NH Parting out - 1987 V3500 Sierra

[JJorgensen52]

Just got this truck in - I'm using the complete driveline for converting my '72 GMC to 4x4 (that's motor, trans, t-case, axles, wheels/tires, springs and hangars, hydroboost, steering stuff). Everything else is up for grabs (except the roof lights and lenses, I'm keeping those )

The roof on this truck was replaced by a body shop about 5 years ago, as was the driver's door, from an '89 parts truck - tree fell on it during an ice storm. They did a good job. Both door shells are good, cab could be saved but needs outer floors, cab corners, both rockers (they have been done just not correctly and are rusting again). Also missing driver's window.

Some of the stuff I have listed local on CL, prices:
Doors - SOLD
Hood - $80
Grille - SOLD
Core Support - Srapped
Front Bumper - $40
Dump Body (complete electric/hydraulic) - SOLD

More parts: (pictures on page 3)
Stainless grill trim - 4 pieces, includes most clips and trim nuts - $40
Front lighting harness - $25
Front marker lamps (GMC style) - $15/pair
Grille-bumper filler - $15
Cowl - $20
Hood (one small dent) - $50
Washer fluid reservoir with pump - $10
Radiator (no trans cooler) - $50
Radiator upper mounts - $5
Hood latch - $10
Dash bezel (one broken tab, lower right corner) - $15
Under column panel / trim (cracked tab) - $10

All prices OBO. Anything else you want, post up and I'll see what condition is and give a price.

What shape is the dash bezel and seatbelts in? I need that interior color. Pics?
Thanks

Dash bezel looked okay, the pad is trashed. Seatbelts are tan, I believe the seat is also under the cover. Will snap a few pictures when it's light out in the morning, I get home after dark tonight.

[B_derK20]

Ok thanks. Take some pics of the gauge cluster also if you don't mind. I might be interested in that too.

[Maynard]

When you're under the cover looking at the seat, will you please take a look at the head rests and post a picture? Thanks.

[JJorgensen52]

Photos requested:
The seat is okay, it's got some cracking in the vinyl but nothing terrible


Headrests





seat belts aren't great either. Springs are weak and the plastic is a bit ratty




gauge cluster/bezel


And skidplate underneath for B_derk20

Does that thing have a hydraulic dump body on it? if so id would like a price on the entire set up for the hydraulics cylinder pump etc

Strictly piston/hydraulics/lines, or the whole bed/subframe as well?

[old Rusty C10]

Im thinking of purchasing a 78 c60 former fire truck and creating a heavy hauler with a dually pickup bed on the back end Id like to make the dually have dumping ability so the whole system minus on your truck minue the bed body

Probably $450 plus s&H but that thing is big and heavy so that might be prohibitive.

I don't think the headrests will work for me, but I'll see if I can figure a way. Trying to add some to a cloth covered bench seat on a 1984 Suburban. It;s vinyl accents are a different color, too. How much in case I get adventurous?

I think I could work with the outer position only seat belts if B derk20 passes on them. Tell me how much if that happens.

Are the GMC letters from the grille in good condition with solid paint coverage? How much for those?

Thanks.

[B_derK20]

Price on the bezel? Shipped to 81503. I'll pass on the belts since mine are in the same condition. I know you are keeping the drivetrain but if you ever decided to part with that skid plate please let me know.

[old Rusty C10]

ok you are in NH so that prolly an overnight trip from NJ which is completely doable for me. If you are ok with it I would prolly take the ride up there and get it in person. I have not yet made the deal on the truck this would go on yet.. Id like to be first in line on this set up.. and if possible can you give me about a week to see if I can score the truck?

[mainermikeyd]

If the cab doesn't sell complete I'd be interested in just the roof I've already done my floor and rocker repairs

$50 shipped for the headrests, and the seatbelts I'd say $30 for but I'm not 100% sure I can get them off the cab floor - I will look into that.

GMC letters certainly look to be in good shape, I will grab a better photo for you tomorrow. $20 shipped.

I can do - it's for sale local on CL as a unit but there hasn't been much interest so I expect it won't go anyplace.

I suspect that's about all it's good for - I'm not going to hang onto it too long so I'll keep you in mind.

As it turns out this grill is a single piece, the letters aren't removeable

Will do. $75 shipped on the bezel

[Maynard]

I learned the same thing about the grille letters.

I'm not adventurous enough on the headrests at $50.

I can make it a little easier on the seat belts if you can simply remove the outside belts with the retractors. I realize I already have the inner belts in the right color. See how that works for you and the price for just those.

Thanks.

I will check if they'll come free in the morning, provided it stops snowing.

B_DerK20 - PM replied.

Hope it stopped snowing.

I just took a close look at the area where I want to install the belts. I'm trying to replace single retractor lap belts with double retractor three point belts. I'm not sure belts from a front seat will work. I'm sure belts like the ones on the front seat of this Suburban won't fit in the space.

Before you go to any more trouble, could you measure the plastic housing dimensions? I'm talking about the outboard ones, next to the door.

I'm posting elsewhere to see if anybody can show us a picture of the dealer-installed rear shoulder belts.

Thanks.

How about bare frame? Like one for my 74 k10 to become 74 k30 so when i get... Adventurous... It can handle it.

Sure, I'd do that once I get it down to a bare frame. It's a 135" wheelbase if I remember right. Come back in a couple weeks, once I've got it stripped I'll give you a price
