Not sure what the reserve is, but this truck is NOT as nice as it looks in
the pictures. Wasn't sure where to post this so move it if needed. Craig

What's wrong with it?

LUV2XCLR8 · 08-29-2007, 06:30 PM

You interested? I'd be surprised if the reserve is under $10K and it's
not a $10k truck, not even close. However this is JMHO and my $.02

A/C truck, but no A/C, some stuff you can't see in the pic's, etc.....

whats on the drivers inner fender? is that cruise control?

I have read and been told that when you by off ebay you are rolling dice. If anyone is bidding on a truck one should have a friend take a look at it if you are not avaliable to do so. Just my .00000002 cents worth. Thanks for the heads up.

LUV2XCLR8 · 08-29-2007, 09:34 PM

Yes it is cruise control, knowing the owner it's NOT factory. I can take pic's
if I have to of it. I always liked it till I got up close and personal with it

I bought this truck off ebay. It also looked nicer online than in person. It ended up being a good buy though because I sold it for a nice profit after I repaired a few things.

Nope, just interested in what is hidden that we can't see.

Looks like the heater core is by passed.
just a fyi.

I picked up machines from ebay.
I will never buy a car or truck from ebay without seeing it first.
At least show up with cash and look before I pay.

Guy who built it ownes a body shop, alot of time / effort went into it, but
it has been almost 5 years since it was built and stuff is starting to wear.
the guy who ownes it now washes it and that's it. It has nicks, scratches,
underneath looks kinda crappy. I think the new owner is not mechanically
inclined so I would be leary. I'm 99% sure the reserve is over $10K, maybe
once worth it, but I have seen much nicer rigs on here for less than that.
