Well, I first registered here last winter when I still had my 96, but had to get rid of it to get my grandfathers C89 1500. Now that I have some money I am looking for another. Currently I'm looking at a 98 4x4 4.3L Vortec.

The Good:
BFG A/T's re treads 70%
Power everything works
Black
molded running boards (will be for sale if I get it)
only 185k

The bad:
Passenger mirror missing
Drivers side window doesn't work
Needs new brakes soon
Needs fuel filter

$1000




Opinions?

 

Seems like a bunch of semi easy fixes...but if you get it...Good god, those running boards must go!

 

If I get it they'll probably stay on till it gets warmer out at least. I'm no ***** but I don't enjoy wrenching in 20* weather either!

 

looks like a great deal and yea who dosnt like to wrench in 20 degree weather

 

looks like a decent project....also check around the intake for leaks....never know.
for a 1000 i would go after it.

 

looks like a good candidate for a solid axle and sum 37" tires.

 

Fork over the cash and id be happy to do an SAS! Thinking just crank and shackles and eventually keys and blocks.Someone told me stock F150 keys will give 2-3" of lift?

 

I don't think I've ever seen a lifted truck with that molding on there. Wonder what it would look like... Hmmm....

 

A space ship.
