This is a 1976 Chevy Custom Deluxe, Short Wheel Base, V8 350, automatic with air conditioning. I am the second owner. I bought this from the original owner close to 3 years ago. When I bought it, it had sat for a few years. So, a lot of stuff had to be replaced. I installed new brake wheel cylinders, new brake booster, new carburetor, all new hoses and belts and radiator. All of the A/C parts where replaced. The interior is all stock except I had a new seat cover put on and original style carpet put in. It came with plain jane wheels and hub caps and I found a nice set of rally wheels and had them powdercoated and installed on the truck with new tires. The tires probably have about 5,000 miles on them. This has been a great truck that I have used weekly for the last 2 1/2 years. It has been a great truck but its time to move on to other things. If you are looking for a great unmolested original truck, this is it. One of the nicest things about this truck is that it is almost completely rust free. You can see that it has some patina surface rust and just a few bubbles of rust here and there, but it is uncommonly unrusty. If you wanted to finish restoring it, you wouldnt have to replace rocker panels and fenders like you would have to with most trucks of this year. The only things I know of that arent working are the temp gauge and the fuel gauge. The fuel gauge worked till this week!! Im pretty sure a temp sending unit would fix the temp gauge and a fuel sending unit would fix the other. Also, I had an updated steering wheel put on since the original one was cracked and gummy feeling and the guy that installed it for me got the wrong mounting kit so the steering wheel is one half a turn off. He ran out of time that day to get another one and I just never made it back to get the right adapter put on it so the new steering wheel would line up right. Thats it. The pictures speak for themselves. I just had it detailed and the original paint shows pretty good but it really needs a repaint. You can see that it has some generic trim down the side and half of it was peeling off so I just took it all off. The motor is the original motor and is untouched. It will puff a little smoke when it first starts. I would imagine the valve seals are dry. It runs great and doesnt burn any oil to speak of. Ive kept the oil changed on a regular basis. If you know about these good ol chevy 350 motors, it will probably run forever just like it is, but if you are a perfectionist, you may want to freshen the motor up. It does start and run just fine like it is and I would drive it anywhere just the way it is. If you have any questions for me, email me and I'll be glad to answer them. I dont want to trade. This is a cash only deal. I am listing this truck at a very cheap price with NO RESERVE.
