*** ALL REASONABLE OFFERS WILL BE CONSIDERED *** Priced to sell is my 1969 Chevy semi pro street pickup. I have a clear title in hand. Just about everything needed to complete this truck is included. I bought this truck running in 2002 out of Oklahoma. Started a complete rebuild that came to a quick halt in 2003 due to health in the family. This truck has sat since 2003. I purchased a new custom ordered 383 cu.in. 550 hp Chevy stroker built with all forged Eagle internals, 11.5 to 1 compression and prepped for a 300 shot of nitrous which is not complete. I ordered a new Raptor 700R4 4sp. automatic transmission with a 4,200 - 4,500 stall torque converter designed to handle up to 1,000 hp. The rear end was a fresh 4:56 posi unit. I bought a completely new interior, Pro Comp gauges, Hurst Ratchet Shifter, large aluminum fuel cell, twin inline transmission fluid coolers, high flow Holley electric fuel pump and replaceable filter, all braided stainless steel fuel and transmission fluid lines, ceramic coated headers, 3" exhaust system with Magnaflow mufflers, serpentine belt system, power window kit, power door lock kit, new Perma Cool aluminum high capacity radiator, electric cooling fan and more as the pictures will show. This truck has only had the break-in time placed on the engine and then only driven 10 miles which was to and from the muffler shop. It ran very strong, sounds super aggressive and drove straight arrow from a dead stop to 100 mph and back to a dead stop. Drum brakes on the rear end and dropped spindle disc brakes on the front. The truck rode really nice. My intention was to complete this truck as a street driver cruiser that would stomp any competition that might come along therefore, no roll cage or racing seats. Just comfort and all the luxuries of a standard street truck including air-conditioning, power steering & power brakes.Since parking this truck in 2003 the engine has locked up. This can only be from moisture in the cylinders over time that rusted the rings to the cylinder walls. The engine has practically no run time on it and has $7,000.00 worth of parts to build it. It will need to be opened up and honed, clean or replace the rings and while the engine is apart, this would be the time to lower the compression ratio if you want to run pump gas. As it is built now it requires 105 octane. I ordered it with a full roller valve train. I can't find the spec's on the cam. No need to buy racing fuel. There are additives available for 93 octane unleaded that will boost the fuel to 105 octane. The transmission has just the 10 miles on it and was purchased at a discounted price of $1,877.00 delivered. I had a contact at the time that gave me 20% off the retail. The transmission is built to handle up to 1,000 hp. The nitrous installation was never finished (lines and tank not included) but would have provided a total of approx. 850 hp. The engine has the nitrous base plate under the Holley carb and the wet system solenoids. All the glass is good, one power window is installed and the other is only half done. Once again, most everything to complete the truck is here. Approx. 4,000.00 spent on seats, all interior upholstery panels, retracting seat belt kit, carpet, soundproofing, gauges, power window kit with wing window elimination glass, power door lock kit, radiator & fan, trans coolers, braided hose for just about everything, Earls & Russell fittings, high flow holley electric fuel pump and separate replacement filter assembly, M/T street slicks with tubes (new last summer), exhaust system, Hurst Ratchet Shifter and so on. Then there is the purchase price of the truck itself, $5,900 in 2002 running with a stock 350 V8 and a 350 turbo hydramatic trans. All parts purchased new in 2002 & 2003.Not much of a rust problem here. The floor pans are solid, lower rockers look good and the only thing I found when I bought it was a front right body mount (cab) that needs replacing. The tailgate shell needs replacing and is readily available from Classic Industries online for approx. $305.00. All latches and linkage and hinge hardware will transfer over from the existing tailgate to the new. I have hung on to this truck this long because I had hoped to finish it for myself. I have too much invested that I won't get back but I am moving from AR back to CA to be close to family and I can't take everything with me. My age doesn't help either. IF THIS TRUCK DOES NOT SELL BY THE END OF THIS AUCTION IT WILL BE PARTED OUT IMMEDIATELY. This is an excellent project for a father and son team. Even the bodywork to make it perfect is not too much for a first-timer.Definitely one bad street driver here when done that will turn a lot of heads. This engine is no joke, running headers only this truck will be heard for miles when you stand on it. THIS PICKUP WILL HAVE TO BE LOADED WITH A WINCH. IT ROLLS FREELY, PARK POSITION WITH THE SHIFTER HOLDS IT SOLID. BRAKES HAVE BEEN BLED FOR LINE REPLACEMENT WHICH WAS NOT DONE. THE TRUCK IS LOCATED IN RUSSELLVILLE ARKANSAS. SHOULD THIS AUCTION END WITHOUT AN ACCEPTED OFFER IT WILL BE PARTED OUT IMMEDIATELY. A SMALL PAYPAL PAYMENT OF $300.00 IS REQUIRED WITHIN 24 HOURS OF YOUR ACCEPTED OFFER. THIS AMOUNT IS NECESSARY TO PAY FOR THIS LISTING THROUGH EBAY AS WELL AS A DEPOSIT OF GOOD FAITH OF YOU COMPLETING THIS PURCHASE.
