    My dads looking to expand his operation, meaning put me in the truck And part of the business so we can eventually get a 3rd one for my younger brother, he's 21 and insurance is still pricy for at 24 @3500yr

    Anyways its a 97 ch 427 inline pump not an etech. 200wb 40 sleeper 12k&40k with headache rack, rtx15710c 3.70 on L.p. 22.5

    I think it was a hair under 17k. They want 18.900 they know its worth more for no eld yet at least. 1.1m and it looks super clean for its age never been painted original paint on the frame with only a tad of surface rust

    mine just slipped under the eld exemption model year 2000 with a 1999 biuld date and 1999 engine.

    for being a sleeper truck and being setup the way it is its a light truck. its got 1.25 million on the clock.

    if i was going to sell mine i would probably list it at 35k but i have a huge pile of receipts for parts and work done to it. but it would probably take just the right buyer that needed a truck setup like mine is to get anywhere near that price.
     
    Tug Toy and Brettj3876 Thank this.

    Same with my dads 93 60 in midroof. EVERYTHING but an inframe has been done to her. Not to mention a $10,000+ custom paint job, well it would of been if he took it to a paint shop instead of doing it himself. This summer he put a Frankenstein old old school dbl od. It's actually a triple .86-.73-.62 on small rubber w/3.91

    Has just under 900k on the engine and uses less than a gallon between changes. My dads 57 and he plans on driving it until he retires. The rich horse racer in Texas where we got her has a 91 ch with 300k actual miles ecm verified that he's not willing to part with yet.
