JWJohnson Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Up for sale is a 1980 720 Single cab long bed pick up. It has an L20B with a 5 speed. It has been driven and you can tell.Quick run down of the work that has been done since I have had it-Entire engine gasket replacement.-New windshield-New rotor, cap, plugs and wires-EGR delete-New head-New cam and towers-New valves-New head boltsI bought the truck in really rough shape and got bent over I feel. It still has a lot of little quirks to it. After I fixed everything on it. I was able to drive it to work for a couple weeks before I couldn't handle getting in and out of it.After all the work it runs good. There is a vacuum leak through either the EGR delete plate or somewhere on the carb its self. A Weber will solve it I'm sure. So it stumbles pretty bad when it gets hot. When it is cold it runs good, small miss, but I'm tired of working on it. I broke my back a couple years ago and this little guy is slammed. I think 2-3'' blocks in the back and torsion bars lowered as far as possible in the front. Getting in and out of it make it very painful to keep so I need to get rid of it. It was fun while it lasted. It would make a great project truck or be a perfect swap vehicle if you wanted something different? Or just need a motor? It is up to you.I have it listed on Craigslist: http://skagit.craigslist.org/cto/3734072664.htmlI'm asking $1,000 for it, BUT, all REASONABLE offers are accepted. I would be willing to trade for another vehicle of similar finish, I would throw some cash money on top for a small diesel car that isn't as low to the ground and runs good. No beaters or projects, I just need a commuter, also, no automatics, MUST be a manual. Give me a holler if you are interested or want a fun little pickup, or project, names Justin. Number's 970-210-8370 or you can email me at jwjohnson5.9@gmail.comThanks.Peep this y'all. Link to comment

Jdm720 Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 Are... Are those hubcaps..? I think I like them....... But GLWS Link to comment
JWJohnson Posted April 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2013 Yeah, sure are, I was thinking about removing them, but figured they had a better look too them, and were more aerodynamic. They net better mileage lulz. Link to comment
Jdm720 Posted April 27, 2013 Report Share Posted April 27, 2013 If you were parting it out I'd have paid you by now... Just to have them B) Link to comment
JWJohnson Posted April 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 I'm thinking about parting it out, but I couldn't make that much with it that way anyways... $850? Nobody wants this thing? Really? I'm open to trades for all kind of stuff, from guns, welders, vehicles, just let me know... Or pass it along. I need this thing gone!! Link to comment
Jdm720 Posted May 1, 2013 Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 You can probably still make that parting it out... Might take a while and you'd need a spot where it wouldn't get in the way... But the parts would go faster if you give an option for shipping. I don't really wanna see another 720 parted out... But I do like those hubcaps :angel: Link to comment
JWJohnson Posted May 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 That is the thing, I don't have anywhere that I can park it to part it out. I live in military housing and we aren't even allowed to work on vehicles, let alone store one to part out. I feel $850 is more than reasonable. I tell you what, I will throw in the hubcaps for free if you buy the truck :rofl: Link to comment
Jdm720 Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 That does seem like a reasonable price.... But it's too far for me :poke: , GLWS Bump! Link to comment
