Not sure where to post this so I stuck it here.
Picked up a new to us 1993 6.2 Vin C 1500 4L60E 4x4 a couple of weeks ago. It was a US Goverment Military Rig. Best we can tell it was used on the flight deck for the Navy down in the Norfolk area. PO bought in 2008 with only 61,201 on the clock!:bigeyes2:! Currently has 112k. Recent tranny rebuild. Straight body, doors shut nice. Nice seat 60/40 bench from a newer truck. Has the cool and rare manual floor vents. The bad. No AC- have a slider from another truck that we will be putting in and with the floor vents as long as you are moving everything will be fine! The PO owner installed a body lift which will be removed. The dash is pretty rough- lots of cracks. The passenger side cab corner is rotten (the only rust we can find on the body).The PO blew a heater hose and proceeded to drive to the parts store with no coolant!:WTF: The head gaskets are shot. Popped a valve cover and there is some rust. When we drained the oil there was coolant/ water in the pan. Gonna drop the oil pan to inspect the bottom end for rust/ corrosion. Then I am gonna remove the heads to inspect from there. If everything checks out then the plan is to put her back together and start driving the ol' girl!:thumbsup:
