I am the third owner of this truck. I purchased the car October 10, 998 with 125,000 miles. I replaced the engine June 6, 999 because there was a crack in the block. Since that time, have put on less than 14,000 miles. I have kept the truck mechanically maintained and I have a stack of receipts about 1" thick to prove it. I had the seats and dashboard recovered locally by S&S Upholstery but the front seat bottoms are beginning to fail.

This is a beast or a truck. In low gear you can pull a huge load. It has a 4.10 rear axle ratio and a 14 bolt rear axle. Most of these trucks were ordered with the biggest engine (454) but this one is unique having a 350. This vintage comes on a one (1) ton chassis and running gear. Plan to get about 12 mpg.

Excellent for restoration, eavy hauling or just plain trucking.
