Sinking Creek 4WD Association

-bought this truck before the school year started. It is a 1989 chevy 2500 "3+3" It was an illinois state owned truck. as you may know, these are well taken care of. I have taken this truck to and from Chicago on many occations. this is my daily driver. I have put around 8,000 miles on it in the past 6 months. it runs GREAT. when i bought it, the owner said the brakes were new and so were the tires. the drivers side seat has rips, so i threw on some seat covers. I have added a cd player and sound system. also changed oil, bought a trans cooler kit, changed lights, etc. This truck comes with a trailer brake controller. I also welded in new rocker pannels and bondoed it up to make the transition look smoother and repainted what i fixed. doesn't look great, but functions great. when i bought it the guy said it was 111,000 miles. he then showed me a carfax report on it indicating some service work done at 156,000, so i assume the odometer has rolled over twice instead of once like the guy said.... but ive never worried about it and it has never given me a reason to not trust it. I don't think the block heater works, i just spray some starter fluid into the grill and it starts right up. the odometer now shows 19,100. i believe this means 219,100, but the previous owner claims otherwise, and carfax sort of contradicts it. anyways, thats about all i can think of on it. if anyone wants to come drive it or whatever lemme know

PRICE- $2150 obo

- i have plenty of time to sit of this, i wont get another truck until april, so im not in any rush

thanks

i am only selling this b/c i am getting a much newer diesel as a gift.

What is the newer diesel gift?
Year?
Make?
Model?
etc...

He said at the meeting he was getting a Duramax.

WELL... the new diesel is my choice.... and no one makes a WVO conversion kit for the duramax's, so i am searching for a 98 dodge 2500 (id consider a 3500) diesel with REAL LOW MILES. like less than 75k. and i would also really like a manual trans. and ill be converting that to run on 100% Waste Veggie Oil.... so my tow rig/ DD will go anywhere for FREE :)

keep your eyes peeled for a 12valve dodge with low miles for me

couple of things a 98 12valve is like finding a needle in a haystack especially with low miles. and be ready to pay for it, a 98 12valve will sell for more than a 99 or 2000 with the same amount of miles. Also with the WVO you still have to start the truck on #2 aswell as shut it down on #2 so you would have to have an aux, tank for the WVO that is heated(because in b-burg it would turn back into a soild unless heated) aswell as a switch to switch between #2 and WVO. By the way if you get a 98 12 valve you better not let me find it

hey all
i had seen that kit before... its pretty expensive. maybe Ill be able to use the money from selling my current diesel so ill have enough for it... speaking of that is anyone a little interested in my 89 chevy?
