This is one of the best looking square body pickups! The quality
blew me away too, so I had to buy it. It underwent a body off frame
restoration! Upgraded pro touring suspension, LS1 engine, plus an
overdrive automatic transmission. One word sums up this truck:
exquisite!
EXTERIOR: Take a look at this paint; it is literally a black
mirror! Absolutely laser straight, all the panels fit square and
flush. Totally fantastic! Very desirable short bed. The brushed
aluminum tailgate panel, emblems, bumper, trim, taillights,
moldings, grille, hood ornament, door handles etcetera have all
been replaced. The front and rear window were both replaced plus
all the rubber seals and fuzzy strips too. It's been tastefully
lowered and is sitting on custom made Billet Specialties aluminum
wheels that are 22". They are wrapped in custom made low profile
redline tires. What a cool setup, they absolutely make the
truck!
INTERIOR: The door jambs are painted slick just like the body.
Latches, weatherstrips, and sill plates all look like new. The tan
interior looks amazing against the black exterior. The door panels
were replaced and they also have switches for the power windows and
power door locks. The gauges might look stock at first glance, but
they are modern with digital readings too. Gauge bezel, vents,
knobs have all been replaced. The climate control is now a modern
unit with electronic slides. A digital stereo fits perfectly in the
factory hole and there are 6x9 speakers behind the seat. A
removable cup holder slides right in where the ashtray would be; so
that's a very handy option. The dash pad looks like new as well as
the carpet. The bench seat has been completely redone with fresh
velour upholstery and cushioning too. It also has shoulder belts.
Headliner, visors, and mirror all look like new also. Fresh deluxe
wheel on a tilt column rounds off the interior nicely. Oh, I forgot
to mention it has sound deadener under the carpeting. And even the
dome light works.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Check out the all aluminum LS1 engine! Turnkey
reliable performance! Clad in vintage looking Chevrolet script
valve covers, she is a real looker. Extra clean presentation with a
billet front runner serpentine system and a smooth firewall that
had the bulky heater box replaced with modern parts. It is equipped
with air conditioning, power steering, power brakes and cruise
control as well. Nice custom air intake and Baer billet master
cylinder too. A big aluminum radiator with dual electric fans keeps
the power plant cool and happy. The underside of the hood is
complete with insulation.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Pull down the tailgate and you will see nothing
but spotless, pristine, and clean metal covered in glossy Tuxedo
Black paint. It must have been hauling cotton balls and
pillows!
UNDERSIDE: Body off frame restoration with an underside so clean
you can eat off it! It's got a nice, lowered stance with a
c-notched frame and a flip kit. Up front has CPP upper and lower
tubular control arms plus lowering springs. All the steering and
suspension components are brand new plus staggered shocks in the
back. Custom dual exhaust system with Borla mufflers that sounds
great. New fuel tank. Disc brakes at all 4 wheels that have big
slotted and drilled rotors. Looking up at the motor it's in
beautiful condition and was paired with a very practical 4L60E
automatic overdrive electronic transmission. Everything under the
truck looks new. Equipped with 3.73 gears out back and
positraction. The frame and floors are all nicely painted and look
fresh.
SERVICE: Our shop manager thoroughly inspected this truck and we
repaired the reverse lights, attached a trim piece, and tightened
the driver door hinge. It was extremely dialed in when we purchased
it! Cruise with confidence!
I fell in love with this truck when I first saw it and needed to
have it. The square body trucks are only increasing in popularity
and value. A truly nostalgic and cool "up and comer" in the
collector vehicle market. Put this one on the top of your list,
this square body checks all the boxes!
For nearly 30 years, I, Jay Grams, have personally written the
highlights for almost every car in our collection. What I provide

vehicles. However, opinions can vary, and I strongly recommend a
personal inspection to form your own view. Our sales team is always
available to answer any questions you may have. One great option is
to request a personalized walk-around video, where we can showcase
the car and share our team's insights. **Our cars are displayed
within a museum setting. If you are interested in a specific
