I have owned this truck for the past 12 years and it was my daily driver for most of that time. It was originally purchased by the City of NY as a fleet vehicle in 1989. In 2003 I purchased it with only 43,000 miles. I have the car fax from when I purchased it, he truck was well maintained from the city and I continued to maintain throughout its life. I am selling it now because the truck is running roug, robably from sitting and being used only once and while. It runs ok some time and then others it doesn't.Could be fuel injectorsormap sensor etc.Hesitates at idle but revs fine once you open it up. It needs to be sorted out in order to drive it on a regular basis. Other than that everything else runs well. The transmission was rebuilt shortly after I purchased the truck and works perfectly. Fluid is also in good shape. The 4 wheel drive works as well. I have all the receipts for any service. Over the course of owning this truck I kept all the mechanicals running. Some of the items were replaced a few years ago but have less than 10k miles on them. Over the last ten years I changed water pump, owersteering pump, ierods,altenator, ipe motor, teering box, rake lines, rums, otors, aliper, indshield,oil changed every 3000 miles, uel pump,fuel pressure regulator, uch more.
Recently replaced
New windshield 10/5/15, ew Battery 5/27/15, ew fuel pump and regulator, adiator with lifetime warrante, ew u-joints, rakes including most of the brake lines, master cylinder, heel cylinders etc. front tie rods
Exterior
The outside of the truck looks ok because its all white. Over the years I have touched up the paint as I fix the rust that pops up each year. Paint job is not good and if you were looking to make this truck nice, ou need paint and body work. If you use this truck to plow your business or off road you can keep touching up. The body is straight, ut has pitting in the quarters and doors from rust under paint. Like I said, t gets sanded and touched up as it comes up. The lower rockers were replace years ago and are in good shape. There is some rust in the wheel lip opening and in the rear beam and bed floor. Glass is all good and the top has never been removed and does not leak. All lights and signals work. Like I said earlier it will need paint and body work to me nice. The frame is great with no rust except on surface. The floors were repaired during the life of this truck. They show some surface rust now
Interior
The interior is very basic as this was ordered as a fleet truck, t came with a rubber floor mat, ut I put a new rug when I purchase the truck. After 12 years the rug has many stains and dirt. The bucket seats work but have some rips. The dash as a few cracks in the top. No A/C in this truck. The dash as a few light bulbs out in the speedo and gas gauge. The temp gauge and gas gauge are not accurate. I use 300 miles as my fill up guide. Center console is good and so is back seat. Could use a good cleaning
Mechanical
Engine runs rough when warm and hesitates when opening throttle (some times) Runs fine when you start it cold
Transmission works good as does the four wheel drive, -joints replace and front drive shaft good
Suspension is all original including shocks so could probably use some fresh parts
Brakes are in good working order
This truck needs some work so please keep that in mind when buying. I tried to describe all the negative things as well as some of the good things.I may have missed a thing or two so ask questions.
Over all a good vehicle in snow or off road. Has leaf springs all around so the suspension is strong. If you go to LMC Truck.com you can find tons of parts to make this truck awesome. I have no more time to mess with this truck so time to pass it on to someone else . Contact me for more information or pictures before bidding. All sales are finally and there is no refunds or returns. The truck needs to be picked up or shipped.
