man how much TLC does it need $5300 thats a deal, you could sell the body for parts and the motor on e bay and make twice what you paid.

Nice score, Scott! How's the black truck coming?

 

Just looked at the pictures in your gallery. Nice Truck! And one heck of a great deal!

Just out of curiousity, how did you find out about a repo in Texas?

 

I need to find one of those deals for my daughter.. We want her to have a truck as her first vehicle. We are NOT wanting to put her in a small car...
We are looking for a club cab..2 or 4wd and 5 speed hopefully..

Scott, that's a nice truck. Judging by the picture, you trailered it home? It's not drivable, or you just didn't trust it that far until you go through it?

EIther way, it's a nice rig, and going to stay totally stock right? .

 

That's an awesome deal! Plenty of room for slicks under those dually fenders, you just need some custom wheels.

 

Here's what it needs, 2 batteries, exh man gaskets and 3 broken bolts repaired, oil leak fixed. 4th gear syncro is bad, but it still goes in fine with the ole double clutch .. ,a serious cleaning, some exh work. and its road ready, was on the trailer cause my buddy with the Blue daully had 2 cars to deliver to DFW and we brought it and 1 car back. anybody nees a car or truck Hauled Call Mike or allyssa
at Mike rice trucking ( goes by PAoutlaw on here) He's the Man!!!
can't thank him enough... Scott, leave it stock???? right
actually it's getting an AFE, 5" single exh., gauges , and maybe a plate later. other than that i'm gonna leave it alone for now, It'll be at Kauffmans in oct. ( twin truck prob. won't, no time to build new setup)

amartinson, i found the thing in a very unusual spot on E-bay,
after a non paying bidder and a couple weeks of paper work i got it, there out there just keep looking.

 

I want my truck back

 

You still didn't get hurt on that deal.
Enjoy your new toy.
