Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread

Looks to be a nice 51 $4000.

https://portland.craigslist.org/clk/...744143000.html

Currently not working because the motor just threw a rod on me, but I have another running 235 in hand and ready to go in, just don't have the time or muscle/equipment to currently do it. For me the truck is worth $7000 if I had the engine in it and running, so as-is I'm asking $4000 given the other upgrades included (listed below). The relatively newer dump body alone is worth that. Bed is fully functional, hydraulics/PTO good.

Brand new tires put on over the summer and it blew up on way home with em, so they have about 10 miles on em!

Other new upgrades this summer include:
Converted from single to dual carb with two brand new Willy's carbs on Offenhauser intake and Fenton headers
New dual exhaust pipes from Exhaust Shop & Tire Center in Longview
Head valve job with new bushings
New gaskets

The replacement engine and transmission in hand is a later 50s model 235 out of a running Apache (upgraded to V8/turbo 400).

Brakes worked great at time of use this summer. Come take a look!
