded performance parts and a shift kit - you can tell when you drive it. He used it for a hunting camp truck so its got some light scratches from limbs ect..
its a v8 sbc/ overdrive trans 4 speed. 3.73 gears front and rear
black on tan
stock ride height
power windows
power brakes
power door locks
edelbrock 600 carb -100$
original hard top ( if you want it bring a friend and a trailer its heavy n big ) and custom made soft top convertible ( on now ) - cost right at 1000$
its got 16 x 8 Ultra aluminum rims with 33 12.50 16's on it - look awesome - never let me down - had about a 1000$ in these
pioneer cd player
3 10in subwoofers
2 6.5 speakers
2 3x5 speakers
2 tweeters
2 in dash speakers that were fixing to be replaced by kick panels - they are stock speakers and cant keep up with the rest
2 crossovers- about 600$ in the stereo to date
full size spare tire
full size brand new jack - 75$
4 way
4 core big block radiator
rhino lined the rear
all the guages , lights , accessories work
new windsheild wipers
tune up done last year - plugs , wires, cap - rotor button
trans fluid changed 2 years ago ( the trans only has about 15k on it since rebuild )
all the fluids were checked and topped off last year before hunting season - joints greased ect..
rear brakes fully overhauled 2 years ago - new pads- shoes - wheel cylinders - brake fluid bleed and replaced.
oh and i put 2 new power window motors in it last summer.
and the blower motor was just replaced as well.
Im sure Im forgetting some stuff , trucks not perfect - its an antique mind you - but its a good truck - it does puff some smoke when you first start it but what @200k sbc truck doesnt ? its got 93k on the clock and im pretty sure thats rolled over.
now for 3000$ ( FIRM ON PRICE ) thats what you get - everything mentioned above.Thats a hell of a deal - anyone in the market for one of these trucks can tell you that. These are getting harder to find - especially the Jimmys , and even more so the Sierra Classic models.
The upgrades alone cost more then that.
Now for some good stuff: for 750$ extra ( 3750$ total) I will throw in these parts to make this the absolute deal of a lifetime!
4 meaty buckshot wide mudders on 15 in rims balanced and ready to ride the trails in the time it takes you to change the tires - a ton of tread on these - yes these are 400$ a piece new - i cant rememebr what i had in the rims , but they were new
and aftermarket aluminum dual plane intake - picked up at super chevy last weekend - 45$
new aftermarket full length headers that I bead blasted and coated - bought from jegs for 150$
new 4 shocks good for stock to 3 inch raised - id planned on doing a 2 inch lift - 160$ autozone with my 20$ discount
thanks a bunch - oh and i have a ton more pictures too

I do , in the 4 years Ive owned it Ive put right at 10000 miles on it, almost all highway , from Memphis Tn , to my hunting camp in Locust Bayou Arkansas.
its over 250 miles each way and its made it 3-4 times a year every year since Ive owned it.|
Its been camping with me and all my friends more times then I can count , We always take my truck...
Literally I drive it to cruise in the summer around here maybe once a month , change the oil n top off the fluids around august/september then start making my trips down there n back. At the end of hunting season it doesnt get driven much anymore til summer again. Then i do it all over again. I always start it up n ride it around the block atleast twice a month. I did put a new battery in it 1000 amp / 800 cca duralast gold I forgot to mention in the add.
The 3 last weeks I have driven it everyday since the transmission in my camaro went down. Its been a great truck and no problems at all.
Starts right up , brakes work , never gets hot with the manual fan and 4 core radiator, steering works just fine , tires do get a lil shakey above 70 ( they are all basically mud tires mind you not because of the balance )

ill email them to you right now
i have a 4 year old - hes ridden in the front seat with me since hes been a few months old.
forward and rear facing seats , and now a booster seat.
i have a leg injury which makes it diffecult to get into the back to do a child into a seat, but it would work there too. several times had friends put it back there with him in it.
i do really like the truck, but have 4 right now and am being pressured to get rid of atleast 1. one i just finished , 2 im working on, so this one has to go.
