Thank for your reading my posting carefully. I would like this sale to be a pleasant experience for both of us however, it is impossible to list every detail, mechanical, or body related. The truck is sold as is, not warranty implied, or offered. Please keep in mind that she is 45 years old and as such she may present unknowns at any time. I will make every effort to highlight as much as I know about my truck, but feel free to ask me questions. This is not a showroom condition vehicle with a frame up restoration, but it is a beautiful example of the late 60s, early 70s era, when American pickups were a true reason to be proud of American engineering. She spent all her life in Colorado and wasn’t driven from the late 80s, until I bought it in 2013. I need to make room for a family car, so I need to let her go and I am doing it with a heavy heart, but hopefully she ends up with someone who takes as good a care of her as I did. I do have a clear Colorado title in my name. The overall condition of the truck is great, but again, it is not showroom, regardless of how nice it looks in the pictures. I have close to $20,000 invested in it, not to mention my time. I am not sure how many miles it has on it. The odometer reads 26630, but it only shows 5 digits, so it may have turned once already. As far as the mechanical condition is concerned, I would not hesitate to drive it cross country anytime. I am not aware of any immediate repairs it would need, other than a small oil leak in the back of the engine and a pinion seal. Cold starts require some pumping on the gas, but once warm it starts at first crank. It has a 4speed manual transmission and 4 low and high gears. First gear is a granny gear. The hubs are manually locking. The bed is 8ft. The engine runs great, does not smoke, or burn oil, but visually it is not sexy. I never had it rebuilt as it was in great shape. The shifting is smooth and all gears work fine. The choke is automatic. The truck does not have A/C, but they make aftermarket A/Cs for it if needed. This is a list of parts and Mechanical repairs that were done to the truck: · All leaf springs and shocks are new · New wheels · Tires have about 8000 miles on them · Front breaks are converted to disc. Discs and pads and hoses are new · Drive shaft bearings are replaced · Power steering gear box is new · Steering shaft rebuilt · New alternator · Rebuilt radiator · Break master cylinder rebuilt · 2 New batteries added · New valve cover gaskets · New differential gaskets · New wiper motor · New windshield fluid pump · New thermostat and radiator hoses · Tuned distributor · New spark plugs and fuel filter · New rear brake pads · Rear drums serviced · New e-brake wires · New mufflers and exhaust pipes This is a list of body repairs and parts installed and anything noteworthy about the body of the truck · The truck was painted, it looks nice, but it is not a first class paint job, please do not expect perfection on the paint front. For showroom condition, it would need a sanding and a paint job. · Inside the cab, above the rear window, the body was repaired and there are two holes drilled, probably for a shotgun rack. · Hood has a small penny size dent, · The driver side door has a bulge from the inside, looks like it is from a window crank malfunction · The cab corner panels were repaired, but it is not perfect · Small penny size minor dents on back of the cab, below and above the rear window · The hood had a small dent where the GMC sign is. It was not repaired well and imperfections and a couple of chips are showing around the GMC sign · The paint on the roof was rubbed when I put a truck camper on the truck last year, so the roof needs paint repair. No dents that I am aware of · Cab floor had some rust, it was cut out, patch welded with steel and rust proofed, but it never had a new cab floor installed. The total area of the rust was about 2 sqf. · No active major rust that I am aware of as of today · New windows (front and back, not side) · New door seals · New hood hinges · New tailgate and tailgate hinges · New tail light lenses and signals · All new chrome emblems · Repaired bed bottom, cut out about a 2sqf size area and replaced it with new parts · Bed lined with Line-x · All new chrome trim, grille, lights, molding · New mirrors · Added head rests for safety · Reupholstered bench seat · New carpet · New cab floor sound proofing · New dash · New instrument face panel · New headliner, rearview mirror and visors · New rocker panels · New stereo installed under the dash to leave original intact · The original radio turns on, it worked for a while, but now its all static. It can probably be repaired · All dash lights work · The interior light is currently disconnected from electricity, but otherwise it works. · Frame is solid, no structural rust, or damage based on multiple mechanics’ review. There could be some surface rust here and there, otherwise the bottom is solid.WilWill ship the truck anywhere in the continental US. Estimated cost is $1000-$1500. Timing depends on carrier availability and will not commit to it. Buyer can arrange for pickup, in that case I will ensure coordination with your choice of carrier. I also can drop of to a carrier's location as long as its within 30 miles of 54952.Thahanks for looking and don't hesitate to ask questions. Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE
