Thankyou all for your posts. I am still pursuing the Chevy Pickup that I mentioned for $6,000. I managed to get the price $200 lower. The initial price was set at $6,400. The truck body is virtually rust free. There are just a few bubbles and one hole that I was told and can see. The bed, running boards, and rear cab area seem to be very straight. The frame looks to have only light to medium rust. Overall the repaint was respectfully done. However not sure on whether any patches or filler was used in the process. The engine has 75,000miles on what looks to be an original 216. It runs and is driven on local roads. The fuel tank and lines have been replaced, brake master cylinder was replaced, along with minor engine tune-ups. What it needs are new bed boards( 9ft pickup bed), wiper vacuum motor, door handle mechanisms, new glass in one tilt out corner window ( it is not a 5 window). Missing the spare and hubcaps. Has the passenger side spare tire carrier. Interior is unfinished and gauges are not accurate. This is some of what I could tell and was told from looking at pictures and speaking to him. I have yet to see the truck in person. That is the problem. The truck is in Florida and I am in Brookville, Pennsylvania. I am seriously considering traveling down there with a trailer in two weeks to look at and 90% sure I will buy. I really appreciate all of your informative replies. I really enjoy spending time on this form, however little chance I may get.
Any one need anything shipped to Florida? If this plays out I might make a post it that area of this form.
Thanks again, Cian Evans
