sounds like a sweet deal, get a 4.8/trans/harness/pcm/aluminum driveshaft, part out the rest, scrap what's left, and end up with a free LS swap. i can't afford it right now so someone else buy it.

if you buy it give me the seats for a finder's fee or just because you feel like being nice to me.

Since that little reservoir is a $10 part, probably, I assume the only reason to mention it is that the engine was overheated.

4.8 doesn't care about running with no coolant. Guy probably just wants to reinforce "no, dumbasses, you can't drive it home, you WILL need to tow it, as if the mangled frame wasn't clue enough"

Never underestimate how explicit you have to be in a Craigslist ad.

Both of those are good deals (assuming the plow ext. cab is a v8).

These engines are getting old enough, and these trucks old enough, to get more and more plentiful in junkyard and partscar land. Good times are among us.
