Rob Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 http://newyork.craigslist.org/jsy/cto/3153131964.htmlI still get a chuckle every time I look at this guys' advertisements. It's priced to sell alright. No left tank, trans on rear rails behind cab, quite rusty in the roof........Truck looks like it's ready for scrap yet it's "priced to sell" at $4200.00 and his closing: "Come and get it"!Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

The stuff advertised by that party is usually exhorbitantly priced and this may be a reason.This one is also listed by the same party and is a little more in line with reality.http://newyork.craigslist.org/jsy/cto/3153139351.htmlRob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

Rob Posted July 28, 2012 Author Share Posted July 28, 2012 damn I've always loved those r models with sleeper cabs! Is 12k to much?TomThat really is a question that can only be answered from within after a physical visit. If the truck is exceptionally nice, well cared for, and displays nicely, it's probably not out of line. It is however any way it's looked at, 25+ years in age. My own outlook on this particular truck is I wouldn't be surprised if it needs an engine, other major repair(s), or recabbed. I base this assumption on actions I've seen in the past. The opinion is my own, and subject to being erroneous.The truck does appear to show well given the limited exposure the listing reveals.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.
