My cousin is selling his truck. He's a member here but didn't have the time to list it so I did it for 'em. Here's his info. on it. This is all HIS information. I just copied and pasted. I did include several pics below this initial post.
1986 Chevy 4x4. Everything works like new or better except for cruise control and A/C. It has a very strong freshly rebuilt 305 V8. It has automatic locking hubs with 700r4 auto trans. and np208 transfer case. It has 134,638 original miles on the odometer, and less than 5,000 on the entire drivetrain. I have owned this truck for about 5 years and am the third owner. This truck has been built practically from the ground up by me, and would make someone a great truck with a little work. I am looking for another project, so this one must go! Lets' start with the good stuff.
33x12.50 all terrains on stock steel rims with 50-75% tread left. They have evidence of some dryrot, but hold air and are still perfectly balanced. 35s' will fit on this truck as it sits with no rubbing. I had 35s' on it up until a few weeks ago. 5.0 liter v8(305) with less than 5000 miles since complete teardown and rebuild. Starts easily and runs great. I installed new crank, pistons, rods, all bearings and rings, melling oil pump, new fuel pump, aftermarket mild rv cam, lifters and pushrods. New timing gear and chain. Also installed Flowtech long tube headers. Engine also has rebuilt rochester 4 bbl. quadrajet and chrome valve covers, timing cover and air breather. I basically replaced everything except the block and heads when I rebuilt the motor. Internals of motor are in better shape now than it was when it rolled off the assembly line in 86'. Motor runs very strong with no smoke, pulls more like a 350 than a 305. Only problem with motor is valve covers seep a little oil, which is the case with most aftermarket chrome covers.New valve cover gaskets would fix this, but they don't leak enough to have to add any oil between scheduled changes so I never bothered. New battery still under warranty from NAPA, and new coolant overflow tank.Truck also has a rebuilt 700r4. Tranny shifts fine with no leaks. NP208 Transfer case and tranny were also rebuilt right after engine. The entire drivetrain on this truck is just getting broke in good. The outside of the truck has been debadged, and coated with 3 thin coats of dupont duplicolor truckbed liner. I did this to prevent any rust after I sanded and primed the whole outside of truck with 4 coats of Dupont flat black primer. From a distance, it looks like flat black paint until you run your hand across it and feel a slight rough texture. The bedliner coating can easily be smoothed out and painted over if you wish, just think of it as a high build primer surfacer. I made sure to spray it on smooth so it does not have a wavy texture, it just feels a little rough. Only part of the truck that hasn't been bedlined is the interior of the bed. Inside of bed has some dings and surface rust but is in very good shape for its' age. It has a heavy rubber bed mat in the bottom, and the paint underneath looks almost new. Truck also has sliding rear window, and factory rubber floor mat instead of carpet. Aftermarket tubular steel grill in front and good solid bumpers with a heavy duty tow hitch on the back.
Now for the bad stuff, the radiator leaks a little, inner fenders have some rust through, Interior needs some work, but it is all original. Dash pad is cracked up, seat is torn on drivers side, but there is a seat cover over it. 2 rusted through spots on driver side cab rocker/step. I did not have time to work on the interior. This truck is a Scottsdale, so it did come with cruise control and A/C but neither works anymore. Not sure about cruise, may just be a vacuum line,but the only thing wrong with a/c is it needs a compressor and lines. All other components for the a/c are still there. Heat works great though. The windshield is cracked in the middle but will still pass inspection in N.C.. Truck needs an exhaust system. The only thing it has now is headers only, it needs mufflers and tailpipes.Truck is very loud like this. Very little surface rust underneath, mainly on springs and suspension components. The chassis still looks good with the original factory undercoating. The body is very straight, with no major dents or rust and truck has never been wrecked.
Due to it not having an exhaust system and leaky radiator, I would recommend that you tow it if you have to travel very far.
$2,000 OBO or I would consider a partial or even trade for a 67-72 Chevy/GMC 2wd truck in decent shape.
This truck would be a great daily driver or weekend mud machine with a new radiator and exhaust system.. It is very solid and runs and drives fine. I have tried to describe it very accurately, and have quite a few pictures listed. The truck is probably in better shape than I described, but I just want to make sure you know every little detail about it. It is being sold as is with no warranty expressed or implied. If you have any questions feel free to contact me at 252-287-8439. Thanks a lot guys.
