You are looking at a garage stored (when not being used) desert survivor. This truck has never been in a wreck. I bought this truck in 1980 from the original owner. Was purchased new in PHX and has been in AZ its whole life.The only body part that has been replaced is the right side fiberglass fender. A tire blowout took it out. It was replaced with a GM Fender. You read that right, the body is completely GM, not a P.O.S. that sat for 10 years and got restored out of a catalog with garbage parts. When it was repainted 10 years ago the front bumper was re-chromed, not replaced with tin junk. This truck even has the original tire jack and lug wrench. This truck has been maintained, not restored. Being that it is driven and does not sit much it is not perfect but VERY NICE. In 1998 the original engine (at 271k mi.) was replaced with a 1991 4-bolt 454 that was bored 30 and forged pistons were installed. Otherwise built stock. In 2008 the original transmission was replaced with a 4L80E. At that time I installed a GM throttle body injection system and ECM to go with the electronics in the trans. Yes, it does have the ALDL port for diagnostics. This is the classic beauty you want hauling your trailer Queen to the show.
The camper is a Tri-Glas industries camper. It has the bed kit with side box storage, custom cabinet with independent stereo, and a high-end "Fantastic" brand vent fan.
Here is a list of the toys on this truck:::

Tilt Wheel                                                                   L.E.D. Marker lights
Electronic Cruise--no transducer                                   Fog Lights
Dual gas tanks                                                            Aux radiator cooling fan for desert driving
Bench seat with fold down console                               Aux trans cooler and trans fluid temp gauge
Lighted Visor                                                              Sanden SD-10 A/C compressor
Dual Batteries                                                             Rear View mirror w/map lights
Behind the seat toolbox wired with 12volt                      Aluminized dual exhaust
150 watt power inverter--hardwired                              Dakota Digital Dash
Electronic Trailer brake controller                                 Full Length Split running boards
Power Door Locks w/2 remotes

I challenge you to find a nicer one at any price..Let alone the $12,500 I am asking for this one. I have nothing to hide and encourage you ask questions if I have missed something. Either e-mail me through e-bay or call me at 602-228-9420. I am also willing to take more/different pics if you would like. I also would encourage an independent inspection if you are not used to buying a used vehicle and want an impartial opinion. For the cost of fuel and a plane ticket home I will personally drive this fabulous truck to you (after full payment).

GM opens military discount to 21M veterans and their spouses

Thu, Apr 7 2016

May marks the start of National Military Appreciation Month, and General Motors is getting into the spirit by expanding its military discount program to, well, just about everyone. That includes a total of 21 million military veterans and their spouses, along with the current slate of active duty, reserve, and National Guard members. The discount can slash thousands of dollars off the price of a new Buick, Chevrolet, or GMC vehicles, with Automotive News listing an $1,100 discount on the top gas-powered version of the Malibu, the Premiere. Those that want a bit more spice can get $1,700 off the price of a last-generation 2015 Camaro SS, while truck buyers will enjoy $3,000 off the Chevy Silverado All Star. That's just a start, though, since the military discount can be paired with other GM incentives. The discount doesn't apply to everything, though. Some are understandable – none of Cadillac's vehicles are included in the deal, nor is the Corvette Z06. You'll also be unable to apply the discount to a range of base-level trims, like the Chevy Cruze or Equinox L, the base Colorado, or the entry level GMC Acadia, Canyon, and Terrain. A full list is available at GM's dedicated military discount website. GM's expanded discount plan runs from today through May 31.

Son surprises his dad by restoring his 1949 pickup for Christmas

Mon, Jan 5 2015

Norman Meal, an 83-year-old retired farmer from Rushville, IN, nearly missed his big Christmas gift when his son, Kyle, first presented it to him. Norman was oblivious and was looking all over the garage floor until Kyle pointed out a satin black pickup with a bow on it parked inside. This wasn't just another case of a child buying a parent a dream vehicle; the '49 GMC sitting there was Norman's very first truck that was restored and ready to drive. According to Fox 59 WXIN, Norman's father purchased the GMC in 1949, and Norman bought it from him in the mid '50s to use on the farm. However, for about the past 13 years, the truck had been rotting away in the garage of one of Kyle's friends. As a perfect gift to his dad, Kyle took the pickup to a restoration shop to make the old vehicle roadworthy again. Practically everything was replaced – except for the horn. Thankfully, Kyle filmed his dad's reaction to getting the GMC. Check it out and watch them take a drive in the heartwarming video above.
