worthless truck on EBay - Page 2 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

ALASKA ALUMINUM BEAR · 05-06-2004, 09:22 PM

i think the point that bothers me so much about this truley stupid rig-is the fact that he put no thought or real design into the lift--it looks as if he just welded a box onto the top of springs,,,very ugly stuff....but if this rig was in the far north--alaska-yukon--it would sell in a flash for a moose buggy---we have thousands of similar stupid rigs up here--that folks go hunting in....i believe i would rather walk....

next fall--when all the rigs come out on trailers for hunting--moose caribou-etc--i'll snaap a few photo's of them---so you can all see a weird varity of such vechiles--but some of them up here do fill a purpose...but mostly their broken all the time...but i'll post some with-hot tubs--look out towers---and some stering wheels 12 feet in the air-on a boats tuna tower or flying bridge only on a truck....it's a real laugh to see them every were in the fall here...and 40 grand--he must think everyone -is a real idiot...

Junk like that is what brings out the lift-laws. Yet this MORON is proud of that thing!
Even if you can get past the nasty "rigged" suspension, there is no point to being that high! It's so far above the tires..........it just looks wrong!
5" of bodylift............just as shakey!
The body is not even nice?
40,000?????????????????? HILLARIOUS

I think it's Fugly.

nitor · 05-08-2004, 08:47 PM

I wouldn't drive it. Ugly.

I'm crushed! I can't believe that you guys are picking on my fine fab work. You should be ashamed of yourselves and consider whether or not you are picking on a board memeber! All the work and hours I put into that and you guys make me feel like I don't know how to build a rig! Shame on you!!!

Joey-D · 05-09-2004, 03:36 AM

Your kidding, right?

Mudder · 05-09-2004, 07:35 AM

Nope he's serious!!!!!!!!!!!

687980chevy · 05-09-2004, 10:27 AM

Some lucky guy(w69chevy0) got it on ebay for $3107.12, just think a $40,000 truck for 3100 bucks!! What a deal!!!

Bluegoose972 · 05-09-2004, 08:54 PM

No way the PONT is serious. That truck is form PA and PONT is from my home state...OREGON!!!

Go Beavers!

Pont · 05-09-2004, 09:43 PM

lol, of course I wasn't serious, just had to break the mood a bit and change the tempo of this thread. Sorry if I created an confusion.

Joey-D · 05-09-2004, 10:57 PM

3100 for angle iron scrap, I thought metal was getting expensive, but goddamn

**jerry moss** · 05-16-2004, 09:59 AM

my guess is the 40K was spent on U-joints, he did say they owned it 20 years. with those goofy angles i seriously doubt that a set would last more than a few minutes

that P.O.S. is dangerous---and illegal here in sunny california with our frame height laws.

Opper77 · 05-17-2004, 08:50 AM

...well with steel at its present price, there might be 40k worth of square tube there now.....
