Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds

Wish I had the room to park that - it's a real time capsule.

It's almost worth it just for the original sandalwood steering wheel that hasn't rotted to powder like all the others. You know the truck was cared for just by looking at that.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds

two jaw dropper Cheyenne Super shorties on ebay. 1st one has a 350 and no SPID is shown - but it has the correct and oft overlooked stainless cover on the tailgate handle. 2nd one is gorgeous, but tailgate handle is painted and, if you dig into the photobucket link, SPID shows it was originally a lwb white/ochre Cheyenne with saddle interior. Something seems amiss - the pic of the glovebox door with the owner's manual laying over the SPID area looks like a different gb door than the one shown with the SPID. Might be my imagination. Don't care, whether either is original or a shortened clone, they are both gorgeous. Hope they get their money out of them - but if bidding, know what to look for! I'd want to see the SPID on the black bucket truck (1st one), and, if it's a legit 115 black w/black buckets super, I think the starting bid isn't far off.. (EDIT: well, not far off for someone that can afford it) But who knows what the reserve may be. Again, very nice trucks.

They are both very nice.....however the second one looks like the frame was re-welded improperly with a straight cut and no gussets.

This is either a typo, a scam or a steal- https://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/cto/5843468767.html

$4k for a rebuilt, newly painted 402?

It's cheaper in Portland than it is in Biloxi, but at least in Biloxi it has MS plates.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds

This was incorrect after seeing the truck
Quote:
she's sending me the VIN - the PID is gone from the GB.


The truck was very nice inside but with some rust. The nicest/cleanest dash I've seen. It was used to run back/forth to the dump and I'm not sure the engine was ever taken care of (original, had a mouse nest in glove box and on top of carb).

Quote:
Don't know what your budget is but you would never get the truck your looking at to the level of this one in Portland
The budget is <$3000 for a truck that needs work, but not a complete frame off restoration (as I'll be doing it myself). Ideally, it has the usual issues - spots of rust, some dents, a carb that needs rebuilding, paint, new seat, general interior redo (removing the hack job radios, etc).

Not afraid of welding, sanding, grinding, electrical, etc - just never done engines outside of engineering school 13 years ago. Want a truck that can get me the 10 mile round trip to Central Welding, Home Depot, etc while still having many weekend projects over the next years to have a nice truck for the next 30 years (I don't want to just buy a truck... won't learn anything and where's the fun in that )

https://seattle.craigslist.org/tac/cto/5852377165.html

Another possibility. My guess is that it needs an engine replacement... I won't be able to handle that but for the right price - it may fit in my budget considering the cost of basic crate engines.

Wow, that first link is a c20 cheyenne super custom camper that looks to be in decent shape. Originally a 402 though perhaps? Still, I like it. SPID would be good to see.

Pretty solid and priced for us northeast folks used to seeing more holes than this one has. Not sure I believe the production numbers this guy quotes but I've only seen one other 4x4 burn around here and it wasn't a slant nose. Still K20 v8 4spd burn can't be all that common.

The number of 3/4 ton 4X4 Subs produced in 68 is in fact 299.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds

I'm trying to find a 4x4 67-72 to be my first project, and teach me something about automotive mechanics, total newbie here. Being on the east coast and not at all looking forward to rust repair I'm considering shipping something to MD (about a $1000 cost).

This truck is not currently running, he knows the previous owner put some bondo repair on it before powdercoating and giving it this paint job. He believes the frame bed cab etc are original becuase it has 4 drum brakes but he's only had it for 2 years. Has a SM465. But no sticker on the glove box.

So, is this truck going to be too much of a project? I have a father and brother in law that are skilled mechanics and can do the labor to replace this engine. But who know what else is wrong. Or should I just keep looking and try to find a driving 4wd with little to no rust thats within my budget (as close to or under $8k as possible)

This is the craigslist post https://albuquerque.craigslist.org/cto/5795705038.html

And a video he sent me of the truck https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZdXB6I5jPM

Thanks so much for all the help, any and all advice greatly appreciated - Nancy

Total newbie as well... Welcome! This forum is great.

My advice after seeing a lot online and then in person is... it looks 1000x better online. Body panels will look straight, rust will look limited and then in person you wonder if it's the same truck! If you can't go in person, it may be worth having an independent mobile mechanic check it out and send you a detailed report.

For a budget of 8K, I'd think you could find a decent higher trim level K series truck (with power steering, disc brakes, etc). Even a roller for $4k that you need to drop an engine in would be within $8k. And always ask for the PID on the inside of the glove box door, if available. It'll tell you a ton of info on the truck.

Welcome to the board! It's hard to buy anything based on pictures, but it's done quite often. I bought a 72 4x4 out of Washington state a few years back( I am in Maryland as well) I got pictures of everything I wanted to see and I had a member look at it for me as well.

Good luck on your hunt!
