Yeah...I like the way they repainted EVERYTHING!

If someone would even waste their time to do such a horrible job with the interior paint like that heaven only knows what they buried in the paint on the outside!

Look at all the overspray inside the cab (pedals, etc) I would be willing to bet there is a TON of filler hiding in that truck. Especially given the low price AND it is a dealer selling it. They advertise it with air conditioning, and yet there isn't even a belt on the compressor.

It's still a big block short bed truck. It's got to be worth something.

Vintage Windmills · 05-26-2011, 10:15 PM

Could still be a steal if a documented BB SWB truck. Between that and the good parts that are there you'd be in good shape, even figuring you'd have to do a frame up. Its probably not too rusty if it was an Idaho truck. Figure he'd sell for 500 to 1000 less than hes asking too.

If I was closer I'd take a look at it but the 1000 in transport fees kills the deal for me....someone should look it over and see how the body is....also take a picture of the vin plate and see if it's a true original bb truck...and the spid to see if it's a true super....

**70cst** · 05-26-2011, 10:41 PM

That is one special paint job but I agree if its not to rusty and if the price is negotiable that could be a real bargin for someone...

1972_K5 · 05-26-2011, 10:40 PM

It's just down the road from me. If someone is really interested I can run by and take a look. Its has been on their lot for over a year.

I'd love to see some pictures of the spid, vin plate on the cab, under the cab, and under the bed/bedsides and in the bed to see what's hiding....

....knowing it's been on the lot over a year either means it was priced WAAY too high and they just dropped the price to sell it....or it's hiding A LOT!

1972_K5 · 05-27-2011, 09:54 PM

It had been at $6995. If I get some time this weekend and it stops dumping buckets I'll see if I can get some pics.

Sorry it took so long but life gets in the way of my best plans. I stopped by on my way home from the gym and there is some good news... it is a BB truck. The bad news is that is all the paint would need redone. Parts of it are flaking off and I don't see any primer under it.....It looks like some patch panels were put in the floor and poorly done. Around here in its condition being a BB SWB I would rate it at around a $3000-3500 truck. I have pics that I will post later.

Is this lot where the truck is for sale close to Rods Auto? I know Rod and he may know some more about this peticular truck ..inquiring minds want to know? LOL

1972_K5 · 06-06-2011, 06:47 PM

Here's the pics

1972_K5 · 06-06-2011, 06:48 PM

And more

VA72C10 · 06-06-2011, 01:48 PM

Thanks for taking a look at it. That explains why it's still there. Good deals are ALMOST always too good to be true

(especially when on a dealer's lot

)

Chevy350V8 · 06-06-2011, 03:19 PM

TTT pics?

Tomahawk30 · 06-09-2011, 12:20 PM

Funny I should find this thread... I just called yesterday and asked the salesman to read me off the SPID sticker. He said that it belongs to the owner of the lot and it was his job to weed out the interested people from the lookers. I can see why he'd have to now... Had to tell him where to find the SPID to start with, and as soon as he said 127 I checked out. I don't really have a problem with them being shortened, but if they don't know it was shorted, or DO know and don't say anything, then I have an issue. Not to mention it looks like it was painted with a can of orange paint and a stick of dynamite.
