Default how is this possible ??

I found a 06 ram 2500 Cummins, The lower block has a hole it the guy wants $12,000 for the truck he says it a $1,350 fix but i think other wise, he put all new injectors sending pump and trans. truck as 160k miles on it , sounds to me the he really pushed the truck cause it very rare to put a hole in the lower block well cause it CUMMINS !!! i think let the guy sit on the truck for a bit but if i can get the truck for short money like under $10,000. So is this really a $1,350 fix or would it need a motor??? if it needs a motor it more like $8,000 fix then a $1,350 so does anyone know how you could put a hole in the lower block ???

definatly not gonna be a $1300 fix but still a decent buy at $10k.....and im sure you dont have to let it sit......hes asking 12k,show up with 10k cash and you are gonna leave with it.Id almost willing to bet he will take closer to 8500 (if he doesnt owe more than that on it).he obviously cant afford to fix it!

i think the truck was semi work truck, i was think of trying low ball him and go from there there no really good pics. of the truck the only one there is the truck is covered in mud from bump to bumper and the hood open that's it, so has letting on it, don't know what the inside looks like, i don't want something with the inside trashed and i don't want the truck all scratched up and look like ****, i do detailing but there only so much i can do with it, the only reason my 03 looks that good is cause i keep up with it and it live on a farm not that you can tell
