I bought a beater work truck over the weekend .... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

It's an 83 and only has a measly 98,0000 miles !!

I got it for $875 and it runs great. Frame is ok, everything is pretty much original. I like that 700R4 tranny. Maybe it wasn't worth quite that much but then again, the bed is solid enough, I and haul some stuff with it and it drives well. Nice tailgate, nice newer chrome rear bumper.

The brakes are weird though, I press the pedal and it's hard to press, then it seems to grab the brakes and not want to let go all the way. Bad master cylinder?

Anyway, here is a pic.

I think I have truck fever now.
