This is a nice looking ride I know the 2wd are hard to come by and a GMC also might be what someone is looking for.

Wow, looks like a good deal. How do I convince my wife I need this dispite the ever increasing credit card bill, daycare expense, gas, insurance...

Sent him an email asking for more info & pics.

Tell her it will save gas because it is 2wd!

Answer - You don't, just buy it

They sent me some pictures. The interior needs a lot of work...

It does look good topless, I'd drive it.................................right after swaping the front end to a chebby one

FRENCHBLUE72 · 03-12-2006, 10:45 AM

Looks pretty clean with the exception of the interior..

bouncytruck · 03-12-2006, 12:43 PM

They sent me a whole bunch more pictures late last night. I haven't had time to look through them yet. They said they have the original front seats, but they aren't in the truck. They also said that they have had a lot of calls and someone is going to look at it today.

hotrodhomi · 03-12-2006, 02:08 PM

He told me that the engine smokes. I think it needs a lot of work.

Look at that rear coil. That thing must ride like crap.

bouncytruck · 03-12-2006, 10:51 PM

I got those pics too. I'm not sure what is going on with those coils. I also noticed the inner fenders were missing. The gal said the front had air bags. Not sure why the front would be bagged and not the rear.

71swb4x4 · 03-12-2006, 10:54 PM

In the picture the black line looks like an air line. I'll bet the red one is a power wire for the compressor. Neither are run very well, could be big trouble!
