    Brown Nugget-1997 4.8l Extended cab project

    The time has come to sell my project truck. Soon I'll be going off to officer school and be gone for over a year and I hate to have this truck sitting here. I'm the 2nd owner and purchased it when the original motor failed. I've installed a 2000 4.8l engine. Looking for a quick sale.....$2000obo!!!!!!! The truck does currently run and drive, though the ABS and speedometer DO NOT WORK.

    Title in hand, bring your trailer!

    Things to finish:
    -install the new wiring harness
    -finish exhaust
    -install a/c components

    New items I've got:
    -Schoenfeld longtubes
    -new a/c compressor, dryer and orifice tube
    -new radiator
    -new hoses
    -all fluids(trans, diff and brake have been serviced
    -new front pads

    The bad:
    -front bumper has been replaced
    -clear coat on top of cabin is peeling

    I'll post more current pics once I'm back in town. (the grille has been re-installed!)

    I know, it's just I haven't the time to finish her up. She'll be a fine truck for anyone who picks her up. Harness included!!!

    Oh, did I mention that the ECU has been reflashed for the antitheft already!

    Someone could finish this up in a few months I'm sure!!!!

    Updated, only have 3 weeks left until I graduate from Officer Training School in Montgomery, AL. Really would like to sell this to make way for another project.

    MAKE OFFER!

    Damn, I would really love to get this and finish it up. Just bad timing right now. Smoking deal though. What base are you at, and what branch of service? Good luck.

    I'm in the Air Force and am currently enlisted (Staff Sergeant), however, will be graduating from OTS in three weeks. I simply don't have the time to finish. I'll be coming home for a short time only to leave again for another 3 months and then another 9 after that!

    I figured I'd sell it and have something once I return.
