I am thinking no more than $4000.

billtoothaker · 02-26-2004, 04:26 PM

Given that it is 13 YO and 190K I would stay under $2000, I would be suspicious that they don't show the damaged side, and the rear looks like duct tape over rust?

stelth2002 · 02-26-2004, 04:31 PM

the other pic, my bad Im with ya on that. Im not going to give over 2k for it. The only reason im considering it is the guy wants to trade me toyotas. I have a 2wd beater that i drive to school. And i could get this one. I just want to know if you guys/gals think its a good deal. Thanks

Trade truck's and buy a porta power to push the cab pillar back out.. 1500$ would be more than fair but only you can make the call after seeing it for yourself..

stelth2002 · 02-27-2004, 02:24 PM

Anyone else have comment?

boraxman · 02-27-2004, 03:21 PM

I would guess (having the same motor w/ 31" tires) That it will be way underpowered w/ 33" tires unless the gears have been changed.

stelth2002 · 02-27-2004, 06:28 PM

Im not to worried about that. As im going to probably use the truck to goto school for the remainder of the year, fix it and sell it to put more money into my college and 67. Wish me luck as im going to go look at it tonight, hopefully its not damaged to bad and i can pick it up.

oldsub86 · 02-27-2004, 06:42 PM

If you cannot get it cheap pass it by. It has too much wrong with it to be a bargain unless the price is real cheap. I'd say it is a gamble at $1K. Things like this can nickle and dime you until you wish you had just paid the price for a decent truck in the first place. I'd rather buy one that needs a motor than one that needs a body.

**NGN** · 02-28-2004, 02:28 AM

I wouldn't think the book value could be more then $1,500.00 on one with the body in decent shape ( clean , and maintained that is ) with that many miles. I agree with oldsub86 also.

You would be surprised, mines a 92 standard cab w/ 155000mi and it books for 2650. These trucks have high resale.
Wonder if he picked it up?

RAT-AT-TACH · 02-28-2004, 02:52 PM

as everyone can see its more than likely been rolled,which means the guy beat the piss out of it off road.......i.m.o. i wouldnt bother i think your going to find yourself buried with problems,even basic repairs and panel replacements on that will put you in the thousands.

PanelDeland · 02-28-2004, 05:24 PM

It's prolly worth a grand at best and then onlt to someone wanting to build an off-road ride.I think it was prolly totaled by the ins. company or is totaled due to the cost of repairing it.

LudwigTheMad · 02-29-2004, 06:34 PM

I'd never buy a rollover......

I was in a rollover.....and the insurance callled it a total.

this was in 1989 and the truck was a 87 nissian p/u worth 6,000........

there will be lots of dammage you cant see.....

I agree, I had an '87 with 31's and the 22RE. It was a dog! I had to get a good running start to go over the Trinity River bridge on I-10. If I did not get a good start, I would be doing about 45 when I reached the top, and that was floored.

That is unless it has had a gear swap.
