Description of 1978 GMC Sierra 2500

This 1978 Sierra Grande 2500 GMC was sold new 38 years ago from. Boiseauto dealer Dennis Dillon. Still in Business Today. The truck was donated to a local non-profit where I purchased it. IThis truck has a couple of dings but over alloffers anextremely strait body and body lines without the manydents and dings thatusually accumulate on these old trucks. The odometer reads 52800 and I think it's possible those are original miles as the brake and gas pedals show almost no wear.This truck has always livedin the high desert so the under side of the truck is in excellent conditionthe floor pan is rust free and dent free.The body panel fit is excellent and the bed is incredibly strait with just a couple of minor dingsThere is some minorsurface rust on bed and tail gatewhere the paint has peeled andsome pitting at an area on the door where the trim created a water trap. the front bumper is excellent. The front grill has small ding (very repairable). The back bumper is a little bent. The 350 engine runs very strong and the transmission shifts well. I have the original build sheet and owners manual. The build sheet shows the interior as xdd1 Blue Custom Vinyl and the paint color as#12 Frost White.When I purchased the truck it had a monstrous aftermarketHolly 750 carburetor that did not work well so I installed a quadrajet carb that I had andtruck runs great how ever I have not tracked down an air cleaner. Options include factory air and cruise and an 8 track player. This is a worthy project with a fairly short path to completionbut I have to many trucks and Ineedto pass it along.
