Well, I've gotten a tonne of questions about my project truck, so I figured I'd post up an official for sale ad for it. Anyway, here are the specs:
4.3L Chevy motor (low KM's)
Marlin Crawler Chev adapter
W56 Toyota Transmission
Marlin Crawler dual transfer case adapter
Two stock Toyota transfer cases
Custom driveshafts
4.56 Gears
80 series front axle with electric locker
Rebuilt rear axle w/ detroit (IIRC)
Marfield CV's (IIRC)
Crossover steering setup
15x10", low ET steel wheels
33x14.5" boggers
8-10" lift w/ leaf springs all around (ridiculous amounts of flex)
ARB front bumper
Custom made steel rear bumper w/ tire swingout
Rear disc brake conversion
Brand new starter
Brand new power steering pump
Welded and reinforced frame
Stripped carpets/partially stripped interior (she's made to swim)
As you might think, with the thousands upon thousands upon thousands into the aftermarket parts and the A+ camo paint job on the truck (just joshing about the paint job, of course), her ideal role is to be a dedicated trail rig. If you're looking to make her street legal though, there would be a few things you may or may not need to do (depending on who you know). For starters, the gas tank, which is mounted in the very rear and is from an Astro van, is dented from where it hit a stump. The windshield has a crack or two in it and lastly, it needs a full rear brake overhaul. Either you could convert back to drums (I could put you in contact with someone that has a full rear set that they'd practically give away), or you could overhaul the disc setup.
I apologize if this seams blunt, but the price is $4500 firm. I could start by asking $6-7000 and then wait for the lowballs to roll in, or I could cut to the chase for you and put the truck up for the lowest price that I'll take and a price that's well below what this truck could be parted for. If you're seriously interested, don't hesitate to call and ask questions, or if you're not from Edmonton, feel free to email me and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.
Cheers,
Corey

. Things have been awesome up North, but I've been on my toes with school. Ah well. How goes things down south? How's your 'cruiser been treating you?
