Re: Is this truck worth the money?

Hey Route-66,

You need to educate yourself on what these trucks cost to buy and fix. Get yourself some parts catalogs and look through them so you get a general idea of what parts cost. Then when you go and look at a truck make a list of what parts you think it will need to get it in the condition you prefer.

I looked at about 10 trucks over a 2 year period before I purchased another 67-72 truck. I only made on offer on one other truck. I offered a thousand less than what he wanted, I called him 2 days later to negotiate but he had already sold the truck. That gave me an indication of what they were selling for.

A truck that you can't test drive, I consider it a project and that lesson's the value when I'm looking... Good luck, Nate
