IN. block, modified to a high - performance 383 CU. IN. approximately 8000 miles ago. Work performed by ASA Certified GM Master Technician. This is a very strong, powerful engine, which today would cost well over 1/2 of what we're asking all by itself. - New Edelbrock carburetor (2008).Unrestored areas:- Vertical Crack in center of windshield, does not effect view. Gas gauge needs new sending unit. Speedometer / Odometer does not work, therefore actual mileage cannot be ascertained, likely just a cable, it worked until a couple years ago. There is a tear in right side of driver seat (from the arm rest rubbing ) and some stains on the same side, none of which shows when the arm-rest is down (see pix). A seam is separated in seat bottom, passenger side. Passenger side mirror is cracked and a small piece missing. It works fine however. No radio. Carpet is decent, about 10 years old. Lacking 2 handles for heater controls. A/C Works extremely well, however loses coolant when unused for a few weeks at a time.Engine compartment is unrestored. This is where most of the 5% un-restored is located. We stopped short of preparing and painting this area. As you can see from the photo's, there is some deeper rust on the top-inner-fender in the front, driver side and, to a much lesser degree on the front passenger side. The small rusted areas need to be ground out and welded or that portion of the inner-fender replaced. Other than those two spots, everything is just surface rust and should easily sand off and paint well.

Two of the heater slide arms are missing or broken. There is a small switch on the dash to turn on the blower and a valve in the engine compartment must be opened in the winter to allow the heated water into the heater radiator core. There are a couple minor fluid leaks. One from the rear axle and the other from the driver-front ball joint.On Nov-12-11 at 07:28:48 PST, seller added the following information: The truck is licensed and inspected in the state of Missouri and is driven regularly.
