Longhorn Man · 02-25-2005, 06:58 PM

it doesn't even have the silly side mounted spare! If that fender is solid, there is your 2 bills right there!

jfrank133 · 02-25-2005, 07:10 PM

The whole truck is solid steal, and yes i found the truck when I was patroling this area. The guy you see in the pic is my partner we both stopped and spoke with the lady about the truck.

jfrank133 · 02-25-2005, 07:19 PM

By the way, I have found alot of older cars and trucks by the area I patrol, however that is down deep in the HOOD, and in some areas Im not welcome, only because of the uniform, but its a heavan to find old cars. I have seen alot of older mustangs, trucks, and alot of ss cars. maybe i should go into the buisness of just buying them and selling them. lol.

Man, GOOD SCORE!

Heck, between the hood ornament and the storm windows you got $200 there...LOL!

Looks like it could be a nice one in short order. Have fun fixing it up. It shold be sweet!

I'm positive the furd hubcaps is hurting the value :P

Great deal.Nice solid looking truck.Good Buy

Way to go! Nice find.

hobby67stepside · 02-25-2005, 11:27 PM

I only wish my short step had looked that good when I bought it and I gave $800. Real good buy IMO!

**Daubs** · 02-25-2005, 11:35 PM

Yep, that's a steal. I say keep the h-caps...for now at least. Gives it that "I don't know what I got" look. Will keep people away from this great deal.

Pull her in to your garage, take off the h-caps, sand down the surface rust, get that thing running. Stellar purchase!

Sounds like a good side business. You can also use your position as a cop to shed a "little influence" for them to get the cars out of their back yard, or you will call code enforcement and have them removed.
