Smile Re: Buyer beware

The truck looks like a nice driver for someone who isn't too worried about the pedigree stuff.
However, at that pricing...you are entering into pedigree territory in my opinion.
If this truck was say....$9500?...that might be more in keeping with where its at with respect to the controversial stuff that isn't right on it.
That said, I think the weird panhard rod mount might be because that differential came out of a leaf spring truck rather than a trailing arm truck and to my knowledge the leaf spring diffs didn't have the mount hence the added bracket....correct me if I'm wrong guys.
If that is correct, then there has been a little more 'non-original' work put into the truck and the frame...and the diff.
It looks like the sellers have identified and admitted the problems so hopefully they price it fairly and it goes to a good home.
All Good
