My husband and I have owned this truck for 2 years now. We bought it in Seattle with a rebuilt v8 390 engine, c6 transmission (50,500 miles on it) and dual exhaust. The
body is straight and it's got a clean title. We've driven it < 1000
miles since we've owned it(most of that was our move to Portland). We've put a few thousand dollars of work
into it since then (~$4500, all mechanical, all done by
professionals). We focused on getting the innards running great, and then we were going to move on to the exterior. Most of the documentation for this work is
available. We:
- replaced radiator
- added electric choke (two pumps of the accelerator and it turns on.)
- rewired dash (to fix coolant gauge and speedometer)
- fixed low idle vacuum and timing issues.
- fixed transmission kick down linkage so its super speedy at passing
- replaced carburator
- replaced distributor
- replaced breaks (shoes and cylinders)
- fixed fan clutch which was stealing horsepower from the engine
- transmission flush
- replaced rag joint
Things that still need attention:
- the Exterior. Its a straight body. It will need attention before it will be a head
turner. Some surface rust. The previous owner bondo'ed it as well. We unfortunately didn't do enough research to see the extent of it until we were getting estimates on paint jobs.
- steering column bearing needs to be replaced. We were going to put
power steering in it, so we deferred the work. The rag joint tore and was fixed, but this apparently didn't fix the steering issues.
- odometer is now not working (just realized this looking at old
paperwork. :-/)
The car is registered in Oregon as a Special Interest Vehicle, which
means you don't have to pay insurance on it. We wanted this to be a truck handed down to our kids. We've reconciled this with the reality of not having a place to work on it and our desire to move around more.
We are EXTREMELY motivated to sell this truck. We're moving and it needs a new home too.
The car is parked near the corner of 19th and NE Schuyler. Come by, kick
the tires. If you like it and want to take it for a test drive, call
803.553.5801 or 803.221.2672 to setup an appointment. Serious offers
only, please. If you think you have a better price and it's reasonable, tell us why and we'll reconsider. Thanks!
