Just seeing if there's any interest.

My grandpa bought the truck new off the lot in cash, put 30,000 miles on it and sold it to my mom in '07. My mom drove it until March '10 and sold it to me with 42,000 miles. I have ALL the receipts for work done to the truck while they've owned it - mostly regular maintenance and such. I do my own oil changes/etc so they stop after I bought it, though.

1999 Chevy Silverado ECSB 1500
~73,000 original miles (but it's my DD)
4.3L V6, 4L60E
18" Nissan Titans w/ Falken Ziex 265/60/18s (30.5", ~7000 miles)
BlackBear Tune (87 octane, 80% TM removed, shift points moderately firmed)
Modded TB (cup delete)
Class III Receiver/Hitch
Kicker KS650 6.5" Speakers
Sony Headunit
Bazooka 10" Sub (one of the tubes - yes, they aren't that great, but it was free and did help)
Silencer Deleted, Drop in DIY "CAI"
Flowmaster 40
Oil change and filter, spark plugs, wires, distributor cap/rotor, fuel filter, air filter, and seafoamed last 1000 miles.


The bad:

1) I hit a deer (~20mph -- braked, but no cigar). The bumper has a small dent and is sagging a little. The bumper brackets AREN'T bent. It was a baby and didn't do much, thankfully.

2) Bowtie on the grill is ugly (none of the pictures show it, I just got it and painted it yesterday). Deer cracked my original so I got a new one, ordered color matched paint in a spray can ... and it didn't match at all. It's a light silver and it didn't stick right. I'm keeping my eyes peeled for a true metallic gray to repaint it, and it'll probably be done before anyone see's the truck but I figure point it out just in case.

3) The A/C is broken. I know the part it needs (the black box by the passenger's feat - the H/C selector thingy) and unless it moves quickly, it'll be fixed.

4) The paint has some detailing done by tree branches. Nothing severe (not past clear coat) and could possibly be buffed out but I haven't tried because I planned on a color change. It still shines and is still in good shape overall though, just not perfect.

5) Exhaust leak. It's not too bad but it is noticeable if you're up front and listening for it.

6) The truck is not in my name. Since I'm 19, insurance is cheaper for me to put it in my mom's name and for me to pay the difference - even though I've got a squeaky clean driving record. It's not a big deal, because she has no issues signing it to me - but it's just an extra step I need to do and I figure I'd point it out. If you need a vehicle tomorrow, no can do.

KBB, depending on condition and sale type, is anywhere from $4000 to $8000. Reason why I have no idea it's worth and why I wanna see what I could realistically expect before I decide to sell or not.

Trade offers are cool, but nothing older than 20 years old, I want something 4x4, and I don't mind some issues but I don't want a project.
