Buying guide
I'm thinking of buying a 72 ShortBox, I've found one but its a long distance transaction so I'm looking for a list of questions to ask. I would not pay the full amount till I got there, but I'm looking for a list of questions to help qualify before I fly out. What would your top 10 questions be?

Re: Buying guide
Welcome. The first most asked question would be about any rust issues.

Re: Buying guide
Where is the truck located at, what type of options, pictures, where did you find out about it? I would love to look at it, and I am sure that if it was close to other board members they would check it out and give you an honest estimate of value and condition
