Long story short: Had this rig since 2008, drove as my daily for 2 years then moved back home to Colorado for 6 months, and abruptly moved to Chicago, hence Cruiser has been in storage for the last 3 years. Last started up in January when I was back in town and ran fine (will need a carb adjustment and new batteries along with the usual freshening up. Truck is still garaged in Colorado and I've realized I won't move back anytime soon, thus am putting back on the market. Has a CA title (never changed plates when I got to CO) and has current California Non-Op registration.
First the bad: basically just some minor body stuff. Has some bondo on both fenders (previous owner), little bit on the front of the hood and I think a bit under the gunmetal on the quarters(havn't ever pulled it off or looked to closley). Additionally the body is rattlecan black, over the 3 year old rattle can camo which is over the stock forest green after a little sand down. Basically the rig is fully built mechanically and doesn't need anything further on that aspect. It's meant to be driven and not a trailer queen, but that siad it has a pretty respectable body, hardtop in good condition save for less than perfect seals, and hard half doors and full doors (not yet painted to match). I can get pictures or answer questions. Additionally there is one mechanical problem I'm aware of, the Ebrake is hydraulic (line-lock) and I believe a valve is sticking as at low speeds when your hard on the brakes the Ebrake has been wanting to stay on. Below is an incomplete parts list.

-Front disc conversion with willow calipers and slotted rotors.
-18 gallon main tank, and 22 gallon second fuel tank with electric Walboro? pumps.
-Gauges- stock speed/ fuel (switches over for both tanks), etc, tack on a GM steering column, 3 box with water, oil pressure and volts mounted up high on the dash.[/SIZE
Price is basically the motor and tranny build cost with the rest free, I just need to get some cash to pay down some loans. I can take more pics, just send your email. Don't know the mileage on the chassis, I think it's 110K. Motor was rebuilt by previous owner 20K ago, but I don't have receipts.
