Shelby Elliott’s and Missouri truck sales has Good people to deal with, but their trucks can't say the same about.. I bought one drove home 150 mile and check engine light came on. Come to find out alittle later after putting some new sensors and engine harness that it also had a crack in head. It was not getting in oil yet just blowing in radiator. I decide to rebuild engine cause had it down that for just made sense. Between engine and new rearend I had to put in the first week. But good news with that all done, it maybe worth what I payed for it now....don't count on that they check out fliud levels. When rearend went out, I had had them check front gear oil and it was down 2.5 quarts. I should of drove it farther and checked it out better... but that is on me. I would never refer a friend to here.

Looks like the bread and butter for that place is older trucks with the huge sleepers.

Why didn't you have it checked by a shop? Not hard to miss a cracked head...
Brettj3876, kylefitzy, ZVar and 2 others Thank this. -
So sorry this happened to you. It can be easy to be distracted by the "shiny". Best of luck getting it back roadworthy.
