Members, it's not a Mack, but it's unique in a couple ways! Memphis Tn Craigslist 1988 Chevy  single axle day cab 427,5and 2 speed 5 th wheel,set up like a city tractor stored inside, are you ready ? 11800 mi! 10000.00 !  From the photos pristine would be a conservative description of the condition! Sure you can get gas burners in average condition from 1000 up, but this is a new truck! You can read the factory chalk marks on the frame! Of course you'd have to hear it run and need a believable reason for the miles,the belts and

Other rubber parts would need changed, and depending on whether it was run periodically and the brake system drained would be a concern. But what is a 427 block and powertrain worth? A perfect " hobby truck" If I didn't have other stuff going on I'd be on a plane! Most of the parts from late model Chevy would interchange! Take a look!

Probably a tall deck 427 so I wouldn't think it would bring much. 

The problems we face today exist because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by the people who vote for a living.

The government can only "give" someone what they first take from another.

Heavy Gunner, never had the occasion to price one, but someone bought it! Would love to know what they were going to use it for! The seller said it would be a good farm truck,or could be used to pull a lowboy, I tend to agree,I've never seen any snow or ice in Memphis, certainly not in the salt belt!

Certainly would be a neat truck. I wasn't trying to detract from it in my earlier post about the drivetrain not bringing much. I say that because the tall decks aren't popular with hotrodders and there is little to no aftermarket support and I see those farm trucks with 366, 427 and 454 go for little to nothing at farm auctions.
