I give up, FOR SALE!

This is too much of a project, no time, little money, I'm selling/sold several Deuces too ...

What's she worth? I can load on your trailer or even haul for you though I'm restricted by farm plates on the lowboy to a 100 mile radius...

Hey ABH,
Don't be so fast in parting it out. I know there might be more issues, other then what you state. Looking at the photo, and for the $, it appears you got a nice truck. With a little TLC, you will have a great truck. Order a few pizzas, get the gang over, and make a day (or weekend) of fixing it up. Then you can post after pictures.

Follow up,
Time and money are major factors. I know someone will restore it. Then post that after photo. Boomer

How much?What all have you found wrong with it so far......How long can I leave it down there before I haul it home?

 

[FreightTrain]

I want it I want it I want it!!!!!!!!!

 

[abh3]

I'll take the first $1,500, no problem loading since I have equipment... benton@abh3.$com (remove $) You'll have a few months to move it but this place is going on the market, agricultural land WILL sell even if your house won't!

Damn FT, you better grab that. At that price its tempting to make a roadtrip.

 

[vtdeucedriver]

For that 1,500 is VERY GOOD!!!!!

 

[poppop]

Freighttrain, if you don't take that deal I will personally try to kick your butt at the next rally. Heck, its even in your own state.

 

[bubba_got_you]

send me some more pix to
bubba.g.y(at)gmail.com
the last thing i paid 1500 for was worse than this.
(working on things like this is my form of relaxation)

[abh3]

The original pictures had disappeared, maybe there is a time limit, I dunno... It also has a valid Florida TITLE as well for those who find such things important. Cell is 850-598-048nine
