So I picked this truck up 2 months ago for $2200.

95 Chevy 2500 350 auto with a decent stahl bed.

Had to do front ball joints, and some other misc stuff.
Then I repainted the bed and built a bolt on headache rack.

Enjoy the pics, more info at the end.

There you have it....

A decent work truck....

Any questions, feel free to ask.
My time is your time. :D

In case anyone wondering, that guy cutting the expanded metal isn't wearing safety glasses.
He must of missed the first day of welding class.

No doubt about you John, boundless enthusiasm, embraced by good skills
Looks like a pretty reasonable result. Should get some good use out of that.

NICE WORK! I love your willingness to take a project and get very involved in it! Details matter, and you pay attention to details! I enjoy your outdoor work spaces - and I am sure that they are great - until is starts to snow or rain. Maybe you can talk to that guy about the safety glasses issue in a company memo, company safety meeting, or annual company event like a picnic or formal dinner

Thanks Boomer.

I had $2,800 in the truck, and I just sold it tonight for $3,800.

Not bad. I'll pick up another one soon.
