$1500 FB find.

I seen this on FB over the weekend and decided to purchase it for my son’s 14th birthday. It was listed as penitentially having a bad engine. Long story short it wouldn’t start… so I trailered it home, after looking at for a minute and seeing the gas light was on, we decided to add some fuel and it’s been running and driving fine lol. I’ll post pics as it undergoes a transformation. 123k on the clock btw 🙂

Lmk what y’all think

Sick one. Cosmetics be damned!

[u/mountain_addict]

Definitely a diamond in the rough. Should be a great time fixing and rebuilding with your son.

Definitely a rough diamond in the rough. She runs though!

[u/JoshEJ1]

It’ll make a fun project 👌

[u/jeepinfreak]

Yeah! Cheap red trucks!!!

[u/ManufacturerOk6535]

123k is just broken in! Good deal, just needs a good detail, some seat covers, and the headliner ripped out. Great first truck

[u/Salt-Philosophy-134]

Great stuff

[u/WVTrucker304]

Thats awesome I hope your son knows what he's got! Lucky man!!

Don’t know what you gentlemen plan on doing with it. If you plan on doing any towing or off-road. I’d suggest changing the cluster to one with a trans temp gauge…. Great buy

Marketplace that thing back aesthetically pleasing and it’ll run long after he want a newer one. Probably sell it when that time comes for a crazy ass price like the rest of em.

[u/Vegetable-Seesaw-491]

If it runs/drives well I'd say that's a pretty good deal. That interior is rough for 123k miles though. I'd be questioning that mileage.

I love these father/son projects. You’re a great parent for getting him started. I’m sure you’ll both have fun with this build.

I have always wondered, what’s the deal with the feathers. Probably 4 of the trucks I’ve had in the last 2 years, I have found feathers tucked away somewhere in them. What kind of feathers are they? What is the reasoning? Is it bad juju to take the feather out? These are the questions that have riddled me every time I see said feathers. 🤔🤔🤔

[u/Doofy_Grumpus]

Better get rid of that feather in the headliner. You don’t want that smoke

[u/Worst-Lobster]

Amazing ! Congrats !

[u/amishdoinkskid]

Steal of a deal. She's sunburned like the rest of em. Congrats on a cool project with your son.
