This vehicle has been in my family since new and has been well cared for and adult driven.
I acquired this from my grandfather and do not currently have time to drive it nor a good place to park it. It needs paint and has minor rust typical of this series of GM vehicles. (heavy scale in drip rails and approximately 1/2" hole in bottom rear of front fender). I have most of the weather strip for this vehicle new in box for the new owner.
Vehicle needs a new motor for rear tailgate window.
Passenger side power window has weak/slow motor.

AC system was working fine about a year ago and the front bearing on the compressor went out. I have run it without the belt ever since to keep it from self destructing. A/C system was updated with new style R134 compatible hoses during 2008 rebuild. All HVAC parts are still in place.
Heater core has a slow drip and needs fixed if you plan to take this somewhere cold. The system is currently bypassed via control valve.
I have a clean Texas Title ready to sign over to the new owner upon payment. $1000 PayPal deposit due within 24 hours of winning auction. Cash balance required in person upon receipt of vehicle.
Vehicle is located in 77581 zip code for in person inspection prior to sale. Sale is as is where is with no warranty expressed or implied. Thanks for bidding.
