Would love to have a five-window, and that truck certainly has the potential.


I wish I could though the timing isn't right.

Someone is cleaning house,Or are you trying to make room for another 4door lol.
That sucker would look sweet slammed to the ground and all done up.Or just restored.

Going through the vehicle this weekend I noticed I believe all interior knobs present but a single one and found the latches in the glovebox. The radio is there (I am not a chevy person so not sure if it is original but appears to be so). Not knowing the condition of the gas tank or what might be in the bottom that I did NOT want going through the engine I rigged a small fuel tank setup to turn the engine over and ensure it got clean fuel. All original parts are still there (fuel tank and whatnot), just did not want to damage a good engine.

There is rust. Rust means different things to different people.

Some folks are absolutely terrified of even surface rust and some think it is no big deal to have holes 18 inches across. This vehicle needs patch and repair work mostly in the floorboards which is why I labeled it a parts/or restoration vehicle. It is IMO very restorable, but I am experienced at welding and panel repair. It does need floorboards entirely which is common for most any truck of this era. The cab corners need repair as there is see through rust on both sides, hard to photograph but I kept trying different camera settings until I could get it to show. The first 3 pics I send will show it not too bad (heck cant even see the little holes), look for the 4th darker pic I turned off flash so the daylight would show through and people could get a better idea that yes they are there. The running boards are rusted through in a few minor spots but not falling off by a long shot, they will be repairable. I took about 20 pictures of them give or take of the worst rusted areas I could find in the cab area. Frame is solid. Surface rust is on it, but I was jumping up and down on it last weekend trying to heave the hood open (got caught on a spot), its solid

Here is a link to the pics. Pics 19-21, 24, 32 are the cab corners and are taken to depict it in the worst light possible. I could not at first tell from the exterior that they were in "bad" shape. It would be easy to take pics to skew them to be nicer than current condition. You have to look underneath and then of course pull the seat back and off and then take photos from down near the gas tank (which are included) to have a full idea of the shape. Please keep in mind all pics were taken to portray the truck in the worst light possible. Things like the guages are more dirty than anything, I can windex them and retake pics if needed. Simply trying to give you an accurate idea of shape as currently sits. The last item on that link is a video of the engine turning over.

Good compression, getting fuel, I am imagining no spark. I freed up the starter and hooked up one of my batteries to create the video. Purpose being to let prospective buyers hear the engine turning over. Gives them a good idea of the condition of the engine itself. The first place for the new owner to go to for fixing the no start issue would probably be new plugs and wires and a 6 volt battery. It was very close to starting, after an hour or so of tinkering (had to free up starter, and rig fuel setup, battery setup frm my bronco, etc). I had to stop then and decide that I didn't want to go buy new plugs and wires, etc. I am not sure of your mechanical ability. I know I could with the parts have that truck started in an afternoon of tinkering as it was running back in 2001.


edit:

Was digging through my stuff today (waaaaaay too many truck parts) and found quite a bit more stuff that goes with it. I have a set of good running boards portions (3-4 foot good sections from another) for it I forgot about that can be welded in, I have a replacement one of the fender wells, I found the interior knob that was missing, I have at least two extra inside window trim pieces, an extra starter, an extra front bumper, extra bumper supprts and extra radiator support piece. Uhm I am sure there is more I was just trying to sort through and put parts with trucks

Also cleared out the bed of the truck and was really surprised. The bed sides all around are solid. I really thought that would not be the case. The tailgate is solid and works perfectly. The original wood is of course long gone from the bed but the metal bed put in it many years ago is completely solid. I jumped up and down in it today.
