No Shill bidding. The high bidder was a nice guy from OH. He drove down, had it hauled on a flatbed an hour away to a reputable shop, paid to have it inspected and then hauled back. He liked what he found out about the truck and wanted to drive it home. We reached an agreement that we were both...
We are getting there. $26,650. More interest than expected. Who knows. Maybe it will get up there where I started! It is still a lot cheaper than the $85k (I find it a little embarrassing, actually) I have spent building it.
Georg, thanks for weighing in. That was my understanding as well...
Colby, I am praying for auction momentum to get closer to my asking price. I find bidding on reserve auctions frustrating so I took the gamble to encourage people to jump in.
Drew, it says Diesel on the Tennessee registration. The Tennesee title doesn't include fuel type.
Still for sale guys! I did a little work this weekend replacing bearings and seals on the rear swing aways. It is ready for the next owner.
Hoping to sell it on mud this week or it goes to the wolves on eBay!
Thanks,
Dan
I am planning to throw it on eBay in the next few weeks. If it doesn't sell, I am going to cancel the AEV Prospector build for my Ram and keep the cruiser. No point in having both, they are just too similar.
Tor,
Good to hear from you! - Pretty sure Cruisermatt was trying to educate everyone that if I ran 40 series steelies then they would stick way out due to the axle modifications. This truck needs 4.5" of offset to keep the tires in the wheel wells.
Thanks,
Dan
The whole wheel drama blows my mind. Once you buy good wheels, they are essentially fashion accessories and not everyone likes the same things - earth shattering stuff, here. Buy it for $30k and change 'em. If my bank account was bottomless, I would run hutchinson rock monsters, but it is not...
Alright guys, here is your chance. Any takers at $30k? Still driving it daily and it has about 262k miles on the odometer (body is the only thing with that many miles).
Thanks.
Dan
I have received a couple messages in the last week. This truck is still available for sale, however, I have really been enjoying driving it for my daily vehicle. Current mileage is coming up on 261,000, though very little mechanically has been with the truck that long. Of major components...
