This might be a good deal.
Have a look. I needs a lot of work, but I think the price is right. What do you think?

Re: This might be a good deal.
I personally do not like when the seller primers everything to give you a false look saying everything is ok....
they even primered the wood on the bed. that did it for me. maybe it is worth it but after seeing the pics I would walk. my measly .02 $

Re: This might be a good deal.
" It has a completely boxed frame with a 1977 Seville front suspension and rear axle which gives you 4 wheel disk brakes. Front clip is identical to a Camaro or Firebird."
The inaccuracy of this description combined with other work that seems to have been done halfway tells me to expect a truck held together with bailing wire and old bubblegum. I wouldn't consider it without a pile of pictures of engine compartment, interior, and undercarriage. |

Re: This might be a good deal.
GMC cab, chevy front clip, rust on bottom of the cab and frame tell you what you will probably find under the primer. In some of the shots the rust is already coming thru the primer. Guy couldn't even take the time to mask the front window gasket right. I'd have someone view it in person with a magnet and unemotional eye. Only reason to prime a truck is to have it ready to block and paint or hide rust. No pics of the engine compartment, has he even had an engine in it to make sure the mounts and location is right????
