Just kind of testing the waters with this; I'm wanting to downsize to a 1st Gen 4Runner or ZR2 blazer, but I'm not sure. Thought I'd see what kind of interest there is;

Truck is a 90 K5, stock as a rock with all options besides power mirrors. All power windows and locks work well. The interior is exceptionally clean-no real carpet or seat wear, no stains, ground in grime, etc. The dash has a couple cracks, but it has a dashpad so they're unnoticeable. It does need a new rear DS seat belt that bolts to the floor but other than that it's CLEAN.

The exterior looks good with a couple minor flaws. Windshield has a crack, there's a softball sized chunk of rust behind the DS rear wheel well and a dent/gouge about the size of a deck of cards in the DS door. Looks like the hood caught some light hail as well, but it's not too bad. Otherwise the paint shines, no clearcoat peeling-it's a sharp truck.

Mechanically needs nothing. Truck has just over 160k miles, and the original owner had Burt Chevy install a Goodwrench engine at 104k (don't know why). He kept every single service and maintenance record on this thing from 89 when he bought it! Doesn't leak anything nor does it look like it ever has.

This is one of the 4 or 5 cleanest K5s I've ever seen and without a doubt cleanest I've owned.

I don't know what it's worth, so please feel free to guide me on price; similar trucks in the denver metro are getting 4800, so let's say $4000 OBO, and I'll consider trades. Feedback appreciated too on price!

Also forgot to mention it has a Python alarm with remote door locks and an older Pioneer double DIN stereo. I can get more pics of anything if needed.

Dude it really is. I know it's minor, but you should see the undercarriage; I doesn't look like it's ever had a drop of stray fluid blow back ever. It's immaculate.

I can get pics of anything someone wants to see, even if you're just curious. I know I'm a pic whore for a clean K5!

I'd also consider a rougher but modded k5, dd type car + cash, whatever. I just can't hack or beat on this thing it's too nice :p
 
DUDE!!!!!
So SEXY!!!!
I wonder why I think so..... Oh yah lol

If there's anything else you'd like to see a picture of, let me know. I'm on vacation this week so snapping pics in a hurry is no problem.

I appreciate that. Honestly I'm getting rid of it simply because I don't want to trash it. I'd rather get a more beaterish rig that won't break my heart to thrash.

Even though it has this rust spot, I would love to get this from you, problem is I can only trade, I have tooooooo many vehicles.
I don't think I have anything you are looking for though.
:confused:
 
I had that same rust spot, cut it out, put in a steel plate, filled with some bondo, and slapped some herculiner on both sides from the trim down. Easy fix, and looks good I think.

Try me man, all I can say is no thanks! Whatcha got?
 
Is that the only rust in her?

Unbelievably. Yes. Rockers (inner and outer) are solid, all wheel wells and tailgate are good (just had it apart to change the electric window cable), body mounts and frame are a-ok as well. I can snap some underneath pics today.
 
I'd trade for an older modified K5 + cash too. I'm not 100% positive on a 'Runner or zr2. I'll consider anything!
