Re: yes or no to this truck

There's more to a truck than pictures. What can you tell us about it?

Re: yes or no to this truck

Hard to tell from the little pics/info but since you're in WA these trucks are a dime a dozen so pic the one with least amount of rust of best drivetrain depending on what you're comfortable doing.

Re: yes or no to this truck

YES we really can not see a whole bunch of details from those current pictures. It does take some breaking down and getting into the mechanical aspect to see what it is really worth.

Re: yes or no to this truck

looks like a 69 long bed with a running motor and I assume automatic. the motor and trans would be worth $800 alone. Will be happy with drum brakes? Will you be happy with the long bed? I you will end up doing a disc brake conversion and a swb conversion requiring cutting and welding and finding a bed, id say find a 71 or 72 swb for $2000 or $3000. just my opinion because it will cost less in the end. 71 and 72 already had disc and 5 lug and power steering and power brakes so that would save a lot of work and money

Re: yes or no to this truck

but if it stops well and runs good and you plan to keep the long bed...buy it. $1800 is pretty good and most any truck in that range is going to need floor patch work and rockers and cab corners and probably the part you cant see behind the front fender-door area. also look and push right above the rear view mirror mount to see if the inside roof panel is rotten. that bugs some people to know its bad there. mine is like that and I don't know if its a big deal but at the moment im not going to mess with it.

Re: yes or no to this truck

Was this a craiglist ad? Post the ad and we can see the pics better.

I also understand if you're trying to keep it under wraps, so if it is cragslist, if you just click on the pic and save it makes it tiny. If you "open" the pic so it's big, then save it, they save a lot bigger.
