I think that is a fair price. I bought my 79 for 3500. Everything else even close to 3500 was pure crap.

My son bought me an 87 R-10. No rust holes in the body. Only minor surface rust underneath. It was from Az. I live in Joliet, IL. He paid $5,500 for the truck. It was worth every dollar. These trucks in Joliet are rust buckets. I would say it should be worth $3,000. But it will need a lot of work. Mine was already lowered when he bought it. I had to have it painted, the interior done, PS box., rear glass, EGR valve, wiper motor, Radio and speakers, Intake gasket, and a few other things. Prepare to spend money. Let us know if you buy it.

Thanks for all of the input guys. This is awesome! This is definitely something that i would be taking on expecting to put money into it. This is going to be something i work on with my father to restore and at the end of the day, thats why i want the truck. My dad had an 87 and i always loved that truck. Dont know why, but i did. He has kicked himself everyday for getting rid of it. This is going to be our project and restoration. Honestly, i am looking forward to every bit of it. Thanks again guys, and we are off in the morning to pick up the truck!
