1976 SILVERADO 454 4 SPEED 4X4 GEAR VENDOR OVERDRIVE REBUILT ENGINE NEW PAINT
1976 Chevrolet C/K Pickup 2500 SILVERADO
THIS IS A KNOCKOUT TRUCK. MADE LIKE THE FACTORY SHOULD HAVE..... BUT TO MY KNOWLEDGE DIDNT. I LOOKED FOR A LONG TIME TO FIND A 3/4 4X4 454 TRUCK.. THIS WAS THE FIRST ONE I HAD SEEN...EVER....I WAS TOLD THEY WERE NOT OFFERED IN 76 ... THE TRUCK IS ROAD READY, NO ISSUES AT ALL. I DROVE A 500 MILE TRIP WITH ZERO ISSUES A MONTH AGO...
2ND OWNER OF TRUCK THAT BOUGHT FROM HIS FATHER IN LAW WHO BOUGHT IT NEW, nbsp;HAD ALL THE WORK DONE.
REBUILT 454 WITH 268 CAM. NEW CLUTCH, FLYWHEEL, RADIATOR, DUAL ELECTRIC FANS, AIR BAG OVERLOADS WITH SEPERATE AIR LINES, ELECTRONIC TRAILER BRAKE UNIT, CLASS 3 HITCH AND NEW WIRING.
FIRST CLASS PAINT JOB.. THE BED WAS TAKEN OFF, GLASS PULLED. DOOR JAMS, BEHIND SEAT, DASH ALL PAINTED CORRECTLY...VERY NICE JOB, NO OVERSPRAY ANYWHERE... NO RUNS IN THE PAINT ETC.
http://youtu.be/pLCf6PXMkXg FIRST VIDEO... I WILL POST MORE LATER...AFTER THEY UPLOAD...
DISC BRAKES STOP THE TRUCK EVENLY AND SMOOTHLY, NO SHUTTER, SHIMMING OR PULLING. STEERS SUPER EASY.
SHIFTS WITHOUT GRINDING, VERY SURE SHIFTS.
NO FRONT END NOISE, NO DRIVETRAIN NOISE, NO ISSUES.
THE GEAR VENDOR WAS THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS WITH THE PROFESSIONAL INSTALATION (JUST LOOK UP THE COST TO BUY ONE).... AND IT WORKS GREAT. THE TRUCK WILL CRUISE WITHOUT PUSHING IT ALL AT 85 MPH. YOU CAN SWITCH OFF OR ON...I GUESS ITS AN OVER OR UNDER OVERDRIVE..
THE MOTOR HAS PLENTY OF POWER... I MEAN PLENTY, ITS NOT A SLUG BY ANY MEANS. STRONG, NO SMOKE, NO TICKS, NO KNOCKS...NO ISSUES AT ALL. FIRES UP INSTANTLY WITH ELECTRIC CHOKE.. NO MESSING AROUND TO GET IT STARTED...ITS INSTANT EVERY TIME.
NEW ...CORRECT ... DUAL EXHAUST/ MUFFLERS.. NO LEAKS, NO EXHAUST SMELL ANYWHERE...EXCEPT OUT THE TAIL PIPES...SOUNDS JUST RIGHT.
NEW WINDSHIELD AND BACK GLASS, NEW FELT AROUND WINDOWS, NEW RUBBER AROUND GLASS, AND AROUND DOOR JAMS...VERY NICE...NOT SOME CHEAP SKATE MASK OFF AROUND THE NON METAL AND SPRAY IT BACK YARD JOB.
REBUILT TRANS AND TRANSFER CASE ABOUT 7000 MILES AGO, ENGINE HAS ABOUT 7000 MILES SINCE REBUILT AND INSTALLED AS WELL....
SPRAY IN BED LINER, AND MATCHING CANOPY, VINTAGE CORRECT, INCLUDED IN SALE. NICE FELT AND ALUMINUM BARS/SUPPORTS ON HEADLINER OF CANOPY WITH TINTED GLASS AND FULL SIZE SLIDING WINDOW SIDE GLASS........ LATCHES AND HAS KEY TO LOCK IT AS WELL.
