All work was performed by me less than 1 year ago all fluids flushed and changed out, verything inspected, erviced and attended to. I also have the original build tag, uild sheet, nd the original owner’s paperwork. I have all receipts for work and parts used on the truck since I have owned it.
Only known problems with truck are as follows:

• Driver side fuel tank doesn’t read right on the gas gauge (needs new sending unit)
• Windshield wipers won’t cut off (currently unplugged, eeds wiper motor.)
• Rear end needs to be re-geared (4.10’s are too low for extended trips…)
• Steering sector drips fluid (Needs new seal kit or replace with new unit)
• Transmission drips fluid from shifter shaft (needs new seal)

the above picture shows the current set-up of the front grill. some of the other pics show it with the original '79 grill, hich you will get if you wish to swap it back out. some of the interior shots show it with the original steering wheel, hich you will get as well. It currently has the 60-66 steering wheel installed.
below are photos of the parts truck, nd extra parts that come with the sale, s well as all the paperwork that's with the truck.
Again, his is a very solid truck. I have owned several "squarebody" era trucks, nd this one is by far the cleanest one. The truck spent the majority of its life pulling a division 5 drag car around, nd was very well taken care of. The original owner sprung for the optional dealer installed under body coating, hich has got to be the reason this truck has survived this well. There is no "rot" on this truck. All that being said, his is still a 36 year old truck. It has small dings here and there, ome of the paint had faded over the years, ts not new, ut will out last most newer $50K vehicles being built and put on the road today. It has stood the test of time, nd will continue to do so with proper maintenance and care. With the air bag set up in the rear, t will haul more than it would when it was originally made, o please save the "oh, ou ruined that truck!" comments... no one likes an a$$ hole. The truck is sold as-is, here-is. No warranty is expressed or implied. I will require a $500.00 dollar deposit from the winning bidder within 24 hours of the auctions end. The balance is due upon pick-up of the vehicle, n cash. I can hold the parts truck and extra parts for a reasonable amount of time if the winning bidder needs me to do so. Please ask any and all questions before bidding. I have the truck listed locally, nd have the right to end this auction at any point that I strike a deal with someone, ocal, r otherwise. I have just over 10k invested in this truck, ot to mention all my time and labor... I will entertain offers. Reasonable offers. I'm also willing to assist in shipping this truck anywhere in the world, n your dime. I have a short video of the truck starting andidlingthat I can send to anyone who wants it, ia text message. See above pics for contact number.
