Re: Ok...this truck is at $21,211...what will it sell for?

Okay, he's a dealer. He's not about to downplay anything about the truck, especially in todays economy.

The truck is over-restored. Granted, it's nice. But like others above have mentioned, there are some things that are obvious. The SPID says it has a side-mount spare, yet there is one hanging underneath the back of the bed. We know the wheels aren't right. If he really wanted to portray the truck as original, which he didn't, then he'd be putting the stuff on it that the SPID calls for, like hub caps and black tires and a side mount spare.

But we're suckers for a pretty face, right? It looks nice, but he's gonna get someone who doesn't know all of the ins and outs of these trucks and then they're gonna wanna join the board.....and we'll be nice to them when they show us what they just bought.

Re: Ok...this truck is at $21,211...what will it sell for?

i think that is one d@mn nice resto and i wonder whaty he means by "runs out 100%"?
does that means it runs out of gas 100% every time
the way i understood the truck info prosted he is just saying that its a low mile highdollar resto, done to look as original as possible
other then matching numbers engine i dont see any mention of the truck being 100% original
i bet the truck will pull 25k or close
i would drive the crap out of the truck
