Hello all! I’m looking a a 28-29 pickup for sale. Let’s just say it is roached!!! It’s mostly complete it’s in need of everything! I always wanted a project even though it will most likely/definitely require more money to get up and running then what it’s future worth will be. I would get it road worthy not looking to make a Barrett
Jackson. Anyhow the asking price is $2,000
The bed looks decent but like I said the truck need’s everything. I know it could be a touchy subject seeing you can’t see the truck but does anyone have any advice on what this thing is actually worth? I was going to offer $500 and prepare
To dodge a few bullets LOL. Any help would be greatly appreciated
 
How about some details since you don’t have photos. Does it have an engine, transmission, rear axle? Is all the sheet metal there? Any interior? Does it have a title? Does it have usable wheels?
 
Ok, it has motor not sure if it’s free, all sheet metal is there. It’s rotted but all there. Complete drivetrain. Has all 4 wheels,tires of course are bad. No interior as far as the pictures go. Title wasn’t mentioned I’m waiting for the owner to respond.
 
if its the one on ebay, I already offered 1000. the guy said he would take my offer and then relisted it.


the running gear is worth 1000. and he stated the motor is free. dont think its worth anywhere near 2k, but depends how bad you want it?


a decent running gear is worth at least 1000-1500.


ps the owner never responds...... got him on the phone once.
 
Yes it is LOL. He hasn’t respond to email. I’m actually 20 minutes from him for a few days.
Honestly I don’t think I’d offer anymore then you did. Good luck to him I never understood why people post things for sale and aren’t proactive on selling. Theirs plenty more out there. Thanks for the info friend!
 
If the difference between $500 and $2,000 is important to you, I would advise anyone to just walk away. I'm going to say that the difference is insignificant considering what it's likely to cost you to just get it in decent running condition.
 
he has a 1 after his name. a newbie on the bay.


he told me 3 times that he owns 5 tow trucks. I guess he is proud of himself. lol


no fraud involved. he probably towed it out for free and thinks he has the motherload.


Thought my offer was good, but I was wrong.......

If the pickup you are looking at is the one I see on Ford barn by your add. You do not want it even if it is free. It is worthless or even worse than worthless. The bed might be worth $400.OO unless it is also rusted out. Do not get involved.

Looks like yard art to me unless you are capable of extensive sheet metal work.

I totally agree. I tend to fashion it as a money pit. Why not buy one you can enjoy now without investing thousands of hours and many thousands of dollars. Wayne
 
Totally agree! More I looked at the pictures the more I thought the same as you guys. It’s barely good for parts sadly. He can keep it. Chances are he will sell it for scrap.
