Used 71 GMC K2500 CRAWLER 4x4 6k obo for sale in Chicago Park, CA

Hello Craigslist,

The time has come for me to let go of this amazing truck, 1971 GMC 2500 Custom with a Myers 6 foot power angle Snow Plow with curb savers attached. I have owned this truck for the past 7 years and it is a beast with all the sought after goodies.Below is a list of what the truck either came with from the factory, or was rebuilt and or upgraded by me. (I am an ASE Certified Tech with over 20 year experience so everything is done properly.)

This truck has lived in the mountains for the past 40 years that I know of, as stated before it's been in my possession for the the last 7 years and has plowed some of the thickest wet snow (Sierra cement) that you can imagine. I have also used the truck to haul firewood with ease. While this beast of a truck is great for those two things it is not geared for the highway/interstate; however, you certainly could drive and I have driven on the highway/interstate many a time at a speed of about 45 mph running the engine at 2600 rpm.

I bought the truck with the original 402 sbc 4bm that had been rebuilt (.030 ) the year prior to my ownership so that would make the engine a 408 I believe, it also has a rebuilt SM465 4 speed muncie transmission paired to a rockwell T221 transfer case that runs the differentials: corp 10 bolt up front and dana 60 in the rear that have a 456 gear ratio.I did change the closed knuckle front diff drum brake dana 44 to a 76 3/4 ton corporate 10 bolt to have disk brakes up front, when this conversion was done I upgraded everything in/on this differential: 35 spline chrome-moly axles, detroit locker, ball joints etc.

The truck has a rusted out rocker panel (left), floor boards and a lot of body filler in the cab itself, it's old and has been exposed to the elements up here in the sierras, I believe the rest of the truck is in good shape considering, there is also a small dent in the bed at the rear driver tail light which the lens is broken, a small dent in the driver rear lower cab by the rocker panel and right rear lower side of the bed. I backed into a small tree while plowing last year when it was dumping down.