TIRES ARE COOPER BRAND AND EXCELLENT. THE TRUCK CRUISES REALLY NICE AT 75-80 MPH
ORIGINAL CAPS AND WHEELS. HEAVY DUTY LOCK IN HUBS, NOT THE CHEAP ONES..SEE FRONT HUBS IN PHOTOS.
LOCKING GAS CAPS WITH KEYS.
SPARE SET OF KEYS.
RADIO HAS HOOKUPS FOR IPOD OR PHONE ETC ...THE DASH WAS NOT HACKED OR CUT.
THE ONLY TWO ISSUES WITH THE TRUCK ARE: IT COULD USE A NEW CARPET SET.. ..LIKELY ABOUT 150 BUCKS WITH INSTALATION...THIS ORG CARPET IS CLEAN BUT ITS TIRED....AS SEEN ON PASSENGER SIDE. THERE ARE VERY MINOR RUST BUBBLES BEHIND THE TIRES DOWN LOW, ONLY IN THE BACK, AND ITS VERY MINOR..COULD BE FIXED OR IGNORED..DEPENDING ON HOW OCD YOU ARE..... OTHER THAN THESE TWO ISSUES, THE TRUCK IS IN SPECTACULAR CONDITION. I WAS INTERUPPED TWICE WHEN VIDEO IT... IS IT FOR SALE, ETC ETC.
I HAVE A FEW VIDEOS OF THE TRUCK AND WILL HAVE THE LINKS AS I ADD THEM... LIKELY AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS DESCRIPTION.... THE WIND WAS BLOWING SO HARD THAT IT TAKES AWAY FROM THE SOUND OF THE TRUCK AND OVERALL VIDEO QUALITY.. BUT ITS A GOOD SHOWING OVERALL.
THE BUY IT NOW ($11, 19.76) REPRESENTS A FRACTION OF WHAT IT WOULD COST YOU TO BUILD A TRUCK LIKE THIS... FIND ONE FIRST, THEN TRY AND BUILD IT, TAKE A YEAR OR SO TO DO IT, MONEY, TIME ETC...
IF IT DOESNT SELL, I WILL PULL THE GEAR VENDOR AND SELL IT WITHOUT A RESERVE LATER... BUT IF YOU LOOK AT MY HISTORY, YOU WILL FIND THAT I SELL THINGS ALMOST ALWAYS ON THE FIRST LISTING. I DO NOT LIKE TO RELIST AND TRY TO GET EVERY LAST CENT OUT OF A VEHICLE.. I HAVE A HABBIT OF LOWERING THE BUY IT NOW PRICE AND RESERVE LONG BEFORE THE AUCTION IS OVER.. SOMETIMES PEOPLE HIT THE BUY IT NOW, SOMETIMES RESERVE GETS MET ..EITHER WAY.. THE RESERVE AT THE TIME OF THE/THIS LISTING IS VERY CLOSE TO THE BUY IT NOW BUT AS DAYS GO BY I USUALLY LOWER IT UNTIL IT GETS MET OR THE BUY IT NOW IS HIT....
I LIKE TO BE UPFRONT AND LET PEOPLE KNOW.. THAT IF THEY ARE SERIOUS, AND WANT WHAT IM SELLING.. DONT WAIT... OR GAMBLE.. IT WILL SELL, AND OFTEN TIMES, BEFORE THE END OF THE SALE... SOMETIMES THE DAY THE AUCTIONS STARTS....
YOU CAN FLY IN AND DRIVE HOME, OR IT CAN STAY HERE PROTECTED FROM THE ELEMENTS FOR A MONTH OR SO...
