ATTN GET PAID - FINDERS FEE - Looking for Dodge Truck

I'm on the hunt for a truck. I'm willing to pay a $100 finders fee if you locate a truck and I end up buying it. No BS here. I've scoured the internet for trucks, and it's tough to find exactly what I want. Maybe I'm being picky, but I don't care. So I'm offering $100 sent to you via cash, paypal, or a money order if I end up buying a truck that you referred me to.

What I'm looking for:

~1996-1998 Dodge Ram 3500 Club/Quad Cab, Long Bed Dually

~Cummins 12-Valve, 5-spd Manual Transmission, 3.55 Limited Slip, Two Wheel Drive

~Must be under 180k miles and well taken care of.

~Dash Cracks, Minor Seat wear, and hood/roof paint fading is acceptable, but I
don't want some worn out turd of a truck.

~Must be a stock truck, or with very little modifications.

~Must have clean clear title, clean Carfax Report (no prior accidents, etc).

~Must be road ready, with good tires, and needing nothing to drive.

~Location: anywhere in the US. I'm willing to fly in & drive home. I'm in Texas, the
closer the better.

~Price: Under $12k USD. I'm not full of money, this is an investment, so I have to find the best truck for the money.

~I'll need several high quality photos and a detailed description of the vehicle. I don't
want to waste my time on the phone with someone unless I'm commiting to
purchasing the truck, I need the information in writing.

~EXCEPTIONS: I might consider a 4WD, and I might consider a Regular Cab.

If the truck doesn't fit that criteria, don't bother forwarding me the information, I'm just not interested. I had a truck that fits this desciption for 3 years and sold it, and now I want another just like it.

So if you're one of those guys who's always looking for trucks in your area on the internet or know of a truck like this in your area, let me know about it, and if I end up buying it, I will pay you $100 US Currency. No BS.

You can e-mail me at:
astrofabrication@yahoo.com

Thanks,
Jeremy

I'm on craigslist everyday, searching all of Texas, OK, NM, AR, MO, and AZ. Can't find what I want. Just letting others know that if they keep their eyes peeled they might get paid for it.

You mentioned you'd be willing to fly to any of the lower 48. Search CL for any of the states further North? (MT, ND, SD, WY, NE, CO)

$997 over your limit, but the miles are low and the truck doesn't look too bad....might be worth a look:

1997 Dodge Ram 3500 5 speed manual 4x4 SLT Cummins Diesel extended cab


Just found this one, been on CL less than 2 hours

'nother one.....says needs paint but who knows...might need a good cut n buff:

1996 Dodge Ram 3500 4x4 Diesel



most of the trucks in the PNW are 4x4...sorry...

It takes a really long time to search just the major cities, but I try. Even the smaller cities have some trucks worth looking at, but I can't spend hours and hours searching for the same thing over and over again. I've even tried the "Search All Craigslist" sites but they turn up too many trucks that don't apply. I've also looked on truck trader, ebay, and other classified sites. Like I said, I'm offering some money to someone if they find a truck and I end up buying it, since it really helps me out. They might find a truck locally on the side of the road, or on a craigslist listing that I never saw. This just extends my search area, and I think it's worth $100.

I saw this truck earlier today and thought about it, but the fact that it needs paint and is a 4x4 makes me want to keep looking. I'm putting it on my list though, just incase nothing else comes up. I've got about $13k to spend, but was factoring airfare, hotel, and fuel costs if I have to fly out and drive back, so a $12k cap on the truck price. The last truck I bought I flew to Phoenix and drove back, and it cost me $1000 for the whole trip.


PS: I'm making a list of all trucks that I will consider looking further into, this list has all of the trucks information, contact information, and will have the finder's contact information or username.


I really appreciate this guys.
