Talking I Rolled the Dice Boys...Bought a 67 CST sight unseen!

I just made a deal for a 67 CST LWB truck, sight unseen. Got a tip from a friend. Talked with the owner on the phone for close to an hour. I sent payment via Western Union, so there is no turning back...wish me luck!
Should be picking up the truck around 10AM tomorrow (Happy 4th Everyone!)

I know this thread is "Worthless without pics", but I do not have any...yet.

Good luck on your purchase! Buying them site unseen is a crapshoot, but I've had pretty luck with it a few times.

Re: I Rolled the Dice Boys...Bought a 67 CST sight unseen!

It all depends on the price and if the condition is what you had hoped. If it's a 1/2 decent truck for a 1/2 decent price it's not such a crap shoot. It is when you pay good money for what you hope to be a nice truck...Wishing you luck Zepp!

I dunno Tim, that's a little high. You could get that truck for $5000 around here easily! In fact, i have a few that are a tad nicer, and I would sacrifice them for $5000 if anybody is interested!
