es67chevy · 09-21-2009, 08:35 AM

Looks great!!

I don't see it posted anywhere, but sorry if I missed it. What wheels are those and do you know the backspacing and width on the rears?

gunkis84 · 09-21-2009, 02:58 PM

the wheels are coys 18/20 the they are 8" wide on front and 10" on rear.. i dont know the backspacing bc i bought these from a 69 chevy short, but he has the same setup.. so the answer i probably on his build thanks

gunkis84 · 09-21-2009, 02:59 PM

ok ok.. so here come the gut wrench.. this truck is for sale

due to the not so sweet housing market i need to liquidate some things to keep my business in order.. soo im posting it in the for sale section.. dang!! i hate this

83Silverado · 09-21-2009, 09:03 PM

Wow can't believe your selling it! I almost tried to buy it before you got it. But you have to do what you have to do. I'd almost buy this from you but im lacking some of the money your asking so. Def would have built it exactly like you have. Black/red

So what happened with the guy interested? He the one that bid the reserve?

es67chevy · 12-30-2009, 10:09 PM

Man, that hurts to see it go for that. I wish I would have come across a deal this good before I bought mine. I'm in for way over that and mine's still in pieces. Ugh!!!

Congrats on the sale! Sorry to see you let it go. Hopefully another nice current or future board member got it.

72BlckButy · 12-31-2009, 04:07 PM

Sorry to see you have to sell the truck, but here's to the next one.

Curious... what did the truck sell for? I can't access Ebay from work.

VA72C10 · 12-31-2009, 04:14 PM

Someone stole it

for 15K....his reserve

72BlckButy · 12-31-2009, 04:23 PM

(Thanks VA72C10)

That was a steal for that truck. Sorry/Glad to see you sold the truck...

royo · 12-31-2009, 08:28 PM

2 Houses and a baby. Will put any projects on hold. yep!

83Silverado · 02-15-2010, 05:24 PM

Dang! I was still a little off from having $15k but def would have loved to have it. KILLER truck! I'm about to get me a '71 that's really nice. Nice restored truck that just needs that last few small here and there items...so well see

gunkis84 · 05-28-2011, 04:51 PM

arg.. here i am. back on this site trying to sell a truck for a friend of mine. looking at my old truck wishing i could have kept it..

whitesilvy · 07-09-2012, 01:47 PM

I know it's an old thread but I just went thru the whole thread and what a shock at the end that you had to sell it, that sucks

gunkis84 · 07-09-2012, 02:16 PM

I know. It kills me still that I had to sell. Things with business are looking quite good again, so hopefully someday I'll be able to buy this truck back. Talked to the new owner about 6 months ago, and he said he finished the interior, relocated the gas tank, beefed up the tranny, put power windows, and a/c in the truck., he said he'd sell (I didn't dare ask the price) lol
