Here's an awesome truck to consider for your garage. It has a lot
going for it, and has covered less than 4k miles since the body-off
restoration. It's imposing size and bright green metallic paint
make it hard to miss this clean truck. This truck offers a built
and detailed 350ci crate engine at the front, a tidy interior with
a few tasteful aftermarket components, and that squarebody Chevy
truck appeal is hard to pass up. During the process of the recent
restoration, the body was re-painted in the original Shamrock Green
color. A combination of chrome trim and white pinstripes break up
the big green body panels, and a cowl induction decal on the hood
gives a nod to a classic muscle car. The truck sits a bit higher
than the stock ride height thanks to a 4 Skyjacker lift, and a set
of 35 Mickey Thompson tires wrapped around 15 chrome deep dish
wheels. An aftermarket badgeless grille, exterior cab lights,
Rhino-Lined bed, and the cowl hood are other exterior highlights.
The paint shows nicely with depth and even gloss, and body panels
line up as they should. The tidy interior is now finished in black,
although it left the factory trimmed in green. The interior
includes a black bench seat, matching black door panels, column
shift, tilt wheel, and 4x4 selector lever. A green metallic painted
lower dash portion adds a little color to an otherwise dark
interior. Other features of the interior are a grouping of
AutoMeter gauges mounted in a custom panel in place of the usual
gauge cluster, a sliding rear window, and a JVC stereo mounted on
the headliner. Under the hood is a crate 350ci V8 mated to a TH350
automatic transmission. Engine highlights are a 4 bbl carburetor,
MSD Ignition, headers, and chrome valve covers. Warn front axle
lockouts work with the 4x4 system to help provide the traction you
need in any situation. The underside of the truck is very clean and
you can see that the frame and many other supporting suspension
pieces have been powder coated in black. Custom exhaust ends in
turn down tips just before the rear bumper. Also worth mentioning
is that a pair of new gas tanks have also been installed. Be sure
