I'll second the idea/suggestion of hauling it yourself.

I bought one truck without seeing it in person and was very disappointed, although in the end I had some fun, learned a lot, and got my money back..

Now I don't buy anything of value I'm not willing and capable of driving to go look at and haul. Goes for trucks and machinery and anything that I'd be upset about if I lost my money or if it would turn out to be worse than I expected.
As a result I've driven to SD for my truck, NV and TX and CA for engines, IL for a transmission and again for body parts.

I've seen pictures of your truck in other post, and while it may have been and might eventually be a nice truck, I wouldn't be to excited about bringing that one home. An hour or two perhaps if the price was great, but near 1,000 miles one way (on I-95 at that)... To me it doesn't look like the truck is worth what it will cost to haul it.
