can it be true that these trucks have gotten this high?

bikes&bowties · 08-22-2010, 06:30 PM

not around here... I paid $900 for a truck that looks nicer than that

ol yellow 72 · 08-22-2010, 06:36 PM

thats my thoughts also, i called this guy jst to see what it was and he gave me this bs story bout how he had just spend almost $10,000 building this truck. i laughed so hard i had to hang up.

clearly you guys arent looking at all that custom metal bending done to the front fender....Not to mention the custom paint... i mean hell even earl scheib doesnt do a job like that. Im thinking that truck is worth at least 2500 pesos

That custom metal bending looks like it was done at a demolition derby.

If thats true (the 10k) I feel a whole lot better about how much money i spent on my truck...

Restrorob · 08-22-2010, 09:49 PM

That's a typo guy's.....It's $250 and he has $1000 in it.....

Obviously this is another one of those "rare" trucks with all those "great modifications".

My 6 year old could "modify" that fender to look better than it is given a mini-sledge!

No doubt about it. Just another "rare" one (owning it).

That's it's worth ** to him**.
I've seen better QQn trucks rusted out parked next a chicken coop.

all kidding aside, the guy probably dropped close to $1500 for tires and wheels. We all know how much it cost to rebuild a 400 sbc? He probably has way more than $2500 in but what someone paid doesn't mean he can get that money back out of it. The body looks like crap but heck he feels like that's value of it. Around here maybe $1000-1500?

Wow I feel alot better about the 79 beater I'm fixing up to sell. LMAO

I just wish that guy would have been my auto insurance adjuster when I turned in a claim last year. Bet I would have got enough to fix the wife's car and buy a house.
