'72 SWB Big Block F/S - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Purs · 10-27-2004, 10:11 PM

'72 high optioned Big Block truck for sale (not mine). I can't verify whether or not it was an original big block truck (believe me, I tried) because the glovebox sticker is gone. It has a non original (obvisously) 454 and Turbo 400. No idea how many miles on the engine or tranny. Looks like an original non restored or more likely an older restoration on the interior. A/C worked good when I last drove the truck. 3.73 rear end. This is not my truck. I traded it to my cousin 2 1/2 years ago for the '68 Chevelle I currently have. He is in the military with a family and gas is killing him. I would buy it back in a heartbeat but when I mentioned it to my wife she hit the roof...

Don't know the price but would figure more that 5k and less than 10k. Call Kory at 910-987-5666 (corrected!) The truck is located in the eastern US. Good luck.

that is a nice ride!!! I wish it had the original bb in it though.....

Purs · 10-27-2004, 11:49 PM

I've got an original '72 402 that I'd make you a deal on, but I highly doubt it it would be the one that came out of this truck....

Purs · 10-28-2004, 08:18 PM

bump.

Purs · 10-29-2004, 12:52 PM

This is a nice truck. you can email me for more pics if you're interested. bpursley@esc14.net

**'70_402** · 10-29-2004, 03:41 PM

where in texas are you located?

Purs · 10-29-2004, 03:53 PM

I'm near Abilene, but the truck is located in the Eastern Part of the US now. My cousin is in the military and got stationed somewhere out East. I'm just trying to help him out. It's possible he could drive the truck back next time he's on "leave."

gmman456 · 10-30-2004, 02:26 AM

between 5 and 10 is a pretty big spread.Any closer idea what he would let it go for? 6,7,8,?

Purs · 10-30-2004, 04:29 AM

Sorry, I can't put a price on other people's things. I was just trying to give people a ballpark idea what the truck would cost. The best thing would be to call him.

Purs · 10-31-2004, 06:12 PM

ttt

Purs · 11-06-2004, 10:05 PM

OK, talked to the owner tonight and he said 6k. I've got plenty of pics to send if anyone is interested. The number is in the first post.

pickupman · 11-06-2004, 10:52 PM

You wouldn't know where out here in the east he is do you. Just wondering how close he might be to me if it was close enough for me to look at?

Purs · 11-06-2004, 11:24 PM

Is there a military base near Fayettville, NC? I'm pretty sure it's in that area.

pickupman · 11-07-2004, 12:50 AM

That is probably close enough, could you send me some more of the pictures you have.
Thanks, Bill

e-mail me pics please. thexman10@aol.com
When is he on leave next? Asking because I'm in Texas and would be curious if he'd drive it back down here.

71-longbed · 11-07-2004, 03:58 PM

Is that a 2wd .. if so what tire size are you running ??

Purs · 11-07-2004, 09:13 PM

255/70/15's all the way around.

Purs · 11-08-2004, 03:00 PM

I apologize to anyone that tried to call Kory at the number listed above. It is the wrong number by one digit. Here is the correct number: 910-987-5666

Deuce · 01-05-2005, 07:05 PM

Did he sell this truck yet??

Purs · 01-05-2005, 07:34 PM

It sold about a month ago... and it had a Dana 60, not a 12 bolt. Man I wish I had that truck back.

Deuce · 01-05-2005, 07:37 PM

Did he sell it to a board member?? Looks like it's a nice truck.

soala70 · 01-05-2005, 08:16 PM
