History on the truck is minimal. It was purchased about 12 years ago at auction in Carlisle, PA and shortly after it had been refurbished with what appears to be a very nice ‘frame-off’ build which included the new engine. Everything on the undercarriage appears to be in great condition.
There appears to be no bodywork, rust or bubbling anywhere in the bed or cab. The body is straight except for a slight ‘wave’ in the driver’s door (see photo). The lift up tonneau cover reveals a nicely preserved bed with only a few dings or blemishes.
The engine and transmission appear stock with an aftermarket Edelbrock carburetor and ‘wrapped’ headers. Options including power steering, power brakes (disc front & drums rear), and new A/C compressor (blows cold air) are in good working order. Dual exhaust uses FlowMaster mufflers and high flow catalytic converters. The transmission was rebuilt and does shift firmly.
The interior was redone with new carpeting and upholstery. All the factory gauges work except for the gas gauge which can occasionally waver. You can easily change between the two 16-gallon gas tanks using a dashboard switch. There is an aftermarket Pioneer AM/FM/CD player with 4-speakers (behind seat and in door panels), which sounds great. Dashboard is original but does show a few cracks.
The chassis looks stock except for a front stabilizer kit. New brake lines and hardware were added, and the transfer case appears to have been rebuilt. The K1500 rides on 31/10.5R/15 B.F. Goodrich All Terrain tires and the stock 8-lug wheels and trim rings.
Overall the truck runs and drives great. It shows like a new K1500 4×4. No disappointments.
