TX 1987 Chevy SWB, parts or whole - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Jonboy · 10-16-2010, 04:10 AM

I have decided I need to let my 87 SWB parts truck go. I am putting this in here as parts, but it is a really nice truck; almost too nice to part out. I bought this truck to finish my CCSB project, but have realized it isn't going to happen, for a few reasons. The main one is that I have traded my dually.

Anyhow, the good:
Truck is a two owner truck, the guy I bought it from's family had owned it since 1991. Very straight, rust free Texas truck. The paint is weak, but it is black with a nice charcoal interior. Original dual tank truck (bed has two fuel doors), driprails have been shaved, emblem holes filled, etc. The truck is lowered ~5/6, and the front end was rebuilt about 10K ago, with polyurethane bushings. I say ~ 5/6 bcause it is hard to tell as it sits. Spindles, springs, and flip kit. It also has a fairly new 3" flowmaster exhaust as well.

...and, the bad (depending on how you look at it)- the truck has no engine, trans, fuel tanks, or most of the engine wiring harness. Back glass is gone as well.

This is a perfect truck to do an LS swap on. That thought has crossed my mind as well, but I don't have room for another project. You could also get it going in a weekend with a cheap CL (or equivalent) Suburban donor.

I would like to sell it as it sits for $2000, but have entertained parting it out, if the interest is there. I would also sell it less interior for $1600.

Since this is the parts board, I will put prices out there for the larger stuff.

Clean dual tank short bed- $500

Complete, rust free cab (w/ clean Texas title and bill of sale)
with doors and all wiring, etc (basically unbolted and set off, less interior trim) $500
bare cab- $300

rolling frame with all suspension and drop components $800

hood (I have two) $50

fenders (I have two lefts, one right) $50 each

tight tilt auto shift column $100

aftermarket Dino steering wheel $50

complete charcoal interior $500 (later model matching seat, all plastic, seat belts, headliner, carpet, door panels etc. is in nice shape. dash pad, not so much.)

I realize it is hard to get an idea of all of this without pictures, so I will get some up Monday. The truck is at work, and I'm not. I would really like to sell it as a whole, and will keep it that way to see what interest is. I will not part it out unil there is interest in the bigger parts (cab, bed, etc.). If that's the case, then there will most likely be a lot of smaller parts for sale as well. I may also keep the interior for my truck, as it is really nice. the larger stuff would have to be pickup only, but I may be able to ship smaller parts.

MONTEZ · 10-16-2010, 10:52 AM

Here are a few pics. The truck is pretty straight.

Jonboy · 10-18-2010, 06:00 PM

more pics

Jonboy · 10-18-2010, 06:01 PM

last ones. I didn't see a model number on the steering wheel, so I took a picture. I also have the plastic over the top and back window because there is no glass in it.

im lookin for the piece that connects the air to the drivers side vent from the middle. don't know what exactly its called though!

kinda looks like the piece on the top right here

Jonboy · 10-19-2010, 01:55 PM

I am really hoping this sells complete. I will probably let it ride for another week or so, then look at parting it out. All prices will be + shipping (or preferrably pickup).

baclay9 · 10-20-2010, 08:57 AM

I am interested in the bed... Pm Sent

**ScottH** · 10-20-2010, 10:43 AM

I'd be interested in the dual tank setup if available (less tanks of course).

thanks.
Scott

Ok. Just keep us updated

Effle18 · 10-21-2010, 05:32 PM

I need the drivers side gas door!
Might be interested in the exhaust as well, are there headers? Is it duel exhuast?

SS Delux · 11-03-2010, 11:20 PM

Just Curious what is happening with the truck ? any pics of the suspension ?

Jonboy · 11-04-2010, 09:07 AM

Life is getting in the way a little bit. I haven't had a ton of interest in it whole, so I may pull it apart in a few weeks, and can get pictures then. I am also taking stock of my new '74, to see what I need to keep for it, too. My daughter's birthday is this weekend, so that's out. Maybe in the next couple of weeks.

thepenguin99 · 11-04-2010, 11:31 AM

Is that a sport bumper I spy in the back? If so when you get around to parting it I would like a quote on it complete with brackets and splash guards.

dabels23 · 11-04-2010, 02:35 PM

How's the dash pad?

swb85 · 11-04-2010, 04:34 PM

I'd be interested in the gauge bezel if you part it.
