shawnss Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 really depends on a lot of things. what type f shape is the body in? is it rusting anything where? how many mile's. what type of tranny work? a full tranny rebuild? is the paint is fair shape? these truck really to hold there value. so if the truck is in fare shape and it doesn't need to much work i'd say it's worth the 5K.

Mr.Scary Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 what year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MARTYW Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 They didnt come with carbs, so probably not the original engine. They were throttle bodied I am almost certain. It really depends on the overall condition of the truck. Tranny work can get expensive too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super88 Posted January 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 It is a 1990..im working on getting the photo... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1slow6.0 Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 No, I've owned three. Nine times outta ten when some one tells you it needs card work sone one replaced the engine or converted it to a carb setup they do a hack job and cut the factory harness which ruins the truck IMO I wouldn't give 5000 unless the interior is perfect and a great body. I sold my last one for 3500 and it was a clean little ole truck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
