I have some other projects that I'd like to move forward with, so I'm going to look to sell my truck.

My most detailed build thread was on another forum that no longer exists, but here is what I have posted on Lat-G.

This is before the air breather was striped and the billet radiator cap was added, but shows the detail under the hood.

4-link rear with Ridetech air bags
9" Ford w/ 3.25 ratio - big drum brakes

Body:
Bitchin Firewall
Hood welded and smoothed (also reinforced)
Bed welded, mini-tubbed, smoothed, roll pan, Pro-choice hinge kit etc.
Materials used - Dupont Vari-prime, Uro-prime, sealer, Chroma-Base, Chroma-Clear - sanded and buffed
Custom inner fenders
Bottom of fenders, cab, bed coated with stonegaurd
Underhood and interior flat cleared
Bed wood is quarter sawn sycamore, cleared all sides and sanded and buffed
LED taillights
Shaved door handles with remote keyless entry – also manual override (ie: dead battery emergency!)

Interior:

http://www.customstitchin.com/trucksothercoolstuff.html
Blaupunkt head unit
Focal 5 1/4 fronts
Infinity 5X7 rears
Aux input in console - ie: iPod etc.
New Vintage gauges
Vintage Air heat and AC
Billet Specialties steering wheel
Newport Engr. wiper motor
AAW wiring kit
Dynamat throughout

Drivetrain:
ZZ4 350 GM crate engine
Edelbrock RPM (endurashine) w/ Edelbrock 750
700R4 w/ Bowler lockup module, Lokar Shifter
Bowtie Overdrives TV cable setup
Vintage Air Frontrunner – all heater and AC lines are fittings are Aeroquip EZ Clip
Full length S&S headers into x-pipe, chambered mufflers
AFCO Aluminum radiator, electric fan w/ DC controls fan controller

There are tons of other little things about the truck, but I can't list all of them here. It has over 1,000 miles on it now and really, the only "wish list" item would possibly be power steering, which I have the Vintage air brackets to add to the Frontunner and would just need to buy a power rack. Other than that the truck is ready to drive anywhere.

I have mixed emotions about selling it..... it's something that Dad and I have worked long and hard to complete, but my desire to build other projects is motivating me to part with it.

PM me with any questions, pic requests, or my contact information.

The truck is located near Batesville, IN

dropped to $48K or serious offers.

Thank you,

Brandon

Thanks! I know this isn't the ideal vehicle for this target audience, but if someone is looking for a nice old Chevy Truck, this one would fit the bill.

I have a '67 Chevy II that is just begging me to get started on it! - but other than that, there's no necessity to sell it.

So far I'm loving the 'Burb! It should be perfect for haulin' the family around.

I really like the '52 too, but it's about as practical as my Vette was with the kids....

I may list it in Goodguys to see if that draws any attention -- - also considering eBay....

I'll post links if I put it to auction. Getting ready to build a new shop and would like to start on the Nova once the shop is finished. That is, if I can keep from tinkering with the Suburban!!!

10-26-2012, 01:41 PM
Well - - -- we'll give eBay a shot.

Still open to offers though.

Thanks

Truck looks awesome man... I would like to have it, but too many at the moment. Sold several in the last few weeks, but I believe I have added more than what I sold. Haha

I'll give it another bump and price reduction on here and then I'll probably give it another spin on eBay.

The truck is sold! It will be heading to the new owner in Texas in 7-10 days when the car carrier comes to pick it up.

It will be missed. There wer a lot of long nights with Dad working on this project, but selling it doesn't take away any of those memories.

I'm really looking forward to the next project!

Thanks to everyone for the kind words about the truck. I think the new owner will really enjoy it.. I am glad it is going to be far enough away that I don't have to see it driven around town (that would be tough).
