I got my rig '83 GMC 2500 for $800 last December. It's got a 6.2/t400/np208/ dana 60/70.
247,000 KM on the odometer. It got the Hi-serria package and it was originally sold in Canada
It had new radiator, starter, alt, injectors, glow plugs, rotors, caliper, pads, shoes, wheel cylinder, brake hardware, drums, exhaust, shocks, tires, 2 batteries and cables, e-brake cables, all installed about 3 months before I bought it.
New in Boxes, case of each: fuel/water seprators: fuels filters: oil filters, 15 glow plugs, blower motor, A/C (evap, compressor, condensor, hoses, orfice),4 gallons oil, 2 extra new batteries, brake pads, 1 ton tie rods and steering linkage, alternator, fuel tank selctory switch, wiper motor, heater switch, 12 gans of antigel,

It's ugly but runs good, I don't think its that slow like some people have said on the web. It gets crappy milage, under 10 (any clue why?). Its also hard to put fuel in it because of the angle of the fuel filler hose that goes down to the tank, anybody have this problem before? The engine is supposed to have around 70k on it. I got the old heads with the truck and the old injector pump which was working when the old engine was removed.

I towed a 18' enclosed car trailer with it(empty). Only thing I pulled with it, the truck didn't think much of it. -

Got any pics?

Welcome to the board. Just a little fyi, if that front Dana 60 is a kingpin axle, it alone is worth what you paid for the truck. Even if it has ball joints, it's still worth what you paid. The truckload of spare parts just sweetens the deal. One good thing about that body style is there is good aftermarket support for it.
As for you getting crappy fuel mileage, the turbo 400 is partly to blame. It's a very good transmission, but its lack of overdrive is part of what's killing your mileage. That, and I would venture to guess your truck has 4.10 gears. I can't remember if that came with lockout front hubs, but if it didn't, they will help your mileage a little bit also.
The fuel filler neck on those trucks has always been a pain. I had an '86 dually that was the same way. I ended up making a bigger fill tube for it with a straighter shot to the tank. Look behind the fuel door where the tube is and it will make sense.
Post some pics up when you get a chance.
