Agree to disagree. We all know that the 4x4's didnt come BB in this era, but it's an auto (a TH350 at that). Doesn't sound stock for 68 to me. Not to mention that dashboard hack job? Someone got carried away with a die grinder and cutoff wheel, way carried away. Would make me worry about the quality of other work done to it. I say it looks like a maybe 7500 truck at most, and I sure wouldn't pay anywhere near that for it.

Re: 68 BBC 4x4 Buy it know! ONLY....

NICE not 20grr nice though

You can see the body is not all lined up straight and who knows how much bondo might have been used if any. look at the hood for one.

for that price it has to be closer to perfect than that.

7500-12000 I think is a good start.

I agree, Probably spent their money on the eye candy more than the meat & taters like cab mounts & bearings.

Re: 68 BBC 4x4 Buy it know! ONLY....

that truck shows up every once in awhile... check out his feedback...93.7% says a lot. I think 10-12K is average for a decent truck but after the price I saw today it doesn't surprise me that he is askin 20K.

Re: 68 BBC 4x4 Buy it know! ONLY....

Some dumbell will drop 19 on it. Look at all those dumbells at Barret Jackson paying ridiculous money for rusted out, beat to death, then restored (re-hacked) , junk muscle cars. A million dollars for a Hemi Cuda? What the hell on earth happened there? This is a Chrysler remember. What a dope. Sorry for the rant. I'm done.

Re: 68 BBC 4x4 Buy it know! ONLY....

I would have to look at it before I would offer anything for it. Too many little things that could be covering up bigger things. And the hood does look like crap and is a very easy fix.

Re: 68 BBC 4x4 Buy it know! ONLY....

I wanna see a pic of the engine cross member myself.

Seen the x-members cut in half and then used square tubing as spacers to drop in a big block.

IMPO if a person saw this truck in person, it wouldn't show as nice.

E-Bay sale adds like this one kinda p!ss me off because it takes alot away from the truly nice restoration jobs all due to sketchy advertising. (C/10 4x4 kinda stuff) <
Freakin' used car salesmen

Re: 68 BBC 4x4 Buy it know! ONLY....

i actually saw this truck when i was visting my brother and sister in law in scottsdale summer before last, it didn't show half as nice as it looks in these pictures, and the same guys still have it. the drivers side window was down about 3 inches and there was dust on everything. One tire as almost flat and it had a puddle of oil under the motor and trans from sitting so long. Not to mention the dash work and the non-stock options.

Re: 68 BBC 4x4 Buy it know! ONLY....

I am not that familiar with this vintage truck and I can see some things that make me wonder where he comes up with that price?

On a side note, on EB when the feedback is withdrawn does that still count as negative or neutral or nothing at all? This guy has a lot of with drawn feedback.
