1997 GMC Sierra 3500 Crew Cab Pickup Truck 4x4 - 4 Door, Long Bed, 350 Automatic
Runs great, 4x4 works great. New Jasper Transmission with warranty from Jasper and 150 miles on it. Clean truck and no rust, other than surface rust on the frame. Original truck. A survivor truck of sorts for a 1 ton single wheelbase. Low miles 139,774. Has the 5.7, 350 motor, 14mpg last time I calculated. *No cigarette smoke, no weird smells.* See video (Ebay allows 1 minute, I have longer video I can possibly email or Facetime). I have owned this for around 5 years. It had been a one owner truck and was transferred to the owner’s sister upon his passing. She then sold the truck to me. So, in a sense I am the third owner. This truck was originally on a ranch in Colorado and South Dakota. No wrecks, does have dings from use. Again, New $5500 Jasper transmission. This summer the transmission started acting up which is common with that model transmission. I had Hayes brothers in Murfreesboro, TN put a new Jasper in it with full warranty from Jasper. It has around 150 miles on the new transmission. Also, a new radiator and blower relay for AC/Heat repaired then as well ($6,000 total for all of that). New door pins installed on the driver door. AC/Heat work great (I installed a new blower motor last year). The tailgate looks as if it was replaced at some point in its life, correct tailgate though. I have receipts to go with what I mentioned. All 4 doors and open and close nicely.
**Vin # 1GTHK33R8VF053669
Cons: 1. Rear passenger missing window button/switch (still works, button cover is missing)
2. This just started in the past year and doesn't happen all the time. In a hard rain some moisture at the drivers side, top of firewall I'm assuming dampens the carpet edge along the floor trim (you can see picture 18, some dampness along the trim on the carpet)Doesn't do it all the time. I dry it each time, but I don't know where exactly it's getting in.
3. Radio works, CD and tape deck are not working (tape say's "clean" on the screen) . Both did when I bought it 5 years ago, guess I played too many country music tapes in it.
4. It looks like there is some exhaust leaking from the manifold (under the truck).
5. Minor scratches, paint fade, some dings and dents. Marks here and there in the interior. Has signs of use, it's not mint,
but this truck was not abused. I didn't cover it in Amorall for a fake shine, it's the way it looks in driveway.
**Please look at all pictures, I paid extra to have 40 pictures available. I know it's hard to see everything online, but this should help.
**Contact me with any questions before purchase. I don't want to waste your time or mine. I'd rather you know exactly what you're getting. I'd be glad to do Facetime (live phone video) and let you spend some time seeing what you want to see on it.
** I have owned and driven this truck for 5 years. It had 107,000 on it when I bought it. It's been a great truck.
**Down Payment of $500
** Shipping - Will be arranged and paid for by buyer. Please have the driver contact me for details and a time to pick up. Truck is at our farm, if you have over a 30ft. trailer, contact me for directions (I'll need to bring you in from the direction to avoid the small bridge on the curve)
Thanks
