72 SWB Fleetside Super Cheyene F/S TEXAS - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

dukes72 · 09-21-2004, 05:54 PM

I am selling my 72 shortbed. The truck would be a great truck to restore or just drive as I have over the last year. The only rust on the truck is the rockers. I have the panels, just never got around to repairing them. The truck straight and has been stripped down to metal, then E-poxy primed, then sprayed flat black. It has the following:
2.5 drop spindles, mcgaughy's
cut coils up front
5" drop in the back.
Has a total of about 4/5 drop and the stance looks killer

Gm Ralleys with Hotrod trim rings and flat police cap. 15x8, 275/60 in rear
and 15x7 w. 235/70 in the front good tread all around

Summit 350 crate motor with about 40,000 on it. I had to replace the heads about 10000 miles ago. They were cracked when I bought the truck. I just put on some used stock heads. The trucks runs great. The bores were in great shape and still had the hone marks with no ridge. It is bored .030 over.
Has the following on the engine:
edelbrock performer rpm
Headers, with 50 series flows that dump out before the axle
holley 600 vac sec,
accel ignition
Small RV cam, not sure of the grind

Turbo 350
Factory 12 bolt 3.73 posi

Interior:
All the paint has been stripped and then repainted with PPG single stage gloss black. Recovered the door panels with grey tweed with black vinyl inserts.
It is an AC truck, however, everything is missing under the hood. The parts all seem to be there under the dash though.

It has power disc brakes and Power Steering
I also added a sway bar to the front with Poly bushings.

I am now asking $4250.00, MUST SELL!!! Edited from $5000.00

I will be posting pics on a webpage tonight as soon as I can get it posted.
The link will be:

Please email me at jonathansduke@yahoo.com with any questions.
The truck is located in NW Austin, TX

Where did you get your wheels and what are the backspacing on them? I really like the look of those. If you decide you want to off the wheels/tires let me know. Oh yeah and TTT.

thanks, RJ

dukes72 · 10-16-2004, 12:07 PM

A little sanding and priming and it can be any color you want. I am selling the truck so I can fix the ls-1 in my 68. it lost oil pressure and destroyed the motor. Here's a link to a video of it running if anyone is interested
