i was looking at this pick up by my place and the guy had posted it on craigslist and was wondering if his price is to high i know its way to high for me but just want some opinionshttp://sanantonio.craigslist.org/cto/2525555523.html

I'm guessing that the cost of a drivetrain stalled the project for the seller.

That right there is why I always discourage putting a '60-'66 body on a '73-'87 frame. It looks like a stock K10.

I am certainly not into "slamming" trucks but god that thing needs it badly!

**scotts62** · 08-20-2011, 08:45 AM

Would be perfect with the stance if it was 4x4, not a bad buy if you had an engine and trans that needed a home.

Offer $1k, get a swb frame and build it. looks like a decent start, minus the frame. Make sure he hasnt cut or welded something you cant undo though

OneCoWBoY1992 · 08-20-2011, 12:45 PM

well i like the look but it might not be done right, the look is like dinos long travel truck which was 2wd, but i was going to offer 500 cause there is no glass in front or back, no bumpers, would that be low ball offer? i was considering this truck beacause i personally like both stepper and fleet beds but this one i love, and also my truck doesnt have a title which is why i havent put to much work into it..

I never realized it would sit so high, 7-800 is what I would offer ,i would want to look at it first , you just dont learn much by CL pictures.........By the way ask what the coupe is and what he wants for it ..lol

A clean body like that is easily worth $1000...the stance is too tall for my preference but a front straight axle under it might be pretty cool. You can always find another frame for it in a wrecking yard if you want a two wheel drive.

I watched a dented swb (just the bed) sell for 1000, if it is not rusty that thing is worth it in parts
