I can tell you this is that the secret to finding these kind of trucks or any vheical for that matter is just to drive around in neighbors hoods my best luck is in smaller towns and just look for trucks that seem to never move the person usually never uses them and I just go up to the house and shoot them a deal. That's how I got this truck it was a single older lady her husband passed away and it was his truck she never drove it. And it also helps that I am a meter reader for the water company where I live and I see a lot of cool stuff just tucked away.

Well I earned it. Worked minimum wage for a month n a half on my old 90. Put my whole paycheck down on it at 17 then saved for a month n a half n bought it. Had it just where I wanted aside from a small lift, went to pick up a buddy from the buss depot an hour away n some guy cut me off n I put her sideways through some 8x8 fence posts over a log n into some trees. Person who cut me off stopped when we opened the doors he drove off n I never got a plate number.

Didn't realize these trucks were worth that much

Got mine for 2k, and got a donor trucks fenders, doors, and bed for 400 IIRC.

Did some TLC on it, but it still needs more haha. BUt I wouldn't consider less then 5k for it as it sits with what I've done so far
