Close to what he said, it really isn't a truck as it sits but a body shell with a fresh engine that goes with it. With the lowrent front suspension setup you have to wonder what else is cobbled up that you have to fix.

You know my opinion on "patina" and for me that means an automatic 50% off the asking price deduction unless it is already priced low to begin with.

I see a 1500 to 2000 dollar project truck that has a 750.00 drivetrain in it making it worth somewhere between two and three k as is.

My ongoing truck projects:
48 Chev 3100 that will run a 292 Six.
71 GMC 2500 that is getting a Cad 500 transplant.
77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
