Like the title says, great project truck. Bought a couple years ago from the previous owner who had it since the 1970s. Truck has a clean title, 130k miles, but the Georgia tag office wrote the title as mileage exempt.
Specs:
SWB fleetside truck, Bench Seat, Silverado Trim, factory rallyes, a/c equipped but locked compressor, manual windows/locks, factory gauge package, 350 4bbl engine, th350 automatic trans, 12 bolt rear end.
Body:
Black paint was redone to original color in the 1990s, shows well but some scratches small chips, dings etc throughout. When repainted, it had bodywork done to the lower fenders by the tires, at least driver cab corner (probably both) and behind rear tires on one side (again probably both).
Interior:
Factory red interior shows good color, nice carpet, nice seatbelts, woodgrain trim nice, dash pad has a couple cracks like most do, previous owner swapped in a shaft-style radio waaaay back in the day which works, but runs off a speaker behind the seat rather than dash. Seat needs recovering, has a cover over it as the lower cushion has cracking in the leather/pleather/vinyl factory cover.
Mechanicals:
350v8 runs and drives. When I bought it, it had a bad exhaust leak at the doughnut gasket, which was repaired along with the exhaust gasket leak. Also had choke on the carb replaced, some new belts/hoses, a new heavy duty battery, both mufflers changed out (system is true duals from manifolds back) valve cover gaskets, and some tuning adjustments made. After fixing all this it became apparent that there was a top end noise that pretty much goes away when warmed up, no metal in the pan at oil changes to check. Transmission shifts well. Tires are brand new Michelin LTX M/S 2s in 235/75/15.
Took the truck on a few 60 mile trips and it did fine with no ill effects other than the low gas mileage you would expect from a truck of its age. After accumulating a bunch of parts as listed below we closed on a new house and I just parked it and haven't done anything with it. Starting it and moving it the other day a front brake line was leaking so that would need to be addressed before driving it much of anywhere other than a trailer.
Extras:
The biggest and best is the GM Performance Parts crate engine - LS3, 525 hp, part number 19301360

• Harmonic Balancer
• Front timing cover
• Aluminum Water Pump
• Oil Filter
• Passenger Side RH Oil Dipstick and Tube
Truck also comes with a NOS a/c condenser that is modern type for higher efficiency with the newer refrigerants, new in box lenses for the turn signals and taillights, complete set of brake hoses, and piles of other odds and ends including an electronic speedometer cluster from the r/v series trucks that fits the factory gauge cluster and would be compatible with a 4l80e if that is the trans you decide to use for the swap.
I'm thinking around $11,500 for everything, much less than what it cost to accumulate it all but open to offers or even possible trades for something that is ready to enjoy. I don't have time to work on something like this with all the work I'll be doing on the house.
Pictures of the truck are below, still looks the same except shinier due to being eternally wet right now with the rain that just wont quit...
