hey mm i went today and stopped in and checked out that other 359 i posted the one for 9 grand. well it has been in truckpaper for a while. and i got them talked down to 5 grand for it. just the way it sits. i am guessing it would take around 2 grand to fix her up get it back rolling. the inside was actually half arse decent. the sleeper needed some work to it. new bed of course. umm the motor look pretty good. tires not the best shape. brakes i would say around 90%. what else. apperently it has starter problems. mileage was 767000. no oil leaks. it has been parked in the same spot for a good 4 months. and the air bags are still up. over all it was not a bad looking truck for 5 grand. they are wanting to get off it really bad...they have no use for it anymore. so if ya got another 5 grand that one could be yours also...if i had use for another truck i would buy it and rebuild it myself. but i have no use for it nor do i have the space to do it. i am wanting to build a 50X100 shed on my property but i got to build the bank account back up. wife was kinda mad cause i drained it buying this one. and she won't let me take out anymore loans.....
her is another pic of truck

I'm kind of concerned about the starter issue. Would hate to buy it thinking it runs and turns out it has 3 rods laying in the pan.
-
well needing a starter doesn't neccesarally mean it won't start. I wouldn't buy a truck I couldn't hear run but it may just be that ya might have to whack the solinoid to get her going. I'm not sure, I didn't talk to the guy jug did.
