Oklahoma truck with ZERO rust, low miles, all orig panels, runs beautifully

Selling my beautiful 1983 GMC 1/2 ton short wheelbase stepside pickup (the rarest and most desirable Squarebody truck). It was sold new in Oklahoma City (still has the original dealership emblem below the tailgate), and I have the original warranty booklet and owner's manual for it. I do not know how many owners it has had, but it has led a good life and been loved (which is evident from its excellent condition). There is absolutely NO rust anywhere on the truck and it runs, stops, and drives like a nearly new truck. It has a very dependable Small Block Chevy 305 cubic-inch engine which is equipped with an Edelbrock 4-barrel carb and intake manifold (the original GM intake and Rochester Q-Jet 4-barrel carb come with the truck). The engine starts easily, idles smoothly, and pulls stronglyit is a very quick truck. It gets decent gas mileage and has no issuesI wouldn't hesitate to take it on a coast-to-coast trip. The engine is paired with a very dependable GM TH-350 automatic trans and a fuel-friendly 2.73 non-posi rear axle. It has dual exhaust which provides a nice sound during rapid accelerationthe exhaust looks like new. It has power steering that works great and manual front disc brakes that stop the truck just fine (all brakes and the suspension have been inspected and are in good conditionit recently had a front-end alignment and steers great). The interior is in good condition with no dash cracks. There is some fading and wear on the original door panels, but they still look very presentable. The original blue cloth bench seat cover has some stains and was covered by a previous ownerI decided to leave it alone and it is very comfortable. I don't believe this truck has ever been in an accident as the panel fit is perfect and the doors and windows open with no problems. There is a dent in the right rear fender which was there when I bought the truck (I was told that a previous owner backed into a semi at a truck stopthe dent is easily fixable). There are several scratches along the right front fender and door, but they aren't noticeable unless you look closely. I believe the truck was painted at some point in the past, but it is very shiny and looks greatif it was painted it was done so by a professional. The bed wood is in good condition, but needs to be refinishedthere is a piece of 3/4" plywood covering the bed wood to protect it. It has brand new BFG Radial TA radial tires and the original alloy wheels were professionally refinished at a cost of $550they look fantastic and very muscular on the truck (I am providing an extra factory alloy wheel with the sale). The original spare tire and jack are with the truck and both in good condition. When I got the truck it had 98k original miles, but the speedometer pointer was broken (the odometer still worked). I installed a better-looking speedometer that had an unbroken pointer and I have driven the truck 3k miles since I bought it (the current odometer shows 83k miles, so the truck has 101k original milesI will be glad to reinstall the original speedometer and both speedometers will come with the truck). I have driven many sporty trucks and this one is the sportiest of them allit never fails to attract attention and it handles and rides like a sport truckrock solid. To the winning bidderI expect a down payment of $500 via Paypal within 24 hours of the close of the sale or I will cancel the sale and relist it. I expect complete payment in cash within 14 days of the end of the sale (no checks of any kind will be accepted unless I speak with the buyer firstthe funds must be in my hand or the truck will not leave my possession). I will be glad to help your shipper load the truck, but the arrangements for shipping and cost will be paid by the buyer. I can be reached at 614-769-5868 via text messages ONLY (no voicemails), and the truck can be inspected prior to the end of the sale (I'm on the north side of the Columbus metro area). Thanks and happy bidding.
