Im getting a 1977 Chevy Luv here soon I hope. Would like to know what yall think its worth. 1.8L Isuzu motor 4speed manual 2wd and has a decent amount of fixable rust in the floors and bed. Missing what I assume to be the heater core. So when it rains water gets in the truck. I got it running for the first time in 6-7 years and it needs a carb adjustment as well as a battery and full tune up. Truck is all stock for now. Would also like to hear any build ideas yall might have.

i have one for parts if you want anything...frame snapped in half we ran ratchet straps from bumper to bumper to keep it alive for a bit longer haha, my friends and i used as our source for fun when we were 12...i call it good parenting
has the 1.8L isuzu diesel...i would leave it stock and enjoy 50 mpg
Awesome little trucks!
I also have an 80's isuzu trooper with the same trans if you want to do an engine swap into it ever..........I dont have time as i am finishing up college now and have plans to move to md for my job, so all of these things need to go haha

What it's worth? Probably $600.
Build ideas?
I've seen one fabricated onto a C4 Vette chassis... Not really sure how, but it was ****ing awesome.
You can pick up a beat up C4 for $2500.
Would be awesome.
It's 2WD and rough anyway, so it should be no great loss to Luvdom...
Go for it.
If not, at least do a V8 conversion.
;D

classic.
mines an 82, but it looks very similar. Probably a very similar drive train, too.
my cousin has a house in raleigh, im not sure if she would be down for dragging it down there haha.
It dumped black smoke before "rolling coal" was so cool, or douchey
Want to say it had around 85 hp

I want the motor at least and could use some electrical parts off of it. Maybe I can send you a list and get you to send it to me. My wipers dont work for some reason. Havent had time to play with it much yet but they wont budge for some reason.
