I bought this to amuse myself 2 years ago. My company is relocating me to Texas and this is not coming with me. Why? No A/C, 4.11 gears, short box. Heck, I don't even need 4x4 down there. It's a much better truck for New England with its low gears and short box than it is for Houston. This truck features:Hey, look at that, original floors. If you decode the VIN, you'll see it was built in San Jose. The guy I bought it from said he bought it from a guy who imported it from out west in 2010. The truck was used on a vineyard for most of its life apparently, which is why the box isn't beat up.351M that you'll want to replace with a 400 before too long, as this one is getting noisy. $1700 reman, replace with Tim Meyer, Inc. pistons and cams and should make 350hp at the wheels. Easy, but I'm out of time.Hooker headers/exhaust4.11 gearsFunctional dual gas-tank setupNP435 transmissionNP205Holley 4150 with automatic chokeThings I have done to it:New headsNew aluminum radiator.New water pump.New rotors/calipers/padsNew shoesNew rubber brake linesNew e-brake lineEntire ignition system replaced (it would stall intermittently, turned out the distributor connector was cracked and leaking)New Distributor connector from a ToyotaNew windshield washerRemoved A/CNew heater coreParts I have yet to install:Brake proportioning valveTwo new drumsExtra exhaust partsHolley rebuild kitClutch for fan (don't have the right fan)The truck runs and drives great, but the engine starts to make noise once it's warmed up. I never worry driving it around town, pulling my boat, etc., but it's going to need an engine at some point. Some surface rust is starting to show - if you care about the truck I wouldn't wait too long before it gets a respray. It made it 39 years, don't make the 40th year its last!On May-12-16 at 15:06:51 PDT, seller added the following information: On sale locally, reserve the right to end auction if it sells.On May-13-16 at 11:50:59 PDT, seller added the following information: I think that last update was more confusing than helpful. At this point I am not going to sell the truck if it sells on eBay, provided the buyer meets the standard payment obligations and is not a deadbeat.
