My Truck for sale . . . - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

jmil1974 · 02-25-2003, 11:31 PM

Well, it's time to reprioritize. Being unemployed has taken its toll. I really don't want to but family is more important so here goes:
Shirley is for sale. Here's a few pics and I have video I can email of running, idling, driving, etc. I can also email additional pics as desired. I have owned Shirley since 1989, she was painted and upholstered in 1990. The 350 and 3 on the tree were swapped for a new 350/th350 in 1992. She was wrecked and put back together with good parts, new paint in 1996. I just finished putting in a new 300HP 350 longblock,
power disc conversion,
new rear brakes,
rebuilt radiator,
$500 Magnaflow exhaust,
receiver hitch,
and a HD front sway bar.
I have receipts for almost $2000 since November alone. Other stuff:
COLD under dash A/C works great.
3.07 open rear
75k miles on tranny
all new fluids

Stuff she needs:
dash pad
Autometer tach quit working (bad ground?)
Bed wood
Left front parking light no workie, but the turn signals do
PS pump squeals, it needs to be shimmed, doesn't line up straight
Could probably use a carb kit and a dual plane intake to help MPG
New Booster/MC, have to add fluid to front every 2 weeks or so(have receipts for this so it would be free)

The body is pretty darn straight and the paint looks nice, but nor nearly perfect.
RUST: minor (IMO)
cab corners - none
rockers: driver -none, pass.- 1 bubble
doors - both lowers have bubbles
roof by mirror - some bubbles

She's now very reliable and runs right. Drive her away as is or great place to take over project.

PRICE:
$3800 OBO, cash talks
I'm willing to deal, I need to sell her but I will not be low-balled or corn-holed. I'm willing to listen to cash offers if reasonable and JUSTIFIED.

I'll be glad to provide pics and there are a number of Houston members for independent verification. I have lots of receipts and most moving parts (incl. front suspension) have been replaced in the last 2 or 3 years.

PM or email me if seriously interested and I'll give ya my phone number and send more pics and video.

Thanks,
Jason

EDIT: NEW PRICE
$3800

Can't help. But TTT. Sorry to hear about the unfortunate times. Good luck.

mtdave2 · 02-27-2003, 05:10 PM

ever notice that when you are looking for a truck, you cant get anyone to sell, or find anything worth buying. then, when you dont need a truck, you run into great deals like this.... lol

one the other side, when you dont have to sell, you have people ask if its for sale, when you need to sell,,,nota

jmil1974 · 02-28-2003, 11:04 PM

true, true. Anyone got some cash burning a hole in their pocket?

jmil1974 · 03-04-2003, 02:36 AM

Well Dave, I know you're kidding and I know you're right.

All I can do is make the best of what's in front of me and hope the Big Guy helps some good things find themselves in front of me. Gotta make the tough calls sometimes though . . .
