Possible Shop Truck candidate 1970 SWB on CL
Went and looked at this one yesterday http://charlotte.craigslist.org/cto/1414965279.html
Thought it looked really good in the picture..... Unfortunately, he is WAY over priced for what's there....front clip was in pretty good shape, pass door was dented pretty good, typical rust in the rockers, the interior floor looked okay, but saw a little rust at the pass kick panel/ floor, doors were rusted on the bottoms, bottom of the cab looked good (floor supports all in tact, innner rocker good too), windshield rust in pass upper corner, bed was in good shape, tailgate straight but rusted out in the inside bottom, the frame looked really good, he is in the racing industry so has refreshed the old 350 with rebuilt heads and new gaskets, rebuilt tranny, grill had a pretty good dent on the driver side in the middle, had original AM/FM Push button radio, original paint, put in a 4.11 posi rear end with detroit locker, SPID had nothing special, but a pin stripe option.....I thought that was cool....never seen it in person He said a guy offered him $4500 for it, but it said no way, I got more than that in it....He said if he can't get $6k for it, it'll sit, outside!!! (he's got a small garage)....Too bad, b/c I thought this would be a perfect candidate for a shop truck....drop this bad boy, add some bigger wheels, and roll.....

Re: Possible Shop Truck candidate 1970 SWB on CL
Not a bad looking truck. Depending on how bad the rust and dent is I think I could see it going for 6. Of course I am a little swayed since I like to only buy original factory paint trucks.

Always here for moral support.
Seriously though, it's a pretty sweet looking truck, you'll like it.

Re: Possible Shop Truck candidate 1970 SWB on CL
Yeah Nate....I had the pic ready to post, but forgot we couldn't post pics...that's why I posted the CL posting.....I think $3k is more what it's worth....and if that was the price, I believe I would of had a MAD wife!!!....

Re: Possible Shop Truck candidate 1970 SWB on CL
What a bummer... after I was able to see the pic, if it didn't have the rust issues, I would have bought it for $6k!
That thing would make one killer shop truck.

Re: Possible Shop Truck candidate 1970 SWB on CL
It really does have some really cool patina on it too....
Kinda reminds me of n2billet's 'Hazel's sister' build
