If you've got one for sale I'm looking to find a clean stocker or lightly modded truck. I don't want your beat up or rusted out trail rig, it needs to be street legal and running. I'd like to spend around 3000 tops for a truck to start building.

What kind of condition are you looking for?  I know of one that may be for sale in Bremerton that needs some work.

I need a truck with at very least a good cab and front end ( I can build a flat bed but I'm not really set up for sheet metal work, so rust free and minimal dents is a must), and a rust free (aside from light surface rust) frame. I want a decent engine I.E. at very least rebuildable, not completely fubared.

I know a guy with a 1st Generation that has a decent body and the motor looks to be in decent shape.  It came as part of a house deal and the only problem is that it is missing the rear 3rd member and doesn't have any keys.  Any interest?

I'd rather have something I can drive as soon as I buy it. My experience with cases like that truck is that, no matter how little someone thinks it needs, the more you fix the more problems you find.

Yeah, a basket case is NOT what I need, the truck is going to be a daily driver. I will consider 84-85 trucks if they fit waht I'm looking for, which is a decent truck that doesn't require a ton of money and work to be a driver.
