Definitely a nice truck. There's a truck around here that color. I really like it! Very classy look.

All I can say is WOW! But I wonder why he didn't put a reserve on it to protect his rear hiney? Just imagine if only one person bids and he is stuck selling it for only $7500! I'm sure he has invested a lot of time and money.

That surprised me too. A single 7500. bid might actually take the truck. Those are B. Coddington 20's on it, so I can assure you he has atleast 3300 to 3500 in tires and wheels alone.

I guess he needs to sell it, so what he has in it really doesn't matter. I would like to see engine and undercarriage shots too. I wonder if it's as clean as he says...

Well, the NO RESERVE PRICE is not really a big deal. I've seen plenty of people end an auction early if they aren't getting enough for their stuff. It's a crappy way to run an auction, but it's true.

I definitely wouldn't spend that much money without seeing it first! It does look nice in pictures, but I've seen so many like that but when you get close up, they have all these little things that make the truck not so nice.

Holy Crap! That truck is in Sacremento! Maybe Daniel can go look at it. I'll bet $100, that it's got a junked out 305/700R in it.

Yeah, I guess I was looking at it from an ethical perspective. I never realized you could end an auction after the reserve price, or qualifying bid was made.

I agree about the pics. It could be a really nice truck, or a so-so truck with nice paint and wheels. Pics can make a bad truck look good, and a good truck look bad.

I recently bought a truck off of Ebay. The pics made it look awesome. I assumed that once I looked at it in person, it would be a different story. In the case, I was pleasantly surprised to find out the pics didn't do it justice. It was actually nicer than what they showed....

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

not bad, don't care for the late model updates (burb front), and not a fan of the wheels. I like the body tho, very clean looking.

I'd have to agree and say that is a very nice looking truck, from what the pictures show...
