Ya, those little car lots do that a lot. This one has some decent looking trucks sometimes though.

Looks like a smokin deal...

Warrens69GMC · 06-15-2011, 07:26 PM

Why go thru all of the work to leave the dash/A pillars painted another color?

I might check the body work with a magnet

**Classic Heartbeat** · 06-15-2011, 07:38 PM

Looks to be originaly a big block truck. At least it has the high tunnel. I didn't see the hole for the 4 speed. WES

There's a tailgate for sale in the parts forum that costs more than that.

Good buy.

the 4cyl V8 thing reminds me of an ad that ran in the Deer Park paper one week

"2000 Dodge Decoder"

oh please.. you mean a truck you can actually haul stuff in etc? I didnt even click this ad... just sayin long beds are sexy.. I have yet to of ever bought a swb. They are cool for show trucks (imho, not to upset anyone) but lwb are MUCH easier to use to haul.

68 IRON · 06-16-2011, 11:19 AM

Liz is right shorts are cool...but longs you can USE and CRUISE!!! Very nice truck.

For sure. $1995 is a killer price....but that is a dealer selling it, so I would be even more wary.

crap excuse?? We all have opinions, yours is that LWB are ugly, mine that LWB are more useful. The only crap thing I see is your replies, its like talking to a drunk... Go off on a tangent, only opinion worth having is your own, and throw out whiny and baby icons.. which honestly just made yourself look that much more asinine.

I am not gonna get into a I had this or that debate with you.. I have owned pro street vehicles as well, owned a Musclecar parts store in the 90s and been on the track many times. None of that has a damn thing to do with you crapping up this dudes thread with your LWB SUCKS mentality.. Its just like the GMC is better than Chevy or ELCamino is really a truck.. all of these are debated weekly on the site, and usually end due to some loudmouth opinionated ass ruining it for all.

In closing I offer you this

perhaps after popping a few, you would have a better time posting.

Thanks.

Kevin.. thank you for your post. That is valuable info that I am sure is appreciated by the OP. I really do understand more everyday, your not wanting to post due to immature folks around here. It is a shame.

68 IRON · 06-17-2011, 11:10 AM

Tex, have you dealt with this dealer before? Is he like one of those "junkyard build" guys on the reality tv series? It would really suck if he were. Was the soup can original for that year?

Not at all. He's just in one of those cheap tote-the-note used car rows on the highway. Judging by his place and the area, he knows what cars are worth. I wouldn't expect too good a deal from the place. Maybe fair, maybe more, but those guys aren't gonna give anything away too cheap.
