Due to a deadbeat "0" feedback bidder, Here we have up for bids, again, a 1997 Chevy K3500 4x4 crew cab dually. This truck is RUST FREE and has only122K miles on it. It runs and drives great and the body is very straight. The paint could use some work if you want perfection, but this truck was built to work! There is a reciever hitch out back and brake controller already installed under the dash. It has the tow package.(Oil coolers) We have given it an oil change and a detail. There is no sign of collision damage anywhere. This truck has the 7.4 Vortec and the 4L80E transmission. The engine fires up with no unusual noises or smoke. There is no check engine light on. The transmission shifts through all the gears including overdrive lockup. The transfer case operates through 4x4 high and low range fine. This truck has the 14 bolt full floater dually rear axle with (G80) limited slip option. The body is really straight. The bed foor is unbelieveably straight. As already stated, the paint clearcoat is peeling in several places. The tires are in fair condition, they will get you through another year or so. The air conditioning and heat work well. The A.C. compressor is NEW. The radio works good. The power windows go up and down. Not all the electric door locks function from the switch, (not sure why). The seats are nice, they're power and not torn up. It has tilt steering. The windshield is perfect. The wipers work good. The brakes stop good. The headlights are new, (the old ones were cloudy). The muffler is NEW. It just got a NEW idler arm and NEW pitman arm. (The steering is now tight) All in all, it's a really neat older body style truck that has the potential of being a very nice head turner with a little time and love. With any used vehicle, it is nearly impossible to cover every last square inch in detail with this brief description. If there is something important to you that has not been covered, PLEASE ASK questions and I will try to get you the answer A.S.A.P. We have maintained a 100% positive feedback here on Ebay since 2001. We are not trying or wanting to hide anything and want you to know what it is that you are bidding on. This is a used vehicle being offered by a licensed Colorado dealer. All used vehicles are sold As-is / No warranty. Any applicable tax, title, and registration costs are not included in the sales price. There are no additional D&H fees added. A Free 60 day temporary licence tag is provided. The final bid is the sales price. There will be no set asides, allowances, or haggling after the auctions end. This vehicle is also offered for sale off our lot locally, for $5500, so we reserve the right to end the auction early if obviously necessary. We have also added a "buy it now" button here on this listing for That amount if you would simply wish to purchase this vehicle outright rather than going through the auction process. I believe you will find our price hard to beat with ANY comparable mileage/year Chevy Crew cab, 4x4 truck. Please contact me at (970)214-0979 for any questions not already answered here. The "buy it now" button requires an immediate deposit of $500 thru Paypal. Full payment is due within 3 days. We can safely store this vehicle for free for up to 3 weeks (or even longer) after full payment has been recieved. Just in case anyone is curious, KBB "trade in" value on this truck is $5400. Private Party value in "Good" condition is $7,265. Private party "Fair" condition is $6640. Dealer suggested "retail" is $ 8850.00 Who are we and how can we be contacted? We are C&J Auto Sales located at 288 Garfield Ave., Loveland Co. 80537. We are a small family owned business that has been selling to the public for approx 9 years. My wife and I wholesaled for several years before that. My name is Chris and my phone # is (970) 214-0979. I would say the best way to contact me (if you have a specific question about a vehicle) is through Ebay "ask seller a question" , as I am rarely standing right next to a vehicle that you may be interested in.(ready to give an on the spot description). I check my email often, and will give you an answer back ASAP. Shipping. All shipping costs and arrangements are the buyer's responsibility. We will gladly assist the shipping company of your choice. Obviously, the vehicle will not leave our possession until full payment has CLEARED. We can deliver the vehicle to a shipping terminal within 50 miles for an additional fee (to cover time and expenses). Vehicles need to be picked up within 3 weeks of auction end unless previous arrangements have been made. You are more than welcome to pick up the vehicle in person, straight off the lot. If you prefer to fly in/ drive home, the airport you would be arriving at would be Denver International Airport (D.I.A.) There is a very inexpensive shuttle going north into Loveland for only $25. Check out www.supershuttle.com/en/DENAirportShuttleFortCollins.html I would be happy to pick you up for free from that I-25 & HWY 34 dropoff point. Please contact me ahead of time to make sure our schedules do not conflict. Inspections. I highly encourage inspections on all vehicles offered, either in person, or by a hired professional. The vehicle will be made available for inspection by appointment. If you decide to forego the inspection offered, there is no reason you should be unhappy about anything after the auction has ended. Most vehicles are generally purchased by us at dealer only auctions for the sole purpose of resale. We sell these vehicles at FAR below any retail prices. This gives you room for any repairs that you see fit. They have not undergone ANY type of inspections/ or tests for ANYTHING. This includes emmissions and safety inspections. Again, you are buying all used vehicles AS-IS/NO Warranty. If you do not agree to these conditions, please do not bid on the vehicle. All descriptions given are a general observation based on a very limited contact with the vehicles. My definition of nice may not be the same as someone elses. It's just a matter of opinion. I will say, however, we have been able to maintain a 100% positive feedback rating here on Ebay which doesn't happen by accident or by trying to swindle people. I buy as well as sell on here and don't like giving or getting surprises. I do not offer any vehicle on here that I have not personally driven and that I believe would be sound enough for a cross country trip. Unfortuanately, I do not have a crystal ball and cannot predict when something might fail. One thing I've learned for sure in this busines: .... Anything mechanical can break down at any moment. You should expect to do some type of basic scheduled maintenance or repairs to any USED vehicle listed on here or for that matter, ....anywhere. Titles. All vehicles that we purchase and offer for resale have clear Title, in our possesion. We do NOT deal in any vehicles with salvage title histories, period. The State of Colorado automatically exempts the recorded mileage on the title for any vehicle over ten years old, and over 100,000 miles. Therefore, on these vehicles, the titles will simply have a "0" indicated for odometer reading. That doesn't indicate that the mileage is unknown, or has been tampered with. It simply means they are no longer keeping track of mileage after that. Please keep in mind mileage may increase slightly from local customers inspecting and taking test drives. Please note You have to have a USA drivers licence to purchase a vehicle. Preparing, listing, and managing these online auctions costs real time and money. Please have all your financing in place before bidding. We are selling the above vehicle outright. We are not offering financing or accepting any trades on the vehicle. Please do not contact me concerning reserves on vehicles listed. Figure out what the vehicle is worth to you, and bid up to that amount. These auctions are a significant part of our family's livelihood and we rely on it's results to make ends meet. For that reason, the auction is taken VERY seriously. Please do not bid if you are unable to complete the transaction for ANY reason. This includes the deposit required within 24 hours of auctions end. You must be at least 18 years of age and possess a valid USA drivers licence to purchase vehicle. If you are new to Ebay and have less than 5 previous transactions completed, or have less than a 95% positive feedback rating, you MUST contact me before placing a bid or it will be cancelled and blocked as soon as I see it. Please don't take this the wrong way, I realize everyone starts out here on Ebay as a Zero feedback member. I would love to talk to you in person if you have any questions about bidding on/ buying our vehicle. Please feel free to contact me if you are truly interested in purchasing. This ensures that I am dealing with a serious bidder/buyer and keeps the auction fair for everyone involved. Thank you for understanding, bid often, and good luck!
