As much as I hate to do it, I've decided to part with my very nice 82 shorty (time to start saving for a dmax!)
I have owned it for about 2 years, 4th owner I think.
The truck has no rust as it was always a California truck until I bought it.
The specs (I try and post pics. soon):
82 Chevy C10 (2wd) 6.2 Diesel
Approx. 165K miles
White exterior, navy blue interior
Silverado Package
700R4 4spd automatic overdrive
3.08 Rear End Gear Ratio
20-23 mpg, typically
Has Rear Wheel Disc Brake Conversion (I have the orig. drums)
'Swanger' Air Cleaner mod. (fits 2 3" tall air filters) (I have the orig. assembly)
J Code intake manifold (non EGR) from 82 truck (I have the orig. C intake)
85+ Glow plug controller with AC 60G glow plugs
Dash is actually from 87 truck (wiper switch on turn. sig. stalk)
SGS Frigette Vacuum Cruise installed (uses stock mult-funct. turn lever)
Factory 87 intermittment wipers installed
Bedliner
Sliding Rear Window
Blaupunkt Radio/Casette with aftermarket speakers
Wheels from 90's 2wd Chevy/GMC Suburban/Pickup (I have orig. rallies)
Newer paint about 4 years old.
Previous owner rebuilt trans., rear end, replaced head gaskets, rebuilt Inj. Pump, new injectors, rebuilt front steering just before I bought it - probably only has about 30K on these items.
Overall, a very tight and mechanically solid truck for its age.
This truck is very fun to drive and a good highway cruiser with the higher gears. Hate to do it, but...
Price: $5,000
Located near Denver, CO.

Thanks for looking!
