NOT MINE : My co-worker is selling his father son project (son lost interest). He has owned the truck for over 20 years and has invested a lot of money into this project. It is currently some what taken apart. It was an original small block 4 speed truck, but has all the original parts to make it a 400 small block, 400 auto.

Newly professionally rebuilt small block 400. the motor was built by a local machinist for his own family. The motor has been broken in (900 miles) It has a low mid range cam and comes with the engine stand that it is on.

Turbo 400 transmission removed from a 72 3/4t with 75,000 original miles on it. It has been serviced and cleaned ready for installation.

The front suspension has been converted to a 72 power disk brakes by a local shop. All the tierod ends, bushings, idler arm, brakes, coil springs and shocks are all NEW.

The rear suspension has the original 4:11 rear end, with NEW coil springs and NEW shocks.

The core support has been completely restored and painted, front fenders have been prepared for paint. The front chrome bumper shown in the picture is the original bumper. The hood is rust free, staright and original faded paint. The front inner fenders have been restored with a thick textured product.

The truck still has the original steering column, but comes with the correct automatic column.

The truck in general is very straight and comes with a lot of nice parts, some NOS parts, some very nice clean original used parts. The rockers have typical rust and would need to be replaced before paint. Don't quote me, but I think only one cab support needs to be replaced. The tires almost new as well. I'm sure I forgot some things.

He is NOT interested in parting this out. He wants to sell it complete and wants it gone. He has invested thousands of dollars into this truck and realizes in the current state it is not worth that, but is asking only $1000. He paid a lot more than that just for the motor!

The truck is located in Arlington, WA. If you are interested in the truck and want to call him, please call him directly on his cell 425-359-3639 NO CALLS AFTER 8:00PM PACIFIC TIME PLEASE!!!!!!!!!

If you post here or contact me (Dan72cst) then I will try and get the questions answered, but there will be a time delay, because I will have to ask him.
