Why can't I find a 1 ton dually 4x4 locally?

[hartbraker]

Is this line you have something that you are pursuing? Or did you mention it with the hopes that maybe someone on the board might be interested?

If you posted for others, I'd definitely be interested in seeing the truck and knowing what the asking price is. Thanks!

And $8,500 for both huh? I wasn't aware that you had a single wheel k30 as well. I'd definitely be interested in seeing that truck!

I am assuming you might be addressing me? On another board I have had several people asking if I would sell my silver 85 K30 dually (in avatar pic). I figured if they were really interested then I would put it out there but as most things go I have heard nothing back from the askers.

If I sold it I would have to replace it which I know where there is one that might fit the bill. I don't want to sell any of them but if the money was right then I might change my mind like anything else. Both of my K30's are dual rears. The 84 is a C&C and the 85 is a pickup. Not really sure I would part with the C&C after thinking about it since I posted that. It takes 6800 to buy the one that I would be looking at but doubt I ever buy it.

454, th400, 4.10 gears, dana 60 and 70, I'd have to check the T-case to fill-in that blank.
Black, red interior, needs rockers. There is a single wheel D70 4.10 rear available also, ( in case you'd want a regular bed), or a flatbed that fits it as is.

It is not going for much $ either.

I only posted this incase someone may be interested. (..and I'm sure it has a np205, I'll check to be sure).

I only just found this site but it saves you the hassle of having to search through every individual area in your state on Craigs list and just search the whole state. Here's the link for PA.

I use searchtempest.com Just type in what you are looking for, zip code and how far you want to look and it will search all the craigslist listings for you. Multiple states all at the same time.

They do exist but not many left around. I scored this past fall and picked up a clean 88' K30 Crew 4x4 with 130k. It would make you sick if you knew how cheap I got it, lol. I drove 4 hrs to get it. It was a trade in on a motorcycle at a bike shop. I don't think the bike shop did any research on how much these truck are worth.

Thanks for the heads up on this site you posted about. I have used it a few times briefly but seem like its pretty good. Just wish they showed the thumbnail pictures so I could look at the pic and tell if I wanted to click or pass on it. Allthough I have noticed that it doesn't pick up everyone that is on CL for some reason.

Where did you end up finding the frame? A guy from around Bloomington came up and bought my parts truck a while back for the frame. Glad you found one.

If all else fails look at http://www.car-part.com/ for a frame. Is it a 131.5" frame?

[79Betty]

No it's a 135" so C&C. I know of the gap but now i have room to flex! Lol

Well I went and looked at Dooley's truck on Saturday. The truck was exactly like advertised. So like a fool I passed on it. Now I am regretting it. I don't think I'll ever see such a low mile truck again let alone be able to buy one. Oh well I guess live and learn.

They are out there. Just have to take time to look for them and patience. I do a lot of searches and come across alot of nice trucks. I dont post all of them but they are out there.

Here's one my friend is selling. He bought it for the built big block to put in his hot rod. This one has almost no rust, still has the th400/205 and D60, good tires, and the interior is very clean. It was prepped for paint by the previous owner. He only wants $1200, but its way over here in CA.

[jbailly]

KrazyRay,
Is the engine still in it? If it is how built is it? I don't want to have to run 110 octane. Are all the pieces there to put it back together? Do you have any more pictures? Engine? Frame? Drivers side? Heck even figuring roughly $2000 purchase with shipping and 3-4 for paint I could have a pretty nice truck for less than 10. You can pm me if you don't want everyone to see the pictures.
Jon

Here's some more pics

[jbailly]

Cool. Thanks for the pictures. You didn't answer my questions though.

Does it still have the engine in it? If so how built is it? And what engine is it?
Does your friend still have all the parts (grill, bumpers, lights...)?
Thanks,
Jon

[KrazyRay]

The 454 engine was built a while back by Roseville engine machine. I don't know exactly they put in the engine, but they paid $5000 to have it built. It will pull anything and runs on pump gas. It is still in the truck and its $2200 for the complete truck. This truck runs and drives great right now and will pass anything but the gas station. All of the other parts are in the bed. They were taken off for paint.

[jbailly]

I am going to try and get this one. He only has this one picture posted, but I don't think I can beat it. $8450

Here is the pic! Good luck, this one is awesome!

[jbailly]

I wish I knew how to make these big like Joe did. I am pretty sure I am going to buy this one. I don't think I'll find one much nicer.
