Wiw- 75 swb 454

WIW- guys
factory 454 SWB, 2WD of course.
I don’t like the interior of the 75’s much but at least it’s all in good shape for a 75. new carpet, headliner and dash cap. truck is NOT original colors on repaint or interior. Repaint is a good darker red not the original year org/red. Also has a red interior. Facctory buckets (reupholsterd) & console. Truck is from dry state and in GREAT shape underneath. No patch work other than cab corners.
No great options cause none were available in 75. except it does have working A/C and PS- PB with bucket seats though on top of the First year Silverado trim. The body AND red paint is a strong 7 or 8 of 10 , they didn’t take all the little factory ripples out. Matching tonneau cover. ALL new chrome side trim but they didn’t tu-tone it. Rear roll pan. Dropped only 2” ,(why put it back on then, but ? ) , new front bumper.new fender emblems and silverado tailgate band.
Engine runs well with no noise or smoke. No history at all but I torture tested it on ride and it runs well. Shows 120K but musta been out by now. Engine has ALL factory equip including EGR valve. Does have headers and full 3” exhaust.
It has a few quirks that would not cost much to fix but it is an original 454 truck that is not patched or hacked up. It drives TIGHT and no wind whistles at 60MPH. (how?. Lol).
Keep in mind it’s this nice on the East coast where ANY nice, early SWB is not exactly growing on trees. I don’t think these trucks are 5 digit yet, But ???
Thanx , crossy
