You are bidding on a vintage 1980 GMC (K2500) ¾ ton 4X4 Trailering Special 10,000 GVW pickup originally an automatic now a 5 speed overdrive. The body as far as I know is original. The mechanical (less cruise control) is, as far as I wanted to go is complete. The cosmetic portion was still to be done. Cosmetic being paint, upholstery, seals, door panels and carpet. If the pictures are not clear the colors are grey/silver and pink.

So far I still have not “finished” the truck and don’t have a trailer. The truck was purchased in Boise Idaho and was owners manual indicates it sold new in Emmit Idaho, definitely a dry country truck. The previous owner said the truck had a slide in camper when he purchased it and he sold it. CONDITION: There is one bad rust spot on the drivers door lower rear corner shown in the pics, all the other rust I am aware of is surface rust. I have several pictures that show the rust spots. There are several drilled holes in the bed for a slide in camper and maybe a fifth wheel hookup. Underneath and overall the body is solid except for the drivers door, underneath the truck is clean. The tranny tunnel has been patched and re-cut for the 5 sp tranny. The carpet has cutouts that missed the hole and is mostly dry rotted. The upholstery is worn and stained and has a big tear and a couple of holes on the drivers side. The door panels are faded and discolored from use and sunshine. The window weatherstrips are shot. The paint on the roof and hood are very faded, the re-paint job to steelhead grey and salmon (pink) was a low quality job at best. The original colors were silver and maroon. The truck drives great; everything mechanically works except the cruise control. Blinkers, lights, windows, a/c, heater, etc all work as they should. EMMISSIONS All of the emissions devices are gone, air pump vapor recovers cat converter, everything is gone and not available. Be sure this truck will be legal in your state if you plan to drive it on the road. It is legal in Texas and has current safety inspection. Payment: A $500.00 deposit will be required within 72 hours of the end of the auction. Any balance will be due at time of pickup. I will deliver (by driving) within 150 miles of Houston if needed. Shipping: Buyer will have to arrange for pickup and shipping. The truck was shipped from Boise by DAS (not a recommendation or endorsement). NO WARRANTY SOLD AS IS
