Hi guys,
Here is the story on the truck....
I got in two summers ago from a seller in PA... it was sitting for a couple of years and needed break and exhaust work. It ran pretty well and even though the body has rust, I was willing to take on the challange. Well, I did all the needed mechanical stuff first... tune up (plugs and wires), breaks completely redone and new exhaust, break master cylinder, some other stuff I forget... spent about $1200 and auto shop has records if you need. Was driving well after that, but would run hot if I was driving unded 25mph so I only drove it a couple of times... mechanic said it needs a new thermostat. So, a few months back I drove it to school and forgot to turn the lights off... battery died, no big deal, called campus security to jump it... well, they reversed the wires (yes, I know!) and blew a few things... now, I replaced the fuses, but the horn doesn't work and windshield wipers are always engaged so I had to unplug it under the hood. The alternator went, so I ordered a used one from ebay but haven't installed it. The truck has been sitting for these last few months and I can't afford to tinker with it and need a more reliable car.
I am located in Westfield, NJ. Can is inspected for another 8 months. You can come check it out, just message me about the time. I will entertain all offers since its not currently running. Body has rust in a bunch of places and I have covered it with some black POR15 to prevent further damage. If you want to install the alternator and drive it, its available, or I can tow to you using my AAA within 100 miles. I have extra passanger seat that I bout from the junk yard thinking I would swap cushens. Overall, a work in progress, has 178,000 but I am hoping someone can give it new life. Will need a front windshied as this one has a crack a couple of inches long.
I have the carfax history on it as well... I got it just in case.
Please make offers. Best offer will get this and I would like to sell ASAP so I can stop paying insurance on it...
Trades may be considered, just let me know what you have to offer. I am new, so sorry if I didn't follow the right process. Thanks!
