That's pretty nice! ....I notice that no price was listed.

**special-K** · 06-09-2009, 06:01 AM

Nice Nice Nice!!! But,"Please,only serious buyers"???? Kinda hard to know how serious you are until you know the price

.Is,"How much is it?".a serious inquiry?

jim zag · 06-09-2009, 06:10 AM

Wish it was MINE!

72BlckButy · 06-09-2009, 06:19 AM

Wow, what a time capsule... anyone going to check the price?

big_al_71 · 06-09-2009, 07:50 AM

lol exactly. He probably hopes someone will call and offer him 100k or something.

Sheesh...if you are selling something, post a price!! Whenever I run across something with no price, I stop bothering with it.

Shaky · 06-09-2009, 08:51 AM

It's too nice. I wouldn't know what to do with it.

**fine69** · 06-09-2009, 08:59 AM

When they put that stuff in the ad the price is obviously high.

I wouldnt waste my time calling.

**special-K** · 06-09-2009, 11:42 AM

I`m alot more serious when it`s cheap.

**Joesjunk** · 06-10-2009, 04:31 PM

I just emailed for a price, Im sure its way over priced!! Ill post when I get the price

**Joesjunk** · 06-18-2009, 07:02 PM

$16,500.00!!! Nice truck, but a 3/4ton and without A/C....good luck with that.

maddog1331 · 06-18-2009, 11:57 PM

That is a lot of money, but honestly I expected him to be asking a LOT more. Kudos for him for not being totally insane, it is just possible someone will buy it at that price.

But not likely....

**special-K** · 06-19-2009, 06:15 AM

Low miles is one thing,aging is another.It`s not exactly a "like new" truck like a mechanically restored truck is.I guess a museum won`t care.

**DANTIP** · 06-19-2009, 07:23 AM

Good Work Joe!

I would pay 10K for it if it's as nice as it looks. No A/C and the jumbo West-Coast mirrors hurt it.

At first glance I thought it was all white but now I notice the Grapefruit Yellow color, NICE!

Zeke · 06-19-2009, 07:58 AM

Not trying to start an argument, just would like opinons. When it comes to these trucks is milage really a selling point if its not documented? I know a guy with a nice 69 4x4 he's owned since new with 72,000 on odometer but actually 372,000 with 2 engine rebuilds. Maybe it's just me but as old as these trucks are I just find it hard to believe there are very many with less than 100,000 miles on them.

**DANTIP** · 06-19-2009, 08:08 AM

Zeke,

I owned a '72 SWB 4x4 from Anaconda, MT that had 36,000 original miles, always garaged with original paint, etc. The truck looked and drove like a 2-year-old well cared for truck. No wind noise, perfectly-closing doors, etc. made the truck fun. There are others like me that value the stone-stock/original look and feel.

If this truck is what it is advertised/appears to be I would consider it a very appealing survivor. Often with the "survivor" trucks you have to deal with things like big mirrors and no A/C, but remember "They are only original ONCE". Many people on this board could assemble a truck with the most appealing options and would look incredible. Survivor trucks often aren't as cosmetically appealing but are novel due to the low-miles and excellent care.

JMHO!

Dan, Very well said!!

Number98 · 06-19-2009, 03:30 PM

That price is a bit high, I agree..... plus it is all the same color and no primer..... what would we want with that??

MrGoodpliers · 06-19-2009, 05:29 PM

What's up with the black on the inside of the fenders?
