I have a 1988 K1500(newer body style) rig for a project vehicle. I bought this project from a friend who had a kid and wasn't able to continue with it. However due to starting my own business, I do not have the time or money(mostly money) to complete the project. For now my focus has to be my business, and after the truck has not moved an inch in over a year, it is about time to make a decision. Not 100% I want to sell it, but if someone makes the offer I will likely cave, ha.

1988 K1500, with clean PA title.
-ORU SFA swap brackets, including bumpstops and brackets (about $850 kit)
-ORU kit is intended from Chevy Front axles and older Ford axles(narrower spring spacing)
-Body was removed, frame sanded and painted gloss black, looks great
-6" front BDS springs
-4" Rear BDS springs(64" springs) and 4" blocks to match the front. (Factory rears included)
-14 bolt semi float rear
-8 lug 10 bolt front with ORU crossover steering knuckle ($500+ value)
-Has 3" body lift, but half the spacers are missing, intended to remove it.
-Power windows in the doors, no knowledge of function.
-Steering box is hooked up and drag link installed, so you can steer it
-No brakes at the moment, no brake lines run either.
-Step side bed (some rust on underside, and both bedsides have tears and some damage).

Last picture is the bit of bed rust, you can see the black frame and some remnants of brake lines still there.

I have a lot of parts to go with this, but I am going to sell them separate. Plan was big bad offroad/road legal truck.

Asking $1500 obo. You are looking at over 1500 worth of parts, let alone the truck with clean title. I hate to list this, but I really do not see myself finishing this project anywhere near now.

Just noticed your only 2 1/2 hours away. Looking for trades?? Got a couple D60s and a bunch of other stuff....I want to SAS my Blazer and could use the parts off this....
 
Sorry no, no interest in trades. I would just turn around and sell them, likely not get enough for them cause I would be impatient about selling, and blah blah blah, ha.
 
Supposed to be getting 2 dana 60's, 1 GM and one HP60, if I can get those and sell them before you sell this......hmmmm
 
My buddy offered me his 47 Studebaker last night for $1500 so guess what, the price of this beast just dropped to $1500! I will get some updated pictures soon, they are on my camera just have to get around to transferring.
 
Wow that's a smokin deal. Lemme see what I can do, need the parts for mine, maybe even build it....
 
More pictures. The previous owner was turning it into a show truck, so he was doing random body work and smoothing stuff. It was left unfinished, and being as I intended it for an offroad rig, I didn't care. Little moss growing on the carpet from the door being off for a few years now. :haha:

no, honestly think I am pretty well done with offroading. Just want to build a street car to cruise and go to shows with. Offroading is too much time commitment and money for me right now. Just being able to jump in the car and cruise on a friday night would be nice.

I will likely get rid of the pile of parts I have too, but not until after the truck goes. Unless whoever wants the truck wants parts too, ha.
 
Not interested in a 2wd S-10 Blazer are yah?? I'm trying to sell that to get your truck. I have the parts to put in a SBC, rebuilt 700, posi, polished Xtmre wheels, all the TBI stuff....
 
If I didn't have the 47 Studebaker lined up I would be, ha. But with the Studey on the hook I want that more than any other option. Sorry.
 
Still for sale, much much more serious about seeing it gone now! Need the space in the parking lot.
 
I tried selling the Blazer, and don't have anything else to sell that I could get enough out of. I haven't played the lotto in a while, see how that goes...Other than that, looks like I'm out...:(
