Re: Craigslist find...the Holy Grail of squares - NOT MINE

A Holy Grail would be a 1973 454, short bed, 4x4 , Trailering Special, Silverado in that condition
or
A 1976 Orange or Black Sport, 454, short bed, 4x4, trailering special, Silverado in that condition
or
A short bed desert fox in any condition with any engine.

That was a clean truck and worth way more then $5,000 in Colorado. It was in no way a Holy Grail truck. It had no special options, nothing special to make it rare other then being in good shape. I would have driven to OK to get it at $5,000. I have $3500 in two parts truck and still need fenders and hood. I will have $20,000 in mine to get it a little nicer then that one. Lot better engine going in mine.
