Not mine, but if this is for real it is a heck of a deal - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Saw this on the local Craigslist. Looks like a steal if it is as good as it looks.

Wow that is sweet!

mikewoods · 09-18-2014, 10:51 AM

Wow! That is super nice!

djgebert · 09-18-2014, 10:54 AM

I just bought a new truck last month or I would be on my way to look at it. Its almost worth a look to buy it and flip the thing. You could never begin to build it for that price. All it looks like it needs is some nice black carpet and a real blazer interior and that thing would look sweet!

71K20chevy · 09-18-2014, 11:40 AM

Wish I had the money, I'm in Fort Wayne...

9teen69 · 09-18-2014, 11:51 AM

Really nice and great price...you're right no way to build for that.

**kitsbeach** · 09-18-2014, 12:34 PM

Can't be true...unless an angry girlfriend posted it.!

**Hart_Rod** · 09-18-2014, 01:29 PM

I think it's a scam. Same ad was posted in Austin, TX...

djgebert · 09-18-2014, 01:42 PM

That's what I suspected, but you never know. But you know the old rule, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is!

Wasted Income · 09-18-2014, 01:47 PM

Yup, hartrod is right. It's a scam

**leddzepp** · 09-18-2014, 01:54 PM

Has anyone tried calling the listed phone number? I know if it were near me I would.

**Grumpy old man** · 09-18-2014, 02:01 PM

I just called and talked to him ,it's real and he still has it but said he has had a lot of calls and it's only been on there for 5 hours .When talking to him it sounded like he was out in a field and I kept loosing the signal . Somebody buy it before it's gone he has never heard of this forum .

djgebert · 09-18-2014, 02:06 PM

I just tried to call him and the phone just rang. Did he say the truck is in Angola? I so I may drive up and look at it.

**Grumpy old man** · 09-18-2014, 02:19 PM

I've been texting him it's the real deal he is selling it cheap because the engine needs rebuild ! he may just need fast money ?

**leddzepp** · 09-18-2014, 02:26 PM

Nice to see something with an appropriate price.

**Grumpy old man** · 09-18-2014, 02:31 PM

He told me it would be sold before I could get there to look at it ,Needs the money .

Buy it for $12,500 rebuild the motor and sell it on ebay for $25,000

So is it in Texas, or Indiana?

I hope it's legit, but there sure is a lot of sketchiness about it.

djgebert · 09-18-2014, 03:28 PM

Wow, that certainly makes one wonder what is really going on. Definitely don't wire the guy a deposit.

I would NEVER do this even if the ad seemed "legit"

Me neither. I never understood it, but I know many people will do it.

briank · 09-18-2014, 05:07 PM

Ad is gone now

Tinkermc · 09-18-2014, 05:13 PM

None of the links to it work now. Maybe he sold it or is aware everyone is on to his scam.

**davischevy** · 09-18-2014, 11:26 PM

I'm going to guess somebody sent that deposit. He has disappeared too completely.
