    Can’t go wrong with that one. If it were a little closer, I’d be on the phone.

  3. With no title, a lot could go wrong.

    That was my thought, too. Clearly someone put a lot of time and effort into this truck, seems awfully cheap, and why no title? If I had to guess, this was stored at someone's place, and the property owner wants it gone, maybe for lack of storage fees paid, so they're selling it out from the rightful owner.

    Granted, I don't actually know that, it's a guess. But the no title thing is a huge red flag here.

    In Wisconsin titling a car is not a hassle like it is some places.

    I believe another issue with no title is that someone could be holding it and getting payday style loans against it?

    So if I slip another 50 bucks to the seller, I get a title, since it's so easy?

    I think what he is saying is some state don't care as much about having a title. I have bought out of state vehicles with no title several times and registered them in my state with little hassle.

    Who the hell is giving title loans on 60 year old vehicles?

    Exactly. My brother in law has bought a few old out of state vehicles and titled them here. It not a preference, and you have to jump through a few hoops, but many times vehicles with no title get blown off by buyers, so the price drops.

    The ad says Chevy straight 6 and a 700R4.
    Again if it were closer, I’d buy it.

  18. This should scratch someone’s itch. Use it as a tow vehicle for your car or travel trailer. Powered by a Chevrolet six, you might need a commercial liscence to drive it, endless possibilities. 457F7992-4C6A-4963-83D1-90229B3D311F.jpeg

    since i don't do fakebook it's nice that some people put a pic but it would be nicer to put the price too.

  25. I could probably get $450 worth of parts off it for our '50 project, but the gas to go get it kills it for me.
