I have recently considered selling my truck. I bought it in Feb. It runs and
is currently being stored. It does need a little work but is in decent
condition. I'm selling it in the same condition I purchased it except that I
have replaced the window seals, felt around glass in doors and I have
changed the door locks. It was purchased in Oklahoma and was driven to
Garland. Not inspected/registered in Texas. Have title.

The following is based on what I was told at the time of purchase and what I
know after having the truck.

* 305 engine
* 350 transmission
* engine and transmission had work at least one year prior to feb 06.
* straight pipe exhaust, about 2-3 ft after manifolds
* front disc brakes and lines have been replaced
* air blows but not cold. compressor does appear to turn on
* Sony radio/cd player
* 2-6x9 and 2-4" two-way speakers included, all are Pioneer
* 2 Chevy bow-tie tips, chrome and not attached
* Rear brakes need replacement, drums/shoes/cylinder/axel seal. research
shows parts to run ~$160 total and can be done by nearly any DIY weekend
warrior
* streering column cover/lock w/key (2)
* NO major rust and frame seems to be straight with no visible repairs to
it.
* have carfax report
* dash pad cover appears fairly new and is in good condition
* NO cracked or chipped windows, incl windshield
* had bucket seats from late model chevy but replaced with used original
style bench-seat, has seat cover.

I originally purchased it with full intention to work on it and use it as my
main method of transportation. I did have the $ to work on it but some
things came up which required me to postpone this project and I have not
been able to get to a point where i can resume, recent health issues have
also contributed to this.

I believe it's ~200-220k, i'd have to go to storage to get exact numbers.
Was told the engine had been rebuilt 50-60k ago. As far as price...that
depends on the offers out there. If i had an idea i'd have thrown it out
there. Not sure what the going rate is but $2k seems to be a common starting
point so far.
