Selling my 1999 GMC Sierra 1500 4×4 with the 5.3L Vortec V8 and automatic transmission. This is the classic GMT800 platform with a solid frame, strong drivetrain, and dependable LM7 engine. It has a new battery, good tires, and a clean title. The odometer display is faded/unreadable but mileage is a little over 150k.
Factory build (VIN 2GTEK19T4X1510272): extended cab, 4×4, 5.3L V8, half-ton, full-size GMC pickup.
Mechanical Condition
The truck starts and runs, but it won’t drive correctly until the transmission shift cable is replaced. Once that cable is installed, the transmission should shift normally again. A shop inspected it this week and gave a full estimate:
Required to drive:
• Shift cable – $575 (parts + labor, Washington DC prices)
Additional repairs the shop recommended (optional depending on use):
• Front control arms – $1,912
• Oil & coolant flush + hoses – $1,100
• Window regulator – $525
Essential repairs total: ~$3,600–$3,700
Full restoration potential: ~$5,500–$6,000
(Prices are DC shop pricing, so they’re on the higher side; cheaper outside the city.)
Truck Highlights
• 5.3L V8 engine (strong and reliable)
• Four-wheel drive with the K-series 4x4 drivetrain
• Regular cab, short bed, classic body style
• New battery
• Solid frame
• Good tires
• Clean title
• Great mechanic’s special, work truck, or project platform
