This is the truck i'm looking at - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

What do you guys think? Is it worth 300 bucks if he'll take it..he wants 500..but there is no way i'm paying him that much..

weasel29gm · 02-01-2003, 01:40 AM

No pic ?

neonlarry · 02-01-2003, 01:48 AM

Looks like it is worth $300 to me. As long as it runs, I would think it might be worth $750 to the right person. But, I can't tell a lot from those pics.

weasel29gm · 02-01-2003, 01:53 AM

Yea for 300.00 I think Iwould try to find one with less rust unless you want to practice. LOL!!!

Longhorn Man · 02-01-2003, 01:53 AM

I like the 2 tone paint.
If it runs and is dependable, then any truck is worth a grand easy.
Where is that thing? That looks ALOT liek columbus to me...the hilltop area to be exact.

Myride · 02-01-2003, 02:13 AM

buy it

O'l Buck · 02-01-2003, 02:38 AM

Buy it.....if the truck I just bought had black doors and a good bed, it would look almost identical.....right down to the different colored interior. Only I think the one I just bought is rustier.

mikep · 02-01-2003, 02:41 AM

He had "The Club" on that thing ? I guess people will steal anything if its not welded to the floor.

**Palf70Step** · 02-01-2003, 09:10 AM

Not all the pictures showed up for me, but looks like it would be worht the money.

lunatic · 02-01-2003, 09:24 AM

I only caught a couple of pictures here,but from what I saw,I say buy it,they ask for more up in these parts for trucks in aloy worse shape....

>X< · 02-01-2003, 12:07 PM

buy it. my parts truck is that same color

minibike · 02-01-2003, 12:19 PM

If the firewall is clean, it looks like a bargain.

BigChevMan · 02-01-2003, 03:16 PM

The truck is in dayton Ohio.

it has a 350/350 engine/tranny combo in it. The tranny is blown, but the guy says the engine ran when he parked it.

It is located in Dayton, Ohio.

The bed is really solid..for some reason I can't get the pics to load up of the bed....

if the guy will take 300 bucks I think i'm going to buy it

chevypete396 · 02-01-2003, 06:38 PM

I could tell the tranny was blown from the pic's LOL. Anytime you look at a truck for sale that has a quart of auto tranny fluid on the floor board... get ready. Usually means theres trouble because the guy was to frusterated to even try to hide it : )

Still, I would buy it in a second! Stick to those $300 dollar guns- You'll get the truck for that, I'll bet... Pete.

JHickson6 · 02-01-2003, 07:42 PM

It looks like an oil burner, judging by the quart in the cab, but hey don't all good engines!!

Are you looking for parts or a restorable project, its defiently a good parts truck, and i've seen worse looking trucks restored to amazing shape so, i'd say if the price is right go for it!

treefrog · 02-01-2003, 08:05 PM

If there is anything salvageable on it it's worth 500. TF
