Finally got another 80!

[Boone]

Since my first 80 was totaled when a driver who was not paying attention hit me i have been driving a beater around and looking for a nice LC that would satisfy me.

Picked this one up yesterday.

Its a 97 with 187k, nothing special, completely stock, and in AWESOME shape.
No lockers but thats not a big deal to me.
Absolutely everything works (other than the "D" light but who cares)

Plan on building it about the same as the last one i had. I still have the box system so thats cool

Here are some pics!!!!

Sorry for the crappy cell pics but its all i had on me and its too dam cold to get the camera out and worry about good ones.

Nice find. How much $$?

And we need pics of the box system.

Congrats! What color is this one?

Looks like sage 40th with no decals (repaint?)

For the box system just search my old posts you can see it there and see my old 80.

Jfz i'm not sure what color it is, i would call it champagne. Does the VIN tell the color?

Nice, You didn't get the rest of the goodies off of the old one did you?

 

[Boone]

Yep i got everything but the springs which i got for cheap anyway, it honestly wasnt worth the money i put into em to get them back off. Everything else i have though. Plus (if not most importantly) even more info than i had when i owned th last 80.

Cheers everyone for all the good knowledge.

Nice. Now you need to update your sig.

 

[Boone]

Arndog, thanks for pointing that out.
Just to reiterate a question in a previos post... Can you tell what color your truck is by "decoding" the VIN?

Boone, I know what you mean about cold. I was up in your area ( Newland) from Thurs. til Sunday. It was 2 degrees when we got up Sunday. Nice ride...did you buy it local? What did you have to pay? Thanks

Looks like Champagne to me too. That's the color I have but in the LX 450 flavor. Congrats!

I found the truck in South Carolina from a private seller.

Thanks for all the replies... I have a set of 3rd rows and running boards for sale if anyone is looking for some.

Ed, hope you get home alright.
