Re: Is this worth it?
Just my opinion, but that looks like a nice truck to me. Spray bomb it.

Re: Is this worth it?
Short-wide? If it is a swb it looks pretty good for the price, definitely a good starting point to finish.

Re: Is this worth it?
If all the stuff the PO says he did on it is true, I would say jump on it.

Re: Is this worth it?
Just brake lines, rally wheels with tires, front end components, and the engine and tranny are worth the asking price if they were done right. If you're not afraid of the body work, go for it...

Re: Is this worth it?
I'm guessing SWB... definitely worth the $$$.
However, larger pics and a first hand look might change my vote.
