The two pictures I have handy on my phone right now on my lunch break.

Trucks got 170 something on the odometer. Has been swapped to a 4L80E about 15,000 miles ago. In the last 10,000 miles it has gotten new bf goodrich tires. brakes. steering box and linkage, Bilstein shocks, belt, hoses, power steering pump, alternator,Etc.

All y'all know how I maintain my stuff and take care of it by now.

Day after Thanksgiving this one went down though. I assume the motor is junk as it is now knocking on Startup, has wildly fluctuating oil pressure and backfires through the throttle body and the exhaust under any kind of load other than idle. It comes with a good running 350 to replace the suspected bad one in it.

Also comes with tan bucket seats and console, diesel front bumper, and a bunch of spare parts.

Has hooker headers, high flow cat, 3 inch exhaust. 

Been dropped 2/4 with belltech hangers, spondles, and shackles. 

Truck has a camper shell, plastic drop in bed liner, Kenwood CD player with Bluetooth/infinity speakers/MTX sub and amp under the backseat, 17x8 Centerline web Wheels, rear sway bar, performance friction front brakes, ceramic tint on the windows, power windows door locks and cruise. all work just fine, heat blows hot AC blows cold. Trailer brake controller and wiring, hitch, backup camera, the list goes on. Really it needs a motor and driven. I'm just overwhelmed at this point and ready to move on from projects and old stuff.

To my knowledge, no accidents. No rust, but a patch on the drivers cab corner to replace rusty when I painted it in 2020. 

Im looking for 6500 to grm. 

For an extra grand I'll throw in a 70,000 MI 5.3 and 4l60 out of an 05 Silverado that comes with wiring accessories the entire cooling system electric fans and some swap parts

In reply to John Welsh :

It is. Absolutely tbe wrong timing to be a seller. 

If i don't get any traction here in the next week or two, ill put the engine in. Increase the asking price to stupid and deal with tax time Facebook marketplace.
