I think I have both my cruisers sold or should have them gone by the end of the month. I am looking to buy a pig for camping, light wheeling, and grocery grabbing.

Ideally it will be a relatively stock looking pig on the outside. Minimal rust please. I know that's a lot to ask but I have no time for major body repairs.

Interior close to stock is great but wouldn't mind some comfortable buckets up front. Generally clean too as my wife will complain about it constantly if it's destroyed inside.

A Chevy 350 is slightly preferred as I'll be towing a 101 trailer, tons of junk, and my family. A strong 2 or 3F would be fine as well.

It'll put a lift on it quickly if it doesn't already have one. SOA is illegal in MA so likely won't buy anything SOA.

Looking at under $8500.

I know I won't get perfection at that price but in this economy it should be a damn nice, no excuses Pig. I don't need a basket case, bondo boxes,or a fresh paint job masking a disaster. Also don't want Fred Flintstone floorboards.

I'll be picky as anyone should spending some hard earned cash on a cruiser.

Please let me know if you know of any nice ones hiding in a pen someplace!

Please email pics, details etc to john (at) charitywines dot com.
 
When you get the pig after you clean it up or paint it..............HOW MUCH.............
 
Ha! Think I'm nearly done with all the flipping. My company has become very busy lately and I travel constantly. Stuff isn't selling quickly either. Gonna find one truck and stick with it for at least a few years. No time anymore.

That said, might still dabble in parts.....

Bump-

Just sold my 70 series so the 55 itch needs a scratchin!

SOA is illegal in MA so please don't send me pics of any as I will get too excited for something I can't have. 4" lift would be fine.

Found 2 that are contenders in WA and AZ but they are F engines with the 3 speed. Shipping is $1K which is sorta killing it.

Looking to buy in the next week or two.
 
My buddy is a State Trooper so I asked him to clarify and he said definitely illegal and that the compliance division of the troopers would likely pull me over and ticket me as much as possible. 4" over stock is all you can do.
