1969 396 Camper Special - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have a friend who's dad has a 69 396/325 GMC Camper Special I haven't seen yet. He says the body is decent. However the engine hasn't been cranked in 6 years, but the engine only has 10K on it after a rebuild. He thinks it has 235 HP with a 400 turbo trans, does this sound correct for this truck. Would rear would it have? Posi maybe? I am thinking of buying it for the drive train for my 71 Chevy C10 if the price is right, what do you think would be a good offer to make for it. Maybe I could piece out some of the parts to offset some of the investment. Comments? Suggestions? Thanks.
