Exclamation 88+97 Chevy 2500 Reg Cab Project completed...anyone interested?
Hello fellow FSC members! I want to get a feel for interest in my 88 chevy truck. I havent decided yet if I want to let the girl go, but wanted to get an idea if anyone would be interested.

Ive been working on her for 4years and just got it done roughly 6 months ago. I have $7000 in her including the new wheels and tires. The only reason im selling it is because I need to get some cash for an engagement ring. I know I wont get what I have in the truck but if you are interested let me know and I will email some pictures. Please send emails to williambuckjr@gmail.com

Info about the truck

Black 1988 2500 Regular cab 8ft bed 4x4 5 speed
350 engine with Headman longtube headers, 650 Carter AFB, Comp cams Xtreme performance cam
4.10 gears with posi

-Front Brakes/Rotors

Other parts/info:
-Interior swap from 97 including guage cluster, power windows & door locks, bucket seats with console; still needs newer steering wheel

-Frame was sandblasted and primer/painted

-Added 7 rear leafs to each side for the ability to haul more weight in the bed

-Rear window has been tinted, side windows need tinted (have pre-cut tint for them)

-Trailer brake controller with plug receptical

As for the performance of the truck, it rides and handles pretty smooth. Its not exactly a race truck, but if you're looking for a nice truck I think its a good deal. When the truck is first started she smokes a little. I never took the engine apart, but believe it just needs a valve seal. Oil pressure is good, showing anywhere from 40-70psi. Ideally, the truck needs a big block, but never got around to putting one in. I also have a 700r4 with a 4x4 transfer case that I will throw in with the truck. This will make it easier if you want to make it an automatic.

If you have any other questions feel free to drop me an email.
