This is a discussion on 1978 Chevy 3/4 ton w/ Western 7.5 plow ( will sell plow seperate ) Mid-Michigan 48625 within the Chevy Trucks For Sale forums, part of the For-Sale category; 1978 3/4 ton 350 C.I. 4bbl. 3 speed auto. I'm told it has a bulletproof transfer case. Front hub lockouts. ...
1978 3/4 ton 350 C.I. 4bbl. 3 speed auto. I'm told it has a bulletproof transfer case. Front hub lockouts. 4x4 works fine.
New parts are:
Fuel tank ( $200 installed )
4bbl carb Remanufactured $190 ( last Aug )
dual batteries $150 ( 1 year old now )
Plow is a Western cable type 7.5
New electric motor and fliud pump ( $260 for parts )
Works great!
Truck starts no problem ( just gotta pump it, if it sets a day ). Warms up and starts to backfire.
When I bought it, the guy said it needed a brakeline replaced. We put fluid in it, so I could drive it home 30 miles. I never bothered to fix it, because it was a yard truck.
Loud exhaust. 1 muffler fell off. Again, yard truck so I didnt bother to replace it.
My health isn't up to working on it, so I bought a new plow for my new truck and selling this. It hasnt been on the road for the 3 years I have owned it ( plowed my drive only ).
$1000 firm for both truck and plow setup.
I will seperate the plow..$600 and you come take the plow stuff off.
Please dont try to lowball me. I have invested about $800 in parts, in the last year or so.
Video of the truck, with motor running. I show the new carb and the 2 new batteries ( avi, 20meg ):

The program I was using to convert, sped the video up about 2x speed.
