Re: Good Buy?

If what you can see suits you, get under the truck. The cab braces and inner rockers and floor will tell the story about the rest of the truck.

If the braces, inner rockers and cab corners are solid the rest of the cab is probably acceptable.

The AC compressor is missing. If AC is important to you, getting the AC working can be an expensive proposition if you have a shop do it.

The price doesn't look out of line, and he says he will negotiate.

What ever you decide, keep in mind, you will probably spend half the purchase price again before you are satisfied. I have never bought one that I didn't immediately start spending money on.

A similar truck sold here in the spring for $8,500. I talked to the new owner, and he said he has spent over $5,000 and hasn't started on the AC yet.

The ability to speak several languages is an asset, but the ability to keep your mouth shut in any language is priceless.
