After reading some of the horror stories about trucks from GL, I was a bit nervous. I won my auction in early Feb, sight unseen, and the shipper delivered it on on 3/13. EUC took 15 days (first one)! All the pics on GL looked good including a new drivers side door. Upon delivery I could see minor forklift damage on the passenger door and a small dent in the drive shaft. The drivers door, however was destroyed. The truck driver said a tractor trailer must have backed into it overnight. After a bit of discussion we agreed on a price to cover damages, put new batteries in, checked the oil and fired it right up. Awesome! It runs great, and starts first time. I have done the starter relay already. Replaced the door(with a blue one). The glow plug relay was the new can style already. The CDR valve is shiney and new. I have new AC60G's to install. I have done the body work and filled in the holes in the box from the antenna brackets. Complete oil service and air filter. There are no leaks or puddles under it, everything works. It has 36,570 miles on it. There is no rust or rot. The frame is still black, not rusty. I have had a few other chevy trucks of this type and none have ever been this nice. I am one of the lucky 1st time cucv owners I think.
It has troop seats and a cargo cover, and a set of aluminum shelves with a big electrical box, maybe for radios? I will probably sell those items.
Someone stole the D-rings from the back bumper, that makes me mad but they should be easy to replace locally.
I have to go over the front end and test drive it at speed but I am waiting on my title from GL.
I still have to put a lift on and 37in tires, but its coming along nicely. I can't believe how economical this thing will be for me, considering what I paid, insurance, and durability(I work in a rock quarry). Thanks to everyone one this site for all the documentation on these things!
