1982' question. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

C/10 King · 04-21-2012, 03:34 PM

I need a little bit of schooling guys, I'm mostly a 67-72 truck person, but I came across this clean rust free shortbed for sale today by the original owner, and I'm wondering what kinda deal this is......If this is a run away from it deal

, good deal, great deal or smokin deal? I thought it sounded pretty good myself, A stock 1982' 305/700r4 with w/all the maintenance records since day 1, nice body w/factory paint, recently smogged, plus this thing started on the first click, only thing is the AC/heater does not work-$2,000 OBO, Please look at the photo's and give me some feedback (Positive or negative) Thanks!

Mikec10 · 04-21-2012, 03:45 PM

Sounds like a great deal man, looks pretty good too.

grs · 04-21-2012, 03:52 PM

I think the body alone is worth the asking price.

69GMC910 · 04-21-2012, 07:19 PM

If your buying it to flip offer less, if your keeping it

grab it quick!!

J Knight · 04-21-2012, 07:59 PM

A solid, straght, rust free, has all the pieces, auto/wOD, V8, and runs.......2g sound good to me.

sean1969c10 · 04-21-2012, 08:58 PM

Sounds pretty good, if that is the original transmission, the early 700r4's were on the weak side. If it's working good, I wouldn't let that keep me from buying, just good info to know for the future. Good luck!!

I may be wrong, but the 700r4's did not come out till 96-87 so I'm sure this is something someone changed. My son just sold a 73 K10 with dents and rust all primered, so 2k sounds pretty good.

C/10 King · 04-21-2012, 09:22 PM

Thanks for the input guys!!!!

I remember when the OD trans. came out in the early 80s' and you're exactly right they where junk.

Once they got the bugs out they were fantastic!

Well they called me and said they really to accept $1,500.

sean1969c10 · 04-21-2012, 09:24 PM

Wrecked1982 · 04-21-2012, 09:38 PM

Smoking deal Rene. Being its a 73-87 in your area it might not flip as easy as your past deals, but it will clean up and turn for 2500+ with the usual detail and add ons.

The 4 speed automatic/overdrive was an option in 1982 on C10's with V8 engines.

The early transmissions had a weak sprag if I recall correctly. Someone else will know better about this.

Buy it!

legendman · 04-23-2012, 03:01 PM

You own that thing yet?
On the east coast nice rust free stuff is tough to come by.

motornut · 04-23-2012, 04:36 PM

2000 it would be in my laneway by now lol
1500..... it would have the new rims too lol

shawno72 · 04-23-2012, 08:28 PM
