I got dibs on the tool box!!!! And them sweet wheels!!

Re: Who wants to help me find a new truck?
 

No one asked me...But after dumping in thousands into a pile of parts...which will be a very nice truck in a while...I wish I could have started with that $3,500 truck.
If you don't have the cash, I bet you could find it somewhere in order to save yourself a lot of money and heartache down the line.

My $.02 only.

Also, I can say for sure that when you work with people here on the Forum, you get what you pay for.

Okay. That's my $.03.




Why do this when you can get a sweet looking driver like the CST?

Re: Who wants to help me find a new truck?
 

Actually the truck in post #22 looks like a pretty good truck. Fairly solid and straight. Surface rust mostly. And a healthy list of options. I'd jump on it if it was 2k-3k range.

Re: Who wants to help me find a new truck?
 

Yeah I'm thinking the big block, auto, a/c and cruise make it a must have. With any luck I'll be picking it up Saturday.

Re: Who wants to help me find a new truck?
 

It is also a highlander.

Re: Who wants to help me find a new truck?
 

yes.

Re: Who wants to help me find a new truck?
 

Any other deals guys? I'm pretty set on the truck in post 22, but who knows it could always sell b4 I get down there.

Re: Who wants to help me find a new truck?
 

I think I would dig up the difference. You will have a lot more in another truck bringing it up to that one.

Re: Who wants to help me find a new truck?
 

I agree. The 69' truck for 3500 is nice, but big block, a/c, highlanders don't pop up for sale every day and I don't have any way to dig up the difference.

Re: Who wants to help me find a new truck?
 

:lol: Yeah. Already have a set of rallys that I can put on that truck. If I end up picking it up probably just freshen up the interior and drive it.

Re: Who wants to help me find a new truck?
 

Well guys I'm going to be heading out tomorrow morning to look at the big block truck and picking up a cab. If I don't buy the big block truck I'm going to look at another truck in OKC on the way home.

Thanks for the help and opinions.

Re: Who wants to help me find a new truck?
 

Congrats on PPT196. Very nice.

I'd say that, at 109, I'd kinda expect the pics to have a red tone rather than blue.:lol:

Have fun with the truck.
BTW, I think I've stopped at that place before (Dickeys next to the Family Store) .

Re: Who wants to help me find a new truck?
 

lol on the "no license, no problem" sign! Sure, you don't need a drivers license for us to insure you! WTF

Congrats on the hard loaded 71! Nice truck, very nice option list.

Re: Who wants to help me find a new truck?
 

yeah, it was hot.

thanks
