pffff good luck with that (boom03)
The truck's a GMC, 350, 5 speed, reg cab, long bed, open dif, 2wd, 308k miles. The underside is not as good as I remember, but everything looks solid. No rust holes, except maybe the passenger door. I was in it once (the bed of it, lol), the last time it was run, and it pulled freakin hard for what it's been through, I had no idea it had that many miles. It's got a bed liner, which is cool, since I'll definitely be using that. The biggest negative is the interior should just get ripped out and burned. My friend's dad smoked constantly in it, and it's just a total loss. I guess there was some leaking that got in it, so it looks a bit moldy or something, too. If I got it, I'd just rip out the carpets and spray some rubberized bed liner on the floor, and get a new bench seat and clean all of the plastic with ammonia or something. It'd take some work cleaning, along with putting the exhaust back on, and the air box. He mentioned it might need a head gasket because there's oil on the outside of the engine on one half (driver's side), but said the oil wasn't milky and there wasn't oil in the coolant, so if it's just a small leak I wouldn't be super worried about it. He hadn't considered selling it, so he didn't have a price in mind, but he said 500$ considering the work it needed. As a small project and an opportunity to get a solid truck at a heck of a price from a single owner that I know, I'm going to think about it pretty seriously.
