Imported from Oregon in March all duties paid and uk registered, tax and MOT exempt, 350 V8 crate engine fitted approx 2012, Holley four barrel carb with electric choke so starts anytime with no issues, TH350 auto with B&M floor shifter, twin side exit flowmasters (sound great without being deafening) lowered on CPP coil springs all round and just fitted brand new 7 and 8 x 15 smoothies on big and little tyres, will include original wheels and white walls, rotten old bed has been removed and replaced with brand new wood and refurbished rails with all new stainless bolts and rust free chassis was fully wax oiled at the same time, I have replaced the following since the truck has been in the U.K.<br />
<br />
1)Door handles inside and out (chrome)<br />
2)windscreen (glass and wipers)<br />
3) window winders (chrome)<br />
4)grille (chrome)<br />
5) new black and chrome lap belts bolted to the body in factory points (x 3) <br />
<br />
Truck is 47 years old so does have a few issues that need to be mentioned, brakes work and stop the truck but would benefit from a run through in my opinion, I was going to do a disc conversion so have managed for now.<br />
Fuel gauge doesn"t work but has been tracked down as a faulty sender which are about 30-40 just not had time to order and fit one.<br />
Truck is solid apart from one small common area of rust in one of the rocker panels (passenger) that"s the only rust on it anywhere.<br />
<br />
In summary this truck has some great parts added most notably the recent 350 V8 and rides nicely on modern coil springs but with the old school step side wood bed body style, it has a relaxed attitude to bodywork ,a few dents and marks here and there and some good patina so can be used anyway you like without worry, it"s almost 100% solid and is a great affordable starting point in classic American pick ups. Being a Chevy there"s lots of upgrades available to take it further regardless of budget.<br />
<br />
Don"t really want a part exchange as I need the funds to complete my house refurb but try me if it"s interesting I will consider it.....<br />
