Re: Big block SWB on eBay
...looks pretty legit, plus he added a tilt...which is nice.
With a little elbow grease, a new trim package, some detailing and a few odds and sods....someone could get themselves a pretty valuable ride depending on where the final pricing ends up. good one to watch....for a lot of reasons. All good Coley

Re: Big block SWB on eBay

Re: Big block SWB on eBay
Low hump so the cab is wrong or the SPID doesn't match the truck
Advertised as a 72 and appears to have 72 alternator bracket Door panels are 71 and probably the doors too Factory buckets from some other truck with 69-70 style upholstery 71 rear view mirror laying on the floor two tone paint is applied incorrectly and poorly, it also appears fresh from the wet sanding dust under the hood Valve covers installed on the wrong sides Bypassed heater core Freshly painted wheels and part of the tires too Was there anything good in those pictures? |

Re: Big block SWB on eBay
High hump- all 4 speeds 2wd & 4wd, big block automatics, I believe all 4wd.
Low hump- small block and 6 2wd with 3 speed manual and automatics. Not sure about 3 speed big blocks. Never seen one.

Re: Big block SWB on eBay
That thing is a mess and a bunch of cobbled together and missing parts, unless he has a vast amount of boxes sitting around

Re: Big block SWB on eBay
This is the seller's first transaction on ebay. I wouldn't bid on it because of this, let alone the problems with the truck itself.
