I have a chance to buy a 71 longbed truck that is complete minus the motor. This truck has the factory tach and factory air on it. The body is in decent shape, needs cab corners & rockers. What would you give for it?

if floors and roof drip rails, core support and inner fenders are ok and only needs engine $1500 to $2000 is ok - good a/c cabs are getting harder to find in Texas

I wouldn't want to pay $100, onless it was cherry (ok, maybe not CHERRY).
For that much, i would think it would need to be 100% complete (minus the obviouse) and in good shape.

oops, sorry y'all. I'm not THAT cheap....I ment $1000...not $100.

It would have to be pretty dang nice for $1000, but thats just my opinion.........

The guy is asking 600.00 for it, but I'm hoping to get it for around 400 or so.

Longhorn Man · 08-01-2002, 10:23 PM

600 sounds OK, $400 is much better.
