Re: Critique this truck please

Thanks guys
I needed to hear some voices of reason to calm me down. I'm not in any kind of huge rush to go out and buy something today but I have been keeping an eye on Craig's list and eBay motors for a few months now looking for a 4x4 longed Cheyenne. 2wd Cheyenne's are a lot easier to find so I got real excited when I saw this. I'm in Vegas and this truck is real close up in Utah I don’t know why but it seems like I find tons of cool old trucks up in Washington state up near the Canadian border that’s way too far of a drive for me.

My ultimate plans with whatever truck I end up buying are to do a complete frame off with all new drivetrain including a GM crate ZZ383 and the complete Cheyenne Super package. As you can imagine this will not be cheap I'm still saving to be able to fund this project so that is why I'm in no hurry to go out and buy a truck today. But basically my only requirements with the "project truck" that I end up buying is that it must have a good rust free body and straight frame. I would like however being able to have a decent truck in the meantime while I save up the funds for the restoration.

I emailed the seller and he told me what his reserve is. I don’t know if it would be taboo to share it here but it’s a couple more thousand than what the current bid is right now.

Once again thanks guys for calming me down. If any of you guys out there happen to come across a 4x4 long bed Cheyenne Super for sale within a couple hours of Vegas at a fair price shoot me a PM. My screen name should be easy enough to remember. Just remember that crazy guy that made everybody drink the cool aide.

Thanks guys.
