Not a bad paint job they did to it. Incorrect tailgate, but decent looking. Why would you want to go to a regular cab when you got a ext cab? Is it intercooled or an early 91? If it were me, I'd pass and make yours right. But if you're selling yours, I'll start the bid at $800 .

I was going to say, "Why would you want to move backward to a non-intercooled model?"...but then I saw that it has the NV4500 and a newer seat! I'd jump on that!

FTD, is your truck paid for? Sounds like you're trying to get what you owe, no way you're gonna get that much IMO. Just keep it and fix it right.

dont let it sit with water in the cylinders, or you will end up with more problems.

Lets do the math

7700 for truck
3000 for maintanice that i should have done myself
200 for housing at tst should have done myself
250 for stack
220 turbo
25 gov spring
300 for body work
90 for starter
100 for starter again

172k now 178k 6k over a year and half period of school and minor pulling.
Unless my math is messed up thats 11885
lets subtract 2000 for deprication
9885
now minus lest say a grand to do the gasket

8885 need new tires heck lets get good ones

8000 shoot who pays what stuffs listed for

7000 dont know bout u guys but i think its worth 7k
Im already out 4k

the freakin engine alone is worth more than that. Im not gonna get screwed, Its paid for and more, last year i just droped 3k in the brakes steering and clutch. Not to mention the nickles and dimes this thing has costed me.
I was offered 4500 for engine and tranny. Im tired of fixing it. I get the starter done and it blows a gasket what next, what happens when i get the gasket repared. Dont wanna go down that road. Im gonna pull the head and take a look, then im gonna finish the body the best i can and sell the thing. get a better truck and start over. Its retarded to keep somethin thats gonna cost me more to maintain than to modify.
