Got an extra $22,000?

This ad wants $22,000 for this 53GMC 1/2 ton...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/GMC-3...fCarsQ5fTrucks



it looks like its running a chevy s10 4.3L like many of the trucks on here....just thought it was an interesting high price for a swap and not a full restoration job on all original stuff.....Not to say it isn't extremely NICE..just overpriced some...

Showin it to everyone because I have seen tons on this site that could be worth what this guy is asking!!!

its advertised as a "one of a kind"! but he should see all the kinds we have going on this site!!! the guys on this site do an AMAZING JOB!

looks better than mine anyway!!!

Re: Got an extra $22,000?

I normally don't comment on ebay stuff but that is definately not a 22K seat cover. And the engine compartment just looks scary. I know newer rigs have a lot more under the hood but can't it be better organized or engine covers made?

On a positive note. Looks like he has a nice house & 3+ garage to work in. I love the trees in the background...lol OHHH man, I just noticed the huge blue connectors by the battery. Nice touch

Nice. Those are the biggest blue connectors i have ever seen in a engine compartment. that is high dollar.. Maybe the $22,000 was a typo.

Over priced for sure. To me it's not worth a penny over 10k and thats probably to much.
