Selling this cool project at a huge loss due to lack of time to complete. I have receipts for more than $10k invested NOT COUNTING the hundreds of hours of work already done over the last 6 years, documented with hundreds of photos (link provided upon request). WAY too much to list, but here are the basics: Mechanical: Needs nothing mechanical other than reassembly, some front end adjustment (original 83 truck front crossmember installed). Has power tilt steering, power front disk brakes, back brakes are rebuilt drums; 3:42 GM posi rear with new gear set, seals and bearings, CPP 5-lug axles (front wheels are 5-lug also). 15x8 SS Cragars with great tires. Truck was completely together and running/driving great in July 2010 before being disassembled. Green OK title in my name. Registration expired Dec. 31. Engine is very low mileage stock rebuilt ‘80 model 454 truck engine with lots of custom parts - dual plane polished Procomp intake, durashine Edelbrock 750 carb and chrome valve covers, all new wires, filters, belts, hoses etc.; rebuilt 350 turbo trans with B&M floor shift. Currently exhaust is headers dumped to tube mufflers under the cab. Interior: Custom 6-gauge panel with new Dolphin gauges, walnut 3-spoke Chevy steering wheel new in box with adapter kit for GM tilt column, tan cloth seats from ‘01 Silverado, including fold-down console/center seat. I have sound deadener, new tan carpet, all ready to go in. Also have a big piece of real tan leather hide I was going to recover visors with and maybe make custom door panels (arm rests are already covered and ready to install.) Wiring is original and in good working condition (all lights, turn sigs, wiper motor etc. work). I have tons of new parts in packages to finish project - cab and radiator support mount kits, good used windshield, new windshield gasket and door/cab weatherstripping/felts, seals, hardware etc. - everything except some deluxe heater parts which are available online and should be replaced/some misc. grommets and small rubber pieces etc. A nearly rust-free 64 flatbed parts truck comes with it also - I bought it to get the good sheetmetal parts for front clip. Body: Cab and front clip are off the truck. 99% of rust cut out, replaced with new metal (small sections of floor at kick panels repaired by previous owner I left alone). New rocker panels already welded on and primered. Receiver tow hitch installed. Inside cab and insides of doors have been painted original fawn metallic; outside cab, front clip parts and bed are currently in Matrix black epoxy primer (only outsides of doors need primer, I ran out) - all body work done except for high build primer and blocking for paint. Back half of frame up to firewall all cleaned/painted. All rust-free front clip/inner fenders/radiator core support are in primer, ready to paint. Bed floor has been completely replaced with white oak (finished with 4 coats of natural stain/clear polyurethane) and powder-coated new metal strips and hardware. Removed tailgate chains and hook latches and replaced with custom latch kit inside bed. New chrome rear bumper already on, also have new chrome grill and chrome front bumper to put on, plus chrome mirrors, new wiper arms and also have custom cab trim panels (fair shape originals). Many more restoration details and new/used good parts not mentioned here.
