Hard to say. I won't start looking seriously until this one is sold.

You need a 5 window GMC or Chebbie. I had a totally rust free "NEVER" rusted truck from a farm in Maine. Never saw road salt. Dirt floor barn kept. Put a paint job on it and that was all. Interior was 100% original. Hated to sell it but the guy bought it from whined for months over his decision and seeing other opportunities I let him have it back at cost plus improvements. He eventually did some really horrible things to it. How about a full red leather interior on a Juniper Green truck. 🤮

Sithot, my 5.9 24 valve I just put $60K or so in. Should run 12s. 2500 4X4 Quadcab. :eek: Probably going for new power with Mahle pistons and Carrillo rods, head studs, etc., etc. Why stop at this point? :o

@ 45PSI of boost... How long with the head bolts last? LOL!!!

You're crazier than I recall. :D

Here's my ex-'54 3100. Completely RUST FREE truck. Cab corners, all the usual suspects just like it left the factory. Fresh Juniper Green over a straight body.

The A/C was charged a couple of weeks ago, and—as they say in all the car ads—blows COLD.

Took some time to squash a couple of small bugs, and I'm now declaring it to be finished. I will clean it up a bit, do a few final touch-ups, and then start marketing it. Considering BaT, but we haven't agreed on a reserve yet.

The truck has been accepted by BaT. Lead time is around 3-4 weeks (or so they told me today).

Still waiting on BaT. Definitely a bit of promising what it takes to make the sale, and then reality sets in. Already more than 4 weeks waiting, and I'm going to guess I'm still 1-2 weeks away at best.
