I bought this truck a few months ago to hold me over until my 78 Trans Am is finished, plus I just love old beater trucks!! Has great character and nice patina IMO. Since I have had it I put the 20x8 and 20x10 BOSS 338 wheels on it, 2.5" drop spindles with 1 coil cut up front, and axle flip kit in back (it is a leaf spring truck, not coil). New shocks (correct for lowering) and all new bushings in the leaf springs. Also did a C notch kit that I welded in. I put new turbo mufflers (didn't want it to be loud), but it could really use new pipe from manifolds to mufflers. Body wise, it needs a cab corner on the passenger side, other than that I think the truck is perfect. Every light works and every gauge works except the Speedometer (mechanical still). Has a small tach mounted to the steering wheel. Interior is descent, but for a few hundred, you could have some new panels and a seat cover.
Truck rides and drives like a dream. It is a BLAST to drive and don't have to worry about it! It cruises down the interstate at 80 mph like a later model truck. Steering is tight and stops like it should.
The biggest thing about the truck is it has Mega Squirt's MS3 Pro stand alone computer, harness and transmission controller!! This alone retails for around $2600.
I hate to sell this (killing me to list), but I have my car back home now and seeing it like it is, is killing me. So in order to finish it, this truck has to go.
$9,900
