This truck has been adult owned all its life and well taken care of. I have put a very low reserve price on this truck considering the condition of the vehicle. Don't let the low Buy It Now price fool you...this is a very nice short box Chevy. I purchased this truck about 10 months ago and have put about 3000 easy miles on it. Beautiful detail job has just completed. Previous owner (he owned this truck for 30 years and was VERY attached to this truck) treated this truck with kid gloves. He had plans to pull a trailer (never did) and had the engine (350ci) pulled at about 100,000 miles and professionally rebuilt at the 4x4 Shop in Caldwell, Id (4x4shopidaho.com). During the rebuild they installed a mild RV cam. They also had the transmission rebuilt with a shift kit added. Approximately 30,000 miles on both. The truck has trailer brakes, hidden hitch (behind the license plate), new headers and dual flowmaster exhaust (nice rumble), eldebrock manifold (comes with the stock manifold), new master cylinder, power steering pump, battery, rear axels & bearings, alternator, quadrajet carburetor, heater core, heater fan, dual tanks, drivelines and u-joints, shocks, truck has been undercoated, spray in bed liner with thick rubber mat, new brakes, rebuilt front end, converted from full time 4x4 to locking Warn hubs, color matched canopy and wheels, matching spare, new carpet, nice dash, all glass is good.Truck starts, sounds and runs great and travels down the freeway at 65mph with no problem. 4x4 works as it should. Steering is tight and truck stops straight when braking. The truck comes with extras...It has an extra full set of 4 matching BF Goodrich All Terrain TA tires (the same tires that are on the truck already) mounted on professionally color matched mag wheels (I included a picture of one of them)...the tires have about 50 % tread(just a guess, could be more). The last owner was kind of ocd about his truck...he would change the brakes of the truck when there was still way more than 50% left; same with filters and just about everything that was replaceable. I have spare starters, alternators, wiper motors/blades, seat belt sets, bug visor for the hood(never installed), hubs, brakes, filters, light bulbs, headlights and more...boxes of stuff,,,a lot is new, some is "lightly" used... it all goes with the truck. We are retiring to the Oregon coast soon, where I hope to never have to deal with snow again, and have no need of a truck of this caliber. As to what is wrong with the truck I will tell you all I know...the headliner is all there and in good condition but is sagging a bit...the rear bumper has a slight tweak in it (if you look close in the pictures you can see it)...there is a small spot of surface rust behind each rear wheel (the pictures of the spots were taken before the truck was detailed, hence the difference in picture quality. I have not taken the seat cover off since he installed it so well, so I can not describe the condition of the seat. I live about 30 miles west of Boise, Id. in the town of Marsing. Upon receipt of full payment for the truck I would be willing to deliver the vehicle to the shipper/agent of your choice(within 30 miles). I would also be willing to deliver the truck to the Boise airport and complete the transaction at a local bank should you decide to fly in and drive the truck home. Upon completion of the auction I would expect a nonrefundable cashiers check/post office money order for 10% of the purchase price within 7 days and completion of the purchase within two weeks. My name is Rick and I have tried to show and describe the truck to the best of my abilities. If you need any further pictures or descriptions please don't hesitate to call...208-866-1121
