I think that guy is an idiot to do that much work on a truck he has no papers on.

And, - He has no reserve, but "If it dosnt get around $2800 it will be pulled." He's a double idiot.

Sweet-looking truck. It's a classic look and the body looks like it's in good shape, at least from the pictures. I know it's a matter of personal taste, but I think the V8 is tacky. Shame they cut it up like that.

And is the mileage correct? 999,999??

He might have got the 2800 if he'd spent the time getting a title for it. Without it, I doubt it'll clear a 1000. I don't mind the V8, have one myself but I did try to make it look like it belonged in there.

I like how it sits, but its pretty obvious the Chevy frame is too wide for the body. The tires must stick out a good 8-12" past the fenders. I'm surprised the wheelbase worked out as well as it did, the wheels look pretty well centered.

Without the title though the entire thing will be a headache. If you're doing a frame swap, be sure to get your title in order first! I'm sure in some states that might not be as big of a deal deal, but I know in California you'd probably have to register it as a '79 Chevy and be subject to smog laws. Only other option would be a special construction title, which are fairly limited in numbers and require a special ability to navigate a fairly intensive paperwork maze to obtain.

A good idea, but I think a little lacking on the execution...
