i don't know why someone would've started stripping that nice truck of its engine, wheels, steering column when the truck is such nice condition. Sure he may have needed the money, but, it is so much harder to sell a stripped truck, and for so much less money----he didn't know you'd come along who has 3 of everything.  :D

Sure looks good in the pictures.  I'm sure it will be even nicer by the time you get finished with it.

Mind if I ask how much lighter your wallet is?
77 c-10 - 77 400 86 700r4 "Emmy"
83 citation - 2.5L Four on the Floor!
88 sierra - reman 350 700r4 "Eleanor"
All normal practicality and rational money handling goes out of the window when it comes to my truck.

$1K for a solid shortbed 4x4 is a steal around here.
The cab alone is worth that.
I've got a spare visor if you need one.

lol
i bet he doesn't have 3 of those  ;D

if he did, the first use of his new pickup would be to load the visors on it and send 'em to the junkyard.

Let me guess, it has a 350TBI,700R4,and a 208,basically everything you need to fix the 83?
If you could resist the urge to get carried away (as most projects do) you could have a rust free shortbed 4x4 for $1100 and your labor.
Can't wait to see this one get done.

It does however the trans is no good, and the engine is already promised to someone else. It has the 91 Suburban nose conversion done to it. I bought it for parts only.
