Wasilla AK,
My search is over for a clean crewcab to keep in NM my buddy had this truck for a few years and hasn't done much with it because right after he bought it ( he scooped me !! ) he got a Cummins for a tow rig. Well he wanted my 44" boggers and I decided I wasn't gonna use them any time soon so we traded.


Its a 91 V3500 454/4l80E/NP205 4.10's A/C,Cruise, manual windows and locks 105,000 original miles . paints a little fried and it needs a passenger fuel tank . and the tires are pretty dry rotted .

Plans are a 4" lift ,H2 tires and wheels or equivalent ,new paint , 40 gallon sub tank, gooseneck hitch, stereo and power windows and locks , oh and a headliner cuz its a Scottsdale and doesn't have one, Detroit in the rear and a Lock-rite up front, 3" duals with super 44 flowmasters ,headers,Intake.

Most of the stuff I already have just need to find time to work on it. I'll be down in NM in a couple weeks and I'll get more pics

all i can say is 4l80-e great. i love the overdrive on a th400 style tranny.


oh ya sweet lookin rig.
 
yeah I like the 4l80E, until it comes time to rebuild them .

I'm also gonna ditch the old man boards,the shell, and the bumperettes.

I have a complete Blue 91 Silverado Suburban Interior that this truck will be getting . I'd prefer gray or black but I have the blue so I'll use it

I paid 1600 for the 44" boggers so I think I'm doing ok on this project
 
I'm so envious, I cant find a crewcab. Nice score:D

Oh, and I'm gonna ditch the rear leafs for 67-72 truck arms with airbags
 
you need to find me something like that lol

The crew cabs are easy to find, what I really want is nice clean Regular cab SRW K30 with a Big Block A/C and cruise and a SM465........... that seems to be my unicorn I've yet to find one, and well really I've stopped looking as I have a kid now so the crew cab makes more sense
 
friend of mine has a 84 GMC K30, jet black, has a 400 TH400 205 14b FF and D60. has nice aluminum wheels and brand new cooper MT's very nice looking from 20 feet away.

He does bail bonds and took it as collateral and from my understanding he owns it now. seems really decent for the most part. little rust behind rear wheel wells, but the PO was some meth head, some some stuff on it is a little fukked up. the 400 seems REALLY strong though. Id like to buy it, if I can scrape some money together. He told me he would take payments, but ID rather not do that.
 
well if you do and you need body parts let me know, especially if your not in a rush I can find them cheap,
 
not to keep hijacking lol, whats the going rate on a tailgate for a 90's fullsize bronco?
 
I buy alot of tweeker rigs and part them out or fix and re-sell

all 5 of these were under 1200.00 bucks

Good luck on the bronco tailgate even down there they rot out at the bottom, so do the blazers
 
That is a awesome looking truck:bow:, wish they looked like that around here.
