I purchased the truck from my father in law in 05,It had a body restoration in the late 90's but is beginning to show wear. This is not a show truck but is in good condition for a 76 model. The body has rust showing in the passenger door, rocker and inner fender as well as the driver bed behind the wheel and on the front of the hood. The rest of the truck and the frame are in solid condition. I replaced the engine with a fuel injected 350 from a 90 model chevy truck with about 140,000 miles on it. I have only drove the truck 2 times since the motor replacement and it runs good. My plan was to get the 350 running and then pull it and build a 383 stroker so I have not spent a lot of time driving the truck with this motor. I have completely lost interest in the truck and want to sell to finish another project.
Thing that have been replace with the engine swap are new tbi wiring harness from speedway motors , new distributor ,coil ,plugs, wires, knock sensor, coolant temp sensor, iac valve, thermostat, ceramic coated headers, O2 sensor, electric fuel pump, fuel lines, fuel filters, oil pressure switch, transmission cable. Things that still need done are the transmission cable still needs some adjustment, the throttle body was rebuilt but I think it could use two new injectors. I was going to have a new chip burnt for the ECM but was wanting to wait on the 383 swap. The truck does run and drive I just haven't because of the big future plans.
Things that have been done since 2006
Dana 70 rear with 4:88 gears and a locker. New seals, brake shoes, wheel cylinders, brake lines.
GM 10 bolt front with new 4:88 gears, seals, bearings, hubs, rotors, calipers, brake pads, backing plates, ball joints, tie rod ends and lockout hubs.
Rebuilt GM th350 with new aluminum pan
Rebuilt 241c transfer case with Off Road Design SYE. New drive shaft in rear and rebuilt front.
Superlift 12" lift with braided brake lines, shocks, dual steering stabilizer, ORD rear shackle flip, ORD front shackles, poly bushing .
Has ORD weld on frame brace, the frame was not broke I had it installed with a new stering gear box and new rag joint.
18x39.5x15 Super Swamper Boggers with almost new tread
15x14 Eaton steel wheels from national tire and wheel.
Other things are a line lock on the front brakes that is currently not wired up, Proform tac, Pionner cd player, ECM and fusses for motor are located in the glove box. The bed is rhino lined. I also have two good doors off of another truck to go with it if you want them. Cab bushings have been replaced with poly bushings. The gas tank has also been replaced.
The bad is the dash has one crack in it, the stitching in the seat is starting to separate in the middle, the rust spots that was mentioned above and the paint is faded and getting in poor condition. The motor may also need some tunning and tweaking.
I have tried to list everything but I know I am forgetting a lot of stuff. So if you have any questions feel free to ask and I will try to get back asap. Do remember this truck is 37 years old and it does show it. If you are looking for a show truck or a perfect look somewere else. THIS TRUCK IS BEING SOLD WHERE IS AS IS WITH NOW WARRANTY. I will require a $500 non refundable deposit within 48 hours of end of auction and the remainder to be paid within 7 days of auction end. Please contact me about payment. Buyer is responsible for pickup or shipping. I have a uncle in the auto transport business and may be able to ship depending on your location . I can get his contact info to you if you would like. Thanks for looking and please don't bid if you cant afford to buy.

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you
Thu, 21 Feb 2013As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.
Foreign automakers pay from $38 to $65 per hour to non-union workers
Sun, Mar 29 2015As leaders for the United Auto Workers gather in Detroit for their Special Convention on Collective Bargaining to work out the negotiating stance for this year's new labor agreements with the Detroit 3 automakers, what they most want to do is figure out how to eliminate the two-tier wage scale. However, the lower Tier 2 wage has allowed the domestic automakers to reduce their labor costs, hire more workers, and compete better with their import competition. As it stands, per-hour labor rates including benefits are $58 at General Motors, $57 at Ford, and $48 at Fiat-Chrysler – a reflection of FCA's much greater number of Tier 2 workers. The Center for Automotive Research released a study of labor rates (including benefits) that put numbers to what the imports pay: Mercedes-Benz pays the most, at an average of $65 per hour, Volkswagen pays the least, at $38 per hour, and BMW is just a hair above that at $39 per hour. Among the Detroit competitors, Honda workers earn an average of $49 per hour, at Toyota it's $48 per hour, Nissan is $42 per hour, and Hyundai-Kia pays $41 per hour. The lower import wages are aided by their greater use of temporary workers compared to the domestics. Automotive News says the ten-dollar gap between those foreign camakers and the domestics turns out to about an extra $250 per car in labor, which adds up quickly when you're pumping out many millions of cars. That $250-per-car number is one that, come negotiating time, the Detroit 3 will want to reduce, as the UAW is trying to raise both Tier 1 and Tier 2 wages. Another wrinkle is that the domestic carmakers are considering the wide adoption of a third wage level lower than Tier 2. Some workers who do minor tasks like assembling parts trays kits and battery packs already make less than Tier 2, but the UAW will be quite wary about cementing yet another wage scale at the bottom of the system while it's trying to fight a bigger battle at the top.
