VIN2FTJW35L7GCA20661Odometer Reading87,800I assume that the mileage is 187800because it had a total engine rebuild and transmission rebuild. I doubt that it would need all of that at 87,800.
I will do my best to give you all the information you will need to make an informed decision.
I will not ship this truck so plan a trip to North Platte, NE to pick it up if you buy it.
This truck was a peach when I bought it, then I had a freak accident as I pulled an parked on the shoulder of a mountain road. The shoulder gave way and the truck slipped sideways flipped upside down and free fell 12 feet onto some boulders in a ravine, with me in it..... damn rough ride.
At the time of the wreck the engine was fresh with under 7,500 miles after a rebuild. The transmission was rebuilt at the same time. It has been driven 1,200 miles since the accident so the motor and transmission have very low miles.
In the accident the engine caught fire and it burned the carburater and distributor beyond repair.
I was 1,200 miles from home and the truck had to pull a 36 foot travel trailer home so I did a field repair. I adapted a 2bbl carb from a Mustang to fit the engine and replaced the distributor, the wiring was badly damaged so I re wired it enough to be safe.
I installed a brand new windshield, which still looks like new, and I drove it home, pulling the trailer the entire 1,200 miles and it ran ok.
So, when you buy the truck, you are buying a good motor and transmission plus many good parts. The engine components such as wires and maybe some ignition parts and carb will need work but the block bearings and heads are ok.
It can be repaired by the right person with the skills needed to repair the body.
It has no tailgate and has damaged or broken window glass. The gauges work ok and the interior shows weathering.
The body has many issues, rear fenders, cab, fenders.....Please, see pictures.

The grill is in decent shape.
The tires are old and one rear outside tire is punctured but it should roll up on a trailer.
It comes with a decent plastic pickup bed tool box.
I am selling it due to the fact that I do not have the skill or patience to get it into shape.
I think it would be a fantastic parts vehicle.
I will do my best to answer any questions.
