For complete listing information please select the click to bid button to see this item on ebay. This truck has been my daily driver going on 2 years now and has been a blast. I've always loved these trucks. I bought a new one in 1981, 1984 and 1987 (no this aint the one i bought new in '87). I've had 11 of these square bodies in 2wd and 4wd since 1981. This truck still retains it's original 305 v8 engine. The top end has been redone, but according to my mechanic, the bottom end doesn't appear to have been touched yet. Hard to believe after being on the road 30 years. I regularly drive this truck on 500 mile runs and enjoy every minute of it. The motor runs good, the tranny shifts smooth. It is a great looking, driving and riding truck, but i wouldn't call it a show class truck. The passenger fuel tank was not used by the guy i bought it from nor have i used it so i unplugged the sending unit on that side to keep from accidentally hitting the transfer switch and getting crud in my engine. The mufflers are a little loud for my taste. Not bad, but not super quiet either (my 25 yr. Old son loves the rumble). I was going to install new tail pipes but have been considering changing to a different muffler and haven't done it as of yet so that will be one choice the new owner will get to make. Here's a rundown on what has been done in the past 1-3 years and what i know the condition to be. Upgrades within the previous 2-3 years heads redone, transmission rebuilt, new fuel tank and sending unit on drivers side, alternator upgrades made in the last 1-2 years, front end: passenger lower ball joint, tie rod ends, idler arm, bearings inner/outer, seals and front end alignment, new monroe lt shocks engine compartment: new radiator, radiator overflow reservoir, all hoses including heater hoses, belts, improved valve seals, cleaned rear oil galleys in heads. Flushed engine block and heater core. Fresh oil and filter change, new brake master cylinder, new pcv valve, new air conditioning compressor rear end: flushed differential, new spider gears (large/small), retainer pin and bolt, axle bearings/seal, u-joints in drive shaft, new monroe lt shocks, brake pads and wheel cylinders interior: dash cap, door panels, carpet, drivers side window motor, window and lock switches, wiper/cruise switch (acts funky sometimes, i must have gotten the expensive one built in chinaold switch worked great, it was jus.
