This is a truck that I bought for a friend not running. It looks good with original paint and no rust. Early Banks non wastegated turbo with banks exhaust all the way back. Boost Pyro and trans temp guages. C-6 with 3.55 gears. This truck was pampered by the original owner who eventually gave it to his grandson. I don't know what the grandson did, but the tread is burned off of the rear tires, and the compression is now at 120-150. My guess is that he cooked the pistons or blew the head gaskets.
Anyway my friend doesn't want to do an engine swap, just wants his money back out of it.
$800 bucks would be a deal on the turbo, but this truck has a very nice original interior and body as well.
PM if interested.

I don't have any. Its an XLT two tone gray with a red interior. Paint is original, it has some fading, but there are few if any dents. The truck is currently at a shop in Tracy City so I can't run out and take any. If there is significant interest I will try to get some in the next couple of days.
I figured you might want it just for the turbo.

No rust. Underneath looks like new from my memory. I is originally from Marshall Mize ford in Chattanooga and I remember laying under it in awe of how clean the cab was.
It will probably be middle of next week before I am in that neck of the woods again to shoot pics.

Here are some pics. I tried to take one of under the cab, but it sucked. There seems to be factory undercoating on it. Has anyone ever seen a trailer brake apparatus like that, attached directly to the brake pedal?
I hope someone can resurrect this one. I would hate to see it crushed.

if they are going to crush it take the turbo kit and gauges off as it dont add that much weight tell them you pay the weigh difference which would be like 10-20 dollars
