1982 Shortwide Project - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Some of you have probably seen my other projects on here (68 shortbox and 82 crewcab shortbox build ups). Well as much as I dont need another project on my plate right now I couldnt pass this thing up. Found it parked on the side of the highway on my way back down from picking up a car in Cheyenne Wyoming and bought it rigth there and had my girlfriend drive it home with me.

1982 shortwide 2wd fresh 400 .30 over, comp cams, edelbrock carb, 2500 stall, shift kit, 3.73 posi, new radiator, new calipers and rotors, a/c cab, long story short he wanted $2500, I gave $1700 and had to have it.

On top of everything drivetrain wise being brand spankin new the body is suprisingly straight, sits in original paint with no visible rust and a incredibly straight hood, bedsides, bedrails, tailgate, etc. And two extra spare shortwide bedsides sitting in the bed. If anyone needs these let me know I'll probably sell them as I cannot see me needing them as the ones on are fine.

Sweet looking find, and pretty damn good steal for what you paid for it.
