I am just seeing what's out there . I don't need to sell or trade this. I have been wanting a older musclecar,hotrod or truck for a while. I have owned this almost 3 yrs. I bought this in Jan. 2010 as a bone stock 1 owner old man owned truck w/ 74,000 miles. I lowered it with a BellTech 2/4" lowering kit( 2" drop spindles, 4" drop shackles,hangers and Belltech shocks) then I pulled the motor and trans in summer of 2010. Then it sat until October of last year (2011) when I had bought all my parts, motor and trans for it. I sanded the entire frame and under carriage and painted it Satin Black. The entire drivetrain (motor,trans and rear) were either rebuilt or replaced.
Motor: Built by Roger's Performance in Hatboro,PA consists of:
355 SBC (350 bored .030 over) 2 bolt main. Has flat top pistons (hyperutectic) , Patriot Freedom aluminum heads (180CC intake runners, 64cc chambers) Comp. ratio is 9.8:1. Also has 1.6 Crane roller rockers. Cam is Speed Pro 222 dur. @ .050 447 lift (with 1.6 roller rockers specs are 224 dur and 476 lift). Has a nice lope but not too choppy. Edelbrock Performer RPM intake w/ 2" carb spacer. Holley 650 DP built by Avanti Performance. MSD HEI distributor and E3 Diamond fire spark plugs. Motor should make b/t 350-380 HP.
Trans was built by Dave Moore in Pennsauken ,NJ :
700 R4 built to handle up to 500 HP. All HD internal parts, Corvette servo and shift kit. Torque converter is custom 2200 stall built by Pat's Performance Converters.
Custom built 3.5" driveshaft built by Associated Truck parts in Warrington,Pa
Rear 8.5" w/ Eaton True Trac posi unit , 3.73 Richmond gears, Alloy USA axles, new wheel studs, brakes shoes, wheel cylinders, and Stud Girdle cover. Built by JS Peformance in Hulmeville,Pa
Exhaust is 1 5/8" Hooker headers ceramic coated by Bonehead Performance in Warminster,Pa. Custom mandrel built 2.5" Y-pipe (built by JS Performance). 3" single Flowmaster exhaust(no catalytic converter). Truck is inspected as emissions exempt.
Other parts on truck (not all of them):
Champion 3 core aluminum radiator with dual electic fans, Derale thermastic electric fan switch, Autometer and Summit Racing gauges, Hurst Line lock, Quick Fuel fuel pressure Regulator, Caltrac Traction Bars, Air Lift Air bags w/ gauge and compressor for towing, Hidden hitch , Moroso oil pan, Canton racing timing cover, Proform Tall (GM Performance (slanted) Valve covers, Trans cooler and much more.
Interior has new black carpet and factory bench seat reupholstered in Black vinyl and Coffe bean tweed by Kramer's Auto top shop in Feasterville,Pa
Just put on new Raybestos ceramic front beake pads and Summit racing slotted/drilled brake rotors last week (less than 100 miles).
Also brand new General Grabber HTS tires 22/65/17 front and 265/65/17 in rear (less than 100 miles). Brand new 17" wheels by ShowWheels USA (Thrashstars) 17x7 in front and 17x8 in rear (less than 100 miles)
Truck was built for cruising locally and highway, occasional track time (has not been to track yet) and occasional towing. (have not towed with yet).
It only has 2200 miles on Resto and is 100 % reliable. could be driven everday.
95% work done by JS Performance in Hulmeville,Pa . Other 5% done by Foxwood Service Center in Somerset, NJ.
Truck is basically done only needing a headliner/sunvisors redone and stereo hooked up (which I have) for interior to be done. Needs no mechanical work other than Speedo to be recalibrated (off by 8-10 mph).
Body is in excellent shape. No rust. still has original paint. Couple of dings and minor scratches. only body mod done was a steel roll pan. This is probably one of the cleanest 2wd trucks of this era you will find. All worked done by high quality shops using high quality parts. No cheap parts put on this. I had it built to last a long time.
looking to trade for an older muscle car or truck, hot rod or street rod. I will also trade for a very clean low mile LT1 or LS1 powered car. I iwll trade down if car/truck is clean w/ cash or equal trade. I have 18k invested if not more in this. have almost all receipts. Trade value is $12,000 ( I feel that's fair considering what I have in it).
No boat, quad or motorcycle trades please. I don't want any projetcts. I want a running and driving car/truck.
Truck is currently inspected until Jan 2013
Any questions PM me
email pics of trades
more pics coming soon
I have some pics of the build too.
