There's a guy down the street from me who's got a 1972 3/4 ton for sale. He only wants $1800 for it. Here's what it's got on it:
New Crate 350 motor from GM
New rebuilt Tranny TH400 Turbo Hydra-Matic
Performance Carb
All interior has been redone.
LWB
Alarm system (oops, I set it off and ran
)
Well anyways, I asked him how good of gas mileage it got, because I'm not the richest person around. He said he didn't know, but he'd guess about 13-15 mpg. Is this right? I've never heard of one getting that good, and even if it's a 3/4 ton.
So anyways, anyone think this is a good deal or bad? I'm looking for a good truck, right now I've got an 81 that gets 8mpg, and I want something a little better. Then again, it's only 1800, and it's so beautiful
Oh, the cosmetics are a little bad - grille broken in one spot, bed just a little rusty, few scratches, nothing bad though.
Thanks, any replies will be helpful!
