I am looking to buy a 88-94 Chevy or GMC Full size. It must have 4wd. Other than that, not to picky.

Milage and body condition does not matter much, but must be drivable and I need it to last the rest of winter. Does not need to be pretty, rusty is ok.

I am looking to spend less than $1500.

Let me know if you have or see something.

Thanks

Like I said, it just needs to last through winter before I need to do any major work.

I am looking for a 88-94 because I can work on them and I know them pretty well. I dont care if the body is rusty, as long as it does not need major surgery now. When I say major surgery, I mean front suspesion rebuild, engine replacement or Trans pulled. I can do some work now, but I would have to do it outside, and I dont feel like doing it now.

That sounds like a good truck to look at, but I will need to do the maintnance and keep it running, so I would like to get a Chevy just because I know them pretty well and it would be easy to work on. Plus, I will be rebuilding my truck next summer, so I will have a ton of parts left that can be used (for the most part) on the truck I buy.

THanks I did not see that one. Brake lines are do-able, and if the rest of the truck is ok mechanically, that may work.

Thanks for the link.

Plus I can thak the tube bumper off my 89 and put it on that thing. I have a new bumper for my truck.
