Re: Testing Driving Tips, Items to look for when purchasing

The bad ... needs paint $7,000.00,Tail gate $300.00 +, windshield $200.00 +, heater core $100.00 with gaskets + , interior worn out $1,000.00 + , parking brake doesn't work (bricks under tires) stains in driveway means it leaks , it's a long bed Some guys like them some don't depends on your future plans , is the radio hole cut out ? shifter against the seat ? Is the grille dented or cracked ? they are expensive . needs carpets $200+ Needs tires $$ needs hub caps $$ It doesn't look like a daily driver to me ??

The big question is how long has he owned it ? looking at the neighborhood it looks like he may have bought a project truck and then found out what it costs to pay someone else to rebuild ti , Now he's selling to get out from under it and buy a more finished truck . It's cheaper in the long run to buy the best most finished truck you can before diving into a project that may be in pieces for years ...Offer $1,500.00 cash in hand waving it in his face . $1,800.00 truck at most to me And that's if it runs and drives great !
