The body has rust in all the normal/usual places. They are so commonly rusted in these places that LMC (and tons of other places) make all the patch panels for them, and they're all really cheap. (cab corners, rockers, lower fender pieces, etc.) pretty much any rust spot you have there is a cut and weld patch for it.
I included as many pix as I could. If you want more pix just ask and I'll send you more.
Usually everyone wants to pull the straight 6 and put a V8 in but I would just hate to do that to this truck because the straight 6 in it run so great! Just a flick of the key and it starts right up and sounds great.
All the running gear is original. All the steering and suspension parts are tight and straight. Frame is perfectly straight.
The engine is very clean, only has a minor rear main seal leak, no where else. (just put a new water pump on)
Gas tank has been removed, cleaned and sealed. Has a new fuel sending unit, fuel lines, and filter.
Trans shift nicely no noises, clutch is good, rear end sounds good, no play in the pinion, nice clean gear oil, no bearing noise. Driveline u-joints and carrier bearing are in nice shape.
Has no power steering or power brakes as original. That is something I think I'd do if I was to keep it. Disc brake conversion and power steering.
Dash is not cut up although a previous owner moved the ignition key into one of the radio holes? Don't know why. There are some small screw holes in the dash, easy fix.
The driver's door is a bit rough. (see pix) Fixable but I think it would be more advantageous to just replace it. Passenger door is in really good, tight condition...closes nice and lines up great.
The tailgate is pretty much toast, dented pretty badly. $168 for a new one. Or another idea is to replace the whole bed with a 90s Chevy bed or anything else that has a similar body-line. Just need to take some measurements and go look around you local Pick & Pull/Pull & Save wrecking yard.
This is a project truck. But it is a perfect project for a high schooler to learn to do some body work, maybe put his newly learned welding skills to the test. All the while getting to drive it because it runs so well.
There is no reserve, high bid get the truck.
I bought it to do a custom-mod to it, but I decided I better finish my 23 Street Rod and 68 Firebird projects first. Kinda need the room in the shop for them so the truck has to go.
Buyer is responsible for picking up or transporting the truck. It is driveable if you want to drive it home. Although I don't know if I'd trust the current tires on a long trip. Fronts are pretty old and weather checked. rears are two different sizes. Might need to throw a decent used set on to drive any real distance.

Recharge Wrap-up: Chevy Volt promos, Audi e-gas partnership
Mon, Feb 29 2016GM is offering promotions on the 2017 Chevrolet Volt. As dealers receive the first shipments of the new model year of the Volt, the automaker is giving customers in certain areas (California, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maryland, Maine, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, and Vermont) $1,000 cash back on their purchase. GM Financial is also offering lease discounts for a limited time, and trade-ins may be eligible for even more money back. State and federal incentives could add up to make the new Volt quite the bargain for the right customer. Read more at Clean Technica. The UK's potential exit from the European Union could mean tighter emissions regulations, potentially even in the UK. While Britain has fought against the EU on stricter rules, the "Brexit" could leave officials in Brussels free to strengthen air quality laws. The UK, despite giving up its seat at the table, would still be beholden to some rules as a member of the European Economic Area free trade agreement. British voters vote on a referendum to leave the EU on June 23. Read more from Bloomberg Business. Daimler will refrain from investing in battery pack production with other automakers for the time being. Daimler CEO Dieter Zetsche cites an overabundance of battery production, saying, "Contrary to the expectation four or six years ago when everyone thought that the cells would be a rarity that could even be used as a tool of industrial policy, there is de facto a massive overcapacity in the market today and cells have become a commodity." Daimler recently shuttered its own lithium-ion battery production due to high costs and low demand. Read more from Automotive News. Audi is partnering with the Viessmann Group to increase e-gas production using a new biological process. Audi has been making the renewable fuel through a two-part process of electrolysis (splitting water into oxygen and hydrogen) and methanation (reacting hydrogen with CO2 to make synthetic methane). The new biological process uses microoganisms to absorb hydrogen and CO2 to make methane. The process requires lower temperature and pressure, and doesn't require high concentrations or purity of CO2. Read more in the press release below.