YOU CANT PAY FOR IT WHEN YOU COME, GO FOR A TEST DRIVE, KICK THE TIRES AND TRY TO NEGOTIATE THE PRICE... A PAYPAL DEPOSIT OF 500 AT A MINIMUM WHEN YOU BUY IT, AND THE BALANCE IN A FEW DAYS ETC...... IT JUST MAKES THING DIFFICULT OTHERWISE... IF I WANTED TO DEAL WITH A TYPICAL SALE .. I WOULD LIST IT ON CRAIGSLIST AND LET PEOPLE JOY RIDE IT, MAKE OFFERS AND ALL THAT GOES WITH IT. PLEASE SEE MY HISTORY, IF YOU COULD READ THE ADS, THEY ALL SAY THIS, AND THAT I SELL THINGS.. I DONT HAVE ITEMS THAT WERE LISTED AND NEVER SOLD.. ONCE I TAKE THE TIME TO DO ALL THIS, THEY WILL BE SOLD ON EBAY...
I HAVE HAD TO RELIST A TIME OR TWO DUE TO SCAMMERS ETC... I WILL RECOGNIZE THE SCAMMERS AND RELIST IT INSTANTLY IF I HAVE TO.. WHICH USUALLY LEADS BUYERS TO BELIEVE THE AUCTION WAS RIGGED OR BID UP.. BY A FRIEND... WELL, I DONT DO THIS, SO KNOW THAT YOUR BID IS COMPETING WITH LEGITMATE OTHER BUYERS/BIDDERS ETC.
I HAVE NOT LISTED THE TRUCK FOR SALE LOCALLY, I MAY PUT IT ON CRAIGSLIST IN A FEW CITIES TO GET THE MAX POTENTIAL BUT NOT FOR A DAY OR TWO IF IT DOESNT SELL QUICKLY....
THANKS FOR READING THE DESCRIPTION, THIS IS A NICE LOOKING TRUCK, GETS A LOT OF ATTENTION, AND IS BUILT TUFF AND READY TO DO WHATEVER YOU WANT TO DO WITH IT.. PUT BIG WHEELS AND TIRES ON IT, JACK IT UP, PUT A CAMPER ON IT, TOW A TRAILER, WHATEVER.. ITS READY.....
WHILE UPLOADING THE VIDEO AND EATING DINNER, MY DAUGHTER LEARNED I WAS SELLING IT, AND THE EMOTION CAME... COVERING HER FACE, CRYING, SAYING IT WAS HER TRUCK... WELL, THE PLATES ON IT HAVE HER NAME... SO SHE TOOK OWNERSHIP...
IF YOU NEED SPECIFIC PHOTOS PLEASE LET ME KNOW. IF YOU WANT TO HAVE THE TRUCK INSPECTED, NO PROBLEM.... LET ME KNOW.
IM SELLING OFF SOME EXTRA VEHICLES TO PAY OFF A NOTE THAT IS DUE, THE REASON ITS BEING SOLD.. NOT BECAUSE I DONT LIKE IT, OR THERE IS ANY ISSUES WITH IT....
POSSIBLE DELIVERY TO ANYWHERE WEST OF HERE, POSSIBLY SOUTH OF HERE FOR A BARGAIN PRICE. DEPENDS ON LOCATION....JUST EMAIL AND ASK...
THANKS I WILL POST OTHER VIDEOS TOMORROW (SUNDAY) I MAY HAVE MISPELLED A WORD OR TWO.. DIDNT SPELL CHECK THIS DESCRIPTION...

freeway drive video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=baqc64FwMBw&feature=youtu.be
I was just getting on the freeway and approaching the left lane. I had just put it in over drive at about 70-75. This is not pushing the engine at all up to 85 mph... I put my foot in it a couple times ...not all the way, and it goes to 90 with ease. it could easily go faster... I have the window down so you can see in the mirror its not jumping all over etc... Hats off to Gear Vendor overdrive.. and.. the power of this engine.
I have not photo enhanced any pictures and this video and the other ones are not enhanced... I may have let youtube do something to the first one... whatever they offer.. take the shake out etc...
