Sure, you pay for fuel and a southwest flight back to Denver. Sounds like a great time. I sent an email, waiting to hear back.

Looks like it needs cab braces and supports, or some serious body mount shimming. I'd be very careful when you look at it. Something's way out of whack. Other than that, looks like a nice truck!

I looked at it yesterday, I didn't even notice the body lines being off in the pictures but the definitely were by about 2-3" on one side, rust in the fenders... it ran great but not as clean as I thought it would be. Oh well

That is a reasonable price and what they SHOULD cost in this condition. Apparently this guy doesn’t watch Barrett-Jackson and all the car shows to get the idea he is sitting on a $20,000 truck.

Contrary to this one, there was a ragged out early 80’s C10 SWB in primer listed in Pueblo with the run of the mill greasy small block with JC Whitney chrome accessories covered in rust and oil. Even had a steering wheel that would allow one to drive in handcuffs. Asking price…..$10,000! I can’t find it now though, he must have sold it :lol:

Nah, that is the way they look when the rubber cab mounts give up. My truck looked like it had a bent frame too when the old dried out cab mounts broke many years ago and the cab fell down a few inches in the rear. Cheap and easy fix and very common on squares.

I agree with you on the price, it wasn't a bad truck I was just a little disappointed by the rust that I couldn't see in the pictures. If it were an automatic I would probably bought it for a plow truck.

What's wrong, can't you can’t drive a stick? :lol: :exit:

Funny, I never saw a plow truck with an automatic until I moved to Detroit. Apparently plow trucks with automatics are more common than I ever knew. Everyone I ever saw down here was a manual. I could definitely see how an automatic would be easier to operate when plowing though.

:lol: I always told my guys to stop bi%$#ing about driving the one truck I had that was a stick. Last week we I jumped in that truck and hated every second of it :lol: probably because of the size of the lots we do mainly. I sold the truck a couple days ago and bought an automatic.
