Get your tow vehicle here. Not mine, etc...

1992 GMC C3500 Ext Cab Dually, 2wd, 6.2 Diesel, 4L80E, BLOWN MOTOR - $700 (Bristol)

Up for sale is my dually pick up truck. Mileage: 196,000. GVWR: 10,000lbs. This truck is labeled in the door jamb as a Autotruck cab and chassis. It has a blown 6.2 diesel motor and good 4L80E transmission. The frame is immaculate. I lent it to a friend and it came back with a knock. I knocked him on the side of the head. He never even offered to help me to fix it! It sounds like one of the connecting rod bearings spun. It still starts and runs but knocks loudly. I am a mechanic and performed quite a bit of work on this truck. I am relocating out of state and don't have the time to repair it before I leave, hence the sale.

This truck has lots of new parts on it and served me well. New parts replaced within the last 2 years (it has been sitting for about a year):

New radiator ($300!) New oil cooler hoses New radiator hoses New water pump and thermostat New engine mounts New transmission mount New steering pitman arm New steering idler arm New drive shaft center support bearing

The good: Good 4L80E 4 speed overdrive transmission (goodwrench rebuild) with connector retrofit. Plastic bed liner Aftermarket taillights Custom straight pipe/cherry bomb exhaust system Diamond plate bed gaurds Diamond plate running boards Truck frame in immaculate condition Dually fiberglass fenders in good condition No cracks in windshield

The bad: Blown motor Left cab corner rotten One of the sliding rear windows is broken Bench seat worn out No batteries

Are their enough pieces to sell off to drop this in for under $2015?

That's worth it just for the transmission + scrap value...

That's worth dropping in a 6.5T.
