Looks clean, but if they think that 200k on a lower end has a lot of miles left, then someone doesn't understand how rings and bearings work. Lol

Yeah, I noticed that as well. $4700 is a lot since the bottom will need a rework and theres no telling how the underside is.

Looks like someone stole some stick on parts off a Vette and glued them on a square. it's overpriced already!

I like it! But, not that seat and having had the work done on the body the price may be steep. At least he is honest about what it is and it may be a really sweet truck!

Dumb as ****. And numbers matching my ass. That's a later engine and the T-400 wasn't available behind a 350, plus the 350 wasn't available in a SWB.

Not to mention those are fender louvers off of a '79 Z-28... I should know. I've got a set in my garage (I'm putting them on an '80 but that doesn't matter). That hood scoop thingy looks like a bolt on too.

TOTAL BS

Edit. I'm emailing with this guy to see what BS he is trying to pull. Seems like an idiot to me.

After going back and forth with this guy for a bit trying to get some info (and getting none) this is what I told him:

Well, after doing some research and looking at your updated posts, all I can say is this is BS. I'm not sure if you slapped that junk on an old C10 or if someone else did, but either way it was a poor way to try to increase the value of an otherwise decent truck. GM never licensed the Stingray name on anything other than the Corvette, and even if they did I highly doubt they would do it like this. Really? A couple badges, a pair of camaro louvers, and that's it? Don't you think they would at least have made it a tachometer model with something better than a smogged 350? Do you really think it would have manual windows?

Good luck with the sale, I just hope nobody gets screwed thinking this is real...

Ooo... His answer...

Hey Dude shut the f*** up if you don't know what the f*** you're talking about doesn't mean that I don't go hit on some other s*** you tire kicking f***


Think I pissed him off? I sent this back:

Problem is I do know what I'm talking about. There is no such thing as a Stingray C10. I'm not trying to bust on you, just trying to make sure you understand that you may be mistaken in your listing. If this was real, I would have been interested as I collect unusual vehicles. However application of basic logic and a little research shows that this truck is a re-badged "blinged" c10 and nothing more. Again I wish you luck with your sale, I just hope someone buys it for what it is. A tired old white c10. A decent example of one, but still nothing more.

I like that his response yields zero grammar skills or punctuation :D

That held true for all of his responses, not just this explosion of negativity.

Hope nobody pays a premium for it
