Try Craigslist. Not much is selling right now with the market th way it is. People are trying to figure out how to keep there houses and afford fuel for there vehicle to get back and forth to work.

That's what I fig. with the struggle on fuel prices and everything else , I was hoping it was not that the truck was not worth buying , Yes it is in the classifieds here also .. and I am thinking of relisting on Ebay one more time ... just not sure , it gets expensive for advertising it and not selling , Is it priced too high or is it realistic for what it is ?

If it is a 1st Gen. Cummins truck that you are trying to sell, maybe your guardian angel is simply preventing you from making a dumb move.

A wise old man once told me that every man will have one good horse and one good woman in their life, the trick being to recognize when you had a good thing and not swap it off.

My wife wont let me sell mine (not that I want to) she likes it too much and says I have too much in it to sell, so I guess I found both.

I wouldn't even have mine at all if I listened to the wife when that subject came up.

Don't have a wife (and ain't likely to get one) but I can't see getting rid of something if: It's reliable within reason and YOU like it.

Ditching a decent first gen to do a Cutlass build doesn't sound reasonable to me...

YMMV!!!

Well the Cutlass is not the only reason and it is a 500 hp hot rod allready , I built it the first time 10 years ago , I just wanted to do it again a diff. way , I would rather someone who can appreciate the truck own it and use than sit here unused outside for who knows how long , it is garaged now but wont be for long ....

What do you mean when you say no use for it?

What will you drive if not that? How will you get parts to the machine shop etc?

I have 5 other vehicles and 2 projects to finish , And I just purchased another truck so this one is of no use to me and has to go or sit and be unused , I would rather any one of you 1st gen. pro's own it than it sit so I thought I would offer it up but that doesnt seem to be working .
