Looked at the 72 today

Well I drove up and looked at that 72 C10 today. It was the truck I talked about in my first post. Here's the link:

As a reminder the cab is not original to the bed/frame. The 402 that is in there is original to the cab though.

It does have some rust in the floor, a dent in the passenger door, cracked windshield. The new shocks work like crap. That truck bounces horribly. Couldn't see any leaks. I totally forgot to take a picture of the SPID but it did have the 402 listed.

Anyway I offered $5,000 for it and they said no. The lowest they'd go is $6,300 and they keep the buddy buckets. I'm a little bummed. Oh they do have the title for the Cheyenne Super cab that's on it.

So now knowing that the 402 is original the cab does that affect the $6500 asking price or does it not matter because it's still a Frankenstein truck with a base C10 bed and frame? Oh and he does have the owners manual and warranty info too.

Am I dumb for still looking at this truck? Thanks for the help guys!
