    You guys quoting 2K are way out of the loop or just plain unrealistic. I'd grab that all day at $2k, sit on it until tax return time and double my money. I personally think $4500 is just a bit on the high side of just right, anything under 4K seems like a reasonable price, I'd say it's within negotiation-range of a good price, depending on some details.

    The ***le thing would **** to bring it back to WI though.

    Wow. I didn't think he was looking for a life coach here. Rude at a minimum.

    Dodge trucks can be kinda ***y lookin but the number does seem a bit high. If what's been done is first rate work or very nearly so consider that, but still. Then again since the seller replied too then it may be some well done work and worth the dough if ya want it. Big slice of rasin pie for the seller's transparency:cool: I don't know about anyone else here F&J, but that's 1st cl*** in my book. Good luck to both of ya.

    Hope you're not thinking of paying 4500, since he came down to 3800 on Oct 14th. See his ad in the cl***ifieds.

    Seems like you all could work something out if you really want it and he needs the storage space it's taking up.

    I think if the quality of work is very good then the price would be a little high but probably worth it. If its a hack job and everything needs to be redone from the frame up then I would p***.

    I couldn't agree more! But what you don't know is that I used to weigh a whopping 460lbs just 10 months ago!:eek: I have lost 140lbs to date & don't plan on stopping till I get to 200lbs (I now weigh 320). Although; I do thank you for your concern.:D Also went & had an EEG, EKG, & a stress test (I should've studied:rolleyes:) and all came out great. No permanent damage to the ticker. Thank God for that. As for the gym; I have one & it's got about 2" of dust on it. It's parked in the ba*****t right next to the re***bent bike, tony little glider & the treadmill.:p I don't use any of them because I am still just a bit too big (max weight on most of them is 300lbs). Sorry to get Off Topic but I figured it was relevant.

    You tell 'em. As far as the price, it seems to be about a $3000 project and that is a fair price, doesn't mean it is a steal and he probably could get more. I have over paid for something that I had to have and had been on the search for. If you like it..... get it. Joe

    Thanks Joe,
    I was actually looking at this truck for a buddy of mine. Then I started thinking on it for myself. Really do want to get it but just as I get up enough $$ something happens that drains the bank acct. I kinda have mixed emotions & hope he sells it. But if the good lord blesses me with the money I'd sure like to make him an offer. Maybe if he still has it in the spring all the stars will be in alignment.:D

    2500-3000, that is what I think it's worth. Stuff hasn't been moving very fast and there are a ton of half-finished projects for sale out there.

    Seems like alot of $$ for what your getting, also alot would depend on the quality of the work thats been done. Alot of times when you see projects in this state everything will be "roughed in" but all of the detail work (hard stuff) will be left up to the new owner, I cant really tell from these pics but I would inspect it closely.Dont get all over excited and discount all the work that might have to be done to get er rolling again.

    That sure looks good for a Connecticut project. If the workmanship is good I don't think the price is out of line. If you like the look of a fenderless truck that wouldn't take forever to get on the road.
     
  14. Good for you! Thats one hell of a lifestyle change!
