CLICK HERE

GREASEMONKEY72 · 04-30-2008, 09:15 AM

ill admit that from the discription its built up well but i still think 22k might be a bit much

Bishops Trucks · 04-30-2008, 09:30 AM

That trucks not worth 22K and it damn sure isn't tubbed. I got tires that wide 275/60x15 on the back of mine. He's been watching to much Barrett Jackson.

hvychve · 04-30-2008, 09:35 AM

whats with the price? my gosh, thats robbery, its a short box ok fine, its not worth that it my eyes, I noticed he said you cant build one for that , I bet I could, very easily with money left over.... just my opinion

HoupPhotography · 04-30-2008, 09:46 AM

Hell yeah you can build that for 22K, definitly one that looks better than that one...IMO.

One thing is for sure, there is a lot out there in that price range in much better shape.

**El Jay** · 04-30-2008, 10:12 AM

It's Memorex, and we all know it!

Riveted1 · 04-30-2008, 10:51 AM

I looked at that same listing for about 2 seconds, went to another and then had to come back and see if I missed something!

First of all, if you're gonna ask that much for one of these trucks, you better put every upgrade/repair/replacement you have done to the truck in the listing. Second, you should at least WASH it and make it look presentable.

That being said, I don't know what makes this truck so special. Maybe someone should go look at it.... Maybe it's one of those Corvette optioned trucks that are so rare

**Palf70Step** · 04-30-2008, 12:22 PM

You would think they would at least wash the thing before the advertise it for that much

70GMCer · 04-30-2008, 01:59 PM

I've always been leary about those who talk mostly about what they have did to the motor than the vehicle. Tells me that they have ran the piss out of it....

1956cameo · 04-30-2008, 06:46 PM

Funny all he talks about in the ad is what he did to the engine. Then shows no picture of the engine! Based on the pictures that he did post it looks like your typical $5-7k truck. A good driver, or a good START for a project.

prg machine · 04-30-2008, 06:56 PM

Could be that this is for sale in a divorce property equity battle....

LOL.... familiar ground is it?? lol

Chevyholic · 04-30-2008, 08:10 PM

I'm sure he'll figure all of this out based on the silence of his phone. He's nuts. I agree with the above, if you're going to ask 22k for a classic truck, find the hose and soap.

I was thinking the exact same thing. Wash, wax, clean the interior, and get it OUT in the SUN for some good pics.
Who knows, it may be a gorgous truck worth 22K.

orange72c10 · 04-30-2008, 08:17 PM

Yeah I have to agree soap would ad a bit of flair to the ad, but not so much that i would pay 22k for the truck!!

chip46wis · 04-30-2008, 09:49 PM

Whole lot of $$$ for a filthy truck---one too many 0s maybe?

**Classic Heartbeat** · 04-30-2008, 11:17 PM

Who knows what it is realy worth, I am with you guys though, he should clean it up and take pictures in the sun. Pictures of the engine would be good too!!

Bishops Trucks, It has been tubbed. Look how wide the wheelhouses are. WES

like I said..............price it up , leave it dirty and take a few pictures, tell them next to nothing, lead into a bunch of odd and unknowns and it is perfect for someone who is not realy wanting to sell.................but perhaps is needing market survey for the situatuion I am in...............

PanelDeland · 04-30-2008, 11:38 PM

With all the grillework painted instead of polished,a basically stock interior, and so much emphasis on the engine I would bet it has had the wee run out of it.It doesn't matter what kind of vehicle it is,if I wanted to sell it and get top dollar,I would at least clean it up.IMHO there are much nicer trucks for sale on the BB list for much less $$$.
