I have some of the stock parts, if you want them (plenum, lower pulley, stock air box). Also have trailer hitch that will go with it… not installed currently, took it off about a week after I bought the truck b/c I wasn’t planning to tow with it.

This is a one-owner truck that has been very well maintained. However, if you are looking for a mint condition truck, this is not it. But I am very particular about my vehicles, so I consider “mint condition” to be showroom new. I would consider this an excellent/very good condition vehicle...superb condition for its age. As far as how it drives… it drives perfectly. There are no issues (leaks, oil burning, etc). There is some seepage from the T/A rear diff cover, but no residue hits the ground even when parked for a long time. Idles normally, driveability is stock-like, acceleration is what you would expect out of the mods listed. I do not have recent dyno #s for it. Without the long-tubes, it made 391rwhp/441rwtq SAE, I believe, but I’m going by memory… that was 8 years ago. Have had this truck to the drag strip ONE time… that was 8 years ago… ran 12.81 @ 109mph on Nitto 555R tires with the SAE figures above.

Interior has no rips/tears, and very little wear. The only drivers have been myself and my son and we are ~150lbs, so the normal wear that you see on the driver’s seat is just not there. No stains on seating surfaces. I’d rate the interior a 9.5/10. If you want the interior to be showroom, you will want to purchase some new floormats. Really… that is it. But the OEM mats are dirty, but they have always been in the vehicle, so the carpet underneath is perfect.

Exterior is in really good condition, but does have some minor road rash that would be typical of a 10yr old vehicle with 54k miles. Only real issue is front bumper cover. Since the truck has a 2/2 drop, it has made contact on a couple of severe dips in the road surface. So there is some scrubbing on the very bottom of the front bumper cover. I have attached pics of that. If you’re standing in front, you don’t see it really. If you’re down low, you certainly do. The paint around the truck’s body panels is in really good shape. Shines well, and has been cared for. If I was going to keep the truck and show it, I would have the front bumper cover sanded and repainted. But, again, I’m very particular. From 10’ away, it looks very good. From 5’ away it looks ok, and from 2’ away, you can see the typical imperfections that go along with driving a vehicle on the highway (as well as the scrubbing at the very base of the bumper cover). Painted tails are something I did about 9 years ago. I absolutely hate the polished tail lenses, so I took these apart, sanded and painted the polished surfaces, and glued them back together using a clear, industrial adhesive. Over time they are showing some age… I still think they look good, but I have a pair of next-to-new red ones that will be included. I can install these for the buyer, if you like (takes 10 mins).

I’m going to upload as many pics as SVT Performance will let me. I have a lot of them. I am also going to try and copy/paste my Excel file with maintenance history.

I will answer any and all questions, so please PM me. You may also send me email at [email protected]. I have bought/sold lots of new cars, and lots of used vehicles. I want the new owner to be happy and know exactly what they are getting b/c that is what I want when I buy a used vehicle. My reputation as a hot-rodder and auto enthusiast in the Dallas/Ft Worth area is excellent, and I will strive to keep it that way.

sorry... the formatting wasn't great in the transfer of data from Excel spreadsheet. :(

You will notice there is some time in late '08-'10 when the truck was not driven much at all. I was storing it for my son at the time. Took it out about once a month to keep things lubed and seals in good shape... but no significant mileage to speak of.

Some deadbeat bidders, that's for sure... had to delete 3 bids. Amazing how people waste others' time.

Anyway... if someone would like to make a reasonable offer, you're welcome to. Someone will get a really nice vehicle, regardless of what the selling price is!

The truck is loud... no doubt. I do not have video currently... I'm old, so I am not as adept as some folks at uploading stuff. But I can do that next week. I do not have the complete factory exhaust. I am pretty sure I have the stock cat H-pipe, but do not have the manifolds. The stock cat-back might be up in the attic, I'd have to check.

Honestly, ive said this to several folks who inquire about my stable of cars... the truck sounds the best (most aggressive) of all of them. It is loud, especially when you're on the throttle. Nothing that a pair of hi-flow cats wouldn't help with, though. But I think it is one of the best selling points about the truck.

This is the kind of sales we need more of on this website, less of this scamming/bullshittery.

Bravo to the two of you, and Wes that's a beautiful truck, Tony is a lucky guy :beer:
