This is my new '97 40th ann. LC. She has 159,000 on the clock. I bought it from around the Minneapolis MN area from someone who buys and sells cars. He did not know much about it, or what all was on it. What I have found so far is:

Lockers, snorkle, Slee short bus with warn xp9.5 W/ synthetic rope looks brand new. hand throttle, Diff breather extension, PHH, Slee light harness, Slee center diff lock switch?, poly perfomance rear axels put on by dealer in may '08 (found that by carfax) Alpine IVA W505 DVD player, new sony speakers in all doors with amp. Clear marker lights, Exhaust, OME 850,863 lift, rear bumperetts removed

That is all I found so far but if anybody knows who built or the PO let me know. They did a good job and I might be missing something.(good or bad) The rig seems to be in good shape and well taken care of. It had a clean carfax and I called the dealer that did the latest work which was minor stuff. Has not been drivin much since '08 about 5000 miles.

few pics:(Sorry, I will try to take some better ones):doh:

Wow - nice find. Most mods are already done for you and with good stuff too it looks like!
 
lookin good mate. you got most of the accessories I want lol. mind me asking how you knew it was heavies? were the tags still on the springs?
 
Nice looking. Not much more you can add to that besides a bigger lift and bigger tires, but if you don't want that it is pretty much a turn key rig.
 
Sweet! That is one great looking truck :cheers:
 
I swear that is the same one I was bidding for on fleabay, but the seller ended the auction early. Nice score. Do you mind sharing how much you snagged it for?
 
Awesome find.
 
I'm from the Minneapolis area, who did you buy it from? I may be able to dig up some info, pretty small 80 community up here. Same model and color as mine so of course I'm going to say SUPER AWESOME RIG MAN!!! Lets see more pics!

That is the one from ebay, And I'll say It was 500 cheaper than the buy it now. But I had to drive 1750 miles to pick up.... well worth it
 
Is that Junks?

The guy lived in brooklyn park but he got it from a buddy who goes to auctions. The PO last name was Miguel from Willmar MN. Car fax said it has had 2 PO prior to the guy I bought it from.

Awesome deal. I would have only had to drive less than 1/3 that many miles. I shouldn't have snoozed. :popcorn:
 
Dude thats a sweet build at an even sweeter price !!! poly pro axles too. Now just look out for the Northeast rust if it sat outside but looks uber clean.
 
Nice rig..... now hook up with the local MS cruiser club.

Cottonland Cruisers........ Great folks!!!!
