Re: How much should I pay?
I would drive the parts of town that you don't normally drive and see if you see any old forgotten projects that are sitting in someones back yard. Or put the word out to your friends. That's how I found mine, an old friend came up to me and said that his neighbor was 90 years old and looking to get rid of his old fishing truck... he died nine months after selling it to me. You just never know what the story is on some of these trucks you see on the side of someones house, they might have just not gotten around to listing it yet. But I totally agree with 71, buying a whole bunch of parts that someone says go together is putting a lot of faith in the unknown. there is a guy on craigs list in victorville that had asperations of going into business rebuilding the 67-72 years and accumulated around 50 trucks, he kind of lost interest in the venture and has been trying to sell the rest of his stock. from the listing he has quite a lot but he never has any pics.
