1982 Chevrolet Other Pickups Description

Located in Marana - 20 miles west of Tucson.
All the hard work is done - just needs finishing. Senior owner is no longer ambulatory and has to give up his last and best project!
Body;
Very solid - doors, hood, tailgate open and close smoothly and firmly. Good bones - no rust - stored under cover while working on it last 5 years. LOWERED 3 inches all around! FRAME OFF RESTORATION done 18 months ago - all new body bushings - Disc brakes. Old school 15 inch mag wheels with decent tires. 75K miles on the body. Needs only windshield and rear shocks to finish - ready for paint. Have $500 worth of metallic paint available - nice shade of gold.
Interior;
All there. Needs new carpet - some new foam rubber and cover for the bench seat or buckets available - some detail work and speakers on the door panels - new cover for the dash. Has power windows and AC (needs 2 compressor lines and a charge).
Drive-train;
454 BIG BLOCK AND TURBO 400 tranny out of a wrecked 1973 motorhome - personally owned, like new with only 6000 miles. All serpentine belt - new Edelbrock carb, Offenhauser manifold, custom aluminum valve covers and headers with new separate mufflers and exhaust for a nice growl with no leaks! Needs carb and timing adjusted but still runs strong and powerful and is drivable! If you know what this is then you know what kind of tremendous power and torque you’ll have and how much more you can easily get with a few tweaks!
ALL the hard work is DONE! This is a very easy to finish project!!!!
My name is Ben. I am the owner’s cousin and I am handling selling all his vehicles and tools and parts, etc. Give me a call between 9 am and 9 pm at 619 366 3260 to come take a look. If you have questions I can get him on the phone. My cousin has set a very reasonable, no haggle price of $5850 for a quick sale. If you know these trucks and this drive-train and what it takes to install it properly and what it takes to do a frame off restoration then you know this is a bargain price! FIRST one here with the cash gets a great deal! If you are searching for a truck like this from another state you can send the $ and arrange transport and I will get it onto the truck! I have a clean notarized title ready.
