this year ...

cool truck, cool price.

Pyrotechnic · 01-23-2010, 12:42 PM

I've always liked those stripped down base model trucks. So simple. I'd swap in a Camaro T5 and add a turbocharger. For a clean little SWB that's priced right too.

**N2TRUX** · 01-23-2010, 01:01 PM

That's one you wouldn't mind cutting up and laying it on the deck.

thump16 · 01-23-2010, 04:20 PM

I was thinking more of a 6 speed ls2 combo.

dan76 · 01-23-2010, 07:45 PM

This is a deal for the east coast guys looking for fairly priced SWB that appears to be rust-free.

MR .T · 01-23-2010, 07:54 PM

If I could find this in canada for this price id have it in my driveway by the end of the day. Im so jealous right now.

I have one that is 55k miles. My crap detector is going off when someone says thay had to rebuild the motor with that low of miles. BTW... it's not for sale I'm still buying parts.

Scootin 81 C20 · 01-23-2010, 10:20 PM

That truck would be great for me. Anybody that buys it want to trade?

**old Rusty C10** · 01-23-2010, 11:56 PM

If i decided that it would be a fun thing to fool with is anyone close enough to look at it for me?

Thump evidently is right around the corner from it...I'd go check it out, but I just checked and it's 6 hours away from me...

I am skeptical of the miles. The one picture that shows the tailgate shows it worn pretty good. The price is decent even if its 257,000 miles.

I'll bet the owner allowed the engine to overheat or ran it out of oil and had it rebuilt.

thump16 · 01-24-2010, 12:43 PM

on the phone with him now. Trying to get more info. He's a few hours from me but it's been on my mind. We'll see.

thump16 · 01-24-2010, 12:53 PM

Just got off the phone with him. He wants $1200.00 cash guys. It is a working and driving truck. He's trying to finance his 92 chevy truck build. His name is Chris.

**old Rusty C10** · 01-24-2010, 01:06 PM

id wanna know what the underside is like cab mounts.. rockers inner and outer and corners.. would i be able to get into it and drive back to NY with it? does it eat oil? clutch and brake condition? can i get a temporary tag from GA DMV to drive it with?
also i have to make sure that this deal that im selling another car goes through ( and the wife is cool with taking the train to GA to do this and driving back) before i definately buy this

thump16 · 01-24-2010, 01:44 PM

Old rusty C10. Give him a call(his number is at the top of the ebay ad). I would be willing to keep it here at the house and look it over for you and hook you up with any minor maintenance to get you back up the road(My in-laws are from upstate New York). He is a mechanic by trade and works on the local police dept fleet of vehicles. Columbus GA is a couple of hours from me.

Just got off the phone with him. He said it's pretty solid and would make the trip back to New York with 0 problems.
He said there is a small rust hole on the drivers side floor and a few bubbles on hood. New clutch. If i didn't have my 84, I would be all over this deal.

**old Rusty C10** · 01-24-2010, 04:49 PM

lol hurdle #1 is cleared wife says i can have it if i want it.... now lets see if the car sells this week and i can call the guy
