I am selling this 1966 Chevrolet truck 1/2 ton long bed big window custom cab this week. I do not know if 58,000 miles is original or turned over, so assume it did turn over. It has its share of rust issues like they all do that are not restored: lower fenders, outer floor boards where they meet rockers, outer rockers, floor support brackets at front, inner fenders at ends, and some rust in bottoms of doors, esp on pass door and at door lower corners. All sheet metal is easily bought online as you know (every part of these trucks is available). The original 283 runs ok but smokes a bit. I rebuilt the carb w/ a kit but there is still a hesitation. The 2 speed POWERGLIDE trans does NOT WORK....it clicks to the positions w/ shifter but will not engage....so it needs looked into, either rebuilt or replaced. I have put in some new parts; new gas pedal and brake pedal pad, new heater underdash hoses, new windshield w/ new rubber, new door arm rests, new visors, new gas tank rubber filler pieces, cleaned out gas tank and put heat pad behind it, new fuel line from tank to carb, new air cleaner, new heater core and restored heater box, new cowl weatherstrip, new aluminum radiator, new hoses and belt, new thermostat, flushed block w/ new coolant, and new battery and cables. It has no spare tire, and just 2 original blue rims. Tires are shot. Brakes need rebuilt, so none right now. I have many new parts in boxes for the truck: new door weatherstrips, new back up lights w/ wiring harness, new tail light bezels and lenses, new axle bumpers, new black seat belts, new rear window rubber, new molding clips, new door bumpers, new jute padding for floors (no floor mat yet as could not find one), and new license plate frames. There is major slop in steering box, so that needs addressed including rebuilding front end for safety. I rebuilt all U joints + carrier bearing on the 2 piece driveshaft, so that is done. Rear end drained and new oil and gasket installed. It needs some work, but could be a daily driver w/ not too much invested. So for shipping, it WILL NOT DRIVE onto a trailer by itself, must be winched on transport. Please ignore the shipping on Ebay..this is by pickup in person or you hire a semi for transport at your cost. I can assist loading.
