thankins93 · 11-01-2011, 11:05 PM

not 2500, good guess though

Your41Plague12 · 11-01-2011, 11:17 PM

In my neck of the woods, that's probably a $3500+ truck. Everything is rotted out here. I'm eager to see what you got it for. Was I high or low?

thankins93 · 11-01-2011, 11:19 PM

if you say thats a 3500 dollar truck where your from i feel like i stole it from who i bought it from!

**old Rusty C10** · 11-02-2011, 08:43 AM

i buy trucks like that about $800

sumran · 11-02-2011, 10:18 AM

I tihink that looks like a nice truck. If you posted additional pictures we could be more certain.

You stole that for $1000. Nice ride!

sumran · 11-03-2011, 03:50 PM

That is a great looking truck, especially for that price. I have not seen that color combo before, but I like it. I like the dark color on the roof. When you post more pictures, shoot a few of the interior. It would be nice to see how they carried the colors inside.

thankins93 · 11-04-2011, 11:51 PM

will do i should get some Saturday im degreasing the motor to see where an oil leak is coming from. and i think i need the buy an electric choke spring but no job to big for a back yard fix.

thankins93 · 11-05-2011, 10:22 AM

here is some mroe photo's for yall.

thankins93 · 11-05-2011, 10:23 AM

and one more

MalibuSSwagon · 11-06-2011, 04:45 AM

Good deal.

I got mine for the low price of $1

sumran · 11-06-2011, 07:08 AM

Inside looks good as well. The truck would have been a great deal even if the interior was worn out. But it is solid inside and out. I don't remember seeing another one of these trucks with your multi-brown color combination. I am no expert, just going by memory. If I remember correctly, Ford used more brown during that time period than GM. Perhaps Keith or another member has info on production levels on various colors.

The lighter colors are difficult to clean, but the detailing guys have magic spray bottles that make it look almost new. I have had good luck with 409 spray with multiple applications.

thankins93 · 11-08-2011, 12:58 AM

i have to fix the electric choke nad a small oil leak on it but other then that its an awesome truck

Your41Plague12 · 11-08-2011, 01:00 AM

For cleaning up the interior, use "Awesome" on the carpet and seat. It'll take any and all stains out and make it look brand new.

thankins93 · 11-08-2011, 10:55 PM

i think my oil pan is leaking, anybody know if the gasket is hard to replace?

*nekkidhillbilly* · 11-08-2011, 11:48 PM

the engine has to be at least lifted up if not taken out

thankins93 · 11-09-2011, 12:16 AM
