Local Craig's list, E-bay, or the classified ads here, is about all anyone can tell you here, because you are not permitted to actually ask the members for what they have to sell.

Copied from the rules:
Quote:
XIV. As of October 15th 2005 subscribing members will be the only ones permitted to post for sale and want to buy ads on any classified section of this site. All other rules of buying and selling still apply. 67-72chevytrucks.com, its administrators or staff are not responsible for any transactions on or off the forums. We will work hard to ensure you a smooth transaction, and help in the event you may need it, but all for sale and trade areas are buyer beware. Any persons who have misrepresented an item, lie about an item, fail to deliver, or are in violation of any of the rules will forfeit there subscription fees and be banned from 67-72chevytrucks.com

Re: howdy ya'll

Wow sorry to hear you had to seel the truck before getting it back drivable. I liked how yours had the sleeper on it too. My advice would be to hold out save up and find what u really want. I went threw aq few before getting the 84. It is worth the road trip to not have to deal with the rust bug. Local is best but sometimes you just can't find what you want local and for the right price.

Also these trucks because of how big they are and the gas millage of the 454 and the weight it pulls often sell for good prices.

Good luck with the job and future search.

Did the old dually find a good home?
