OK, my gamble to make it to CM this year did not pay off. Took a chance on a cheap 80 down in CO Springs, the PO claimed to have just had the HG done, and it would not start but his mechanic said it just needed an alternator and thermostat. It was cheap, and I *really* want to make it to CM this year, so I took a chance and had it towed to Redline last week. Got the bad news text yesterday from Justin, water on the pistons, so the HG is either bad *again* or the PO did a bad job or he just never did the HG at all. SO...I got it cheap enough to at least break even if I part it out, but don't have the time or $ to throw another HG at it, so I am going to try and part it out quickly and find another 80 before CM. Yeah....wish me luck.

Overall a solid 80. It is a 93 that had a 95 engine put in. Obviously the locked axles are the biggest selling point. The tires are basically new so would like to sell the tires and rims together. Ping me here or timmbuck2 at gmail or 72o 243 2o92. The truck is still in the Springs...probably can not go drag it home until early next week, but if you are in that area you can always grab the parts while it is still there.

Would consider selling outright for $3k. Worth more than that in parts, or have Justin do the HG and you are ready to go.

All PM's have been responded to...complicated situation, may have sold the truck but think it will still be parted out...*after* CM.

Will be in touch with everyone after CM...please send me a PM or email, too hard to go back through the ads.

Saw this on Craigslist. I DO NOT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THIS VEHICLE. Just a heads up. Obviously posted by the guy he bought it off of.

This guy will try and run you for your money, "he" took it sight unseen ON CRAIGSLIST the whole thing happened under his terms while he was unable to see the truck in person while countless conversations led to him knowing it needed work (as so did all the people that actually went to look and touch it) he bought it best price isn't $3000 WHAT A JOKE

$1000 would be best DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME

BEWARE THIS GUY WILL HARASS AND THREATEN YOU ******
 
LOL...Wow....thanks! I actually already sold it, and the guy who bought it knows full well that is needs a new head gasket. This guy I bought it from who scammed me is really trying my patience...thanks for the heads up.

This guy actually is on MUD...and has been booted off several times in the 80 forum for threatening people. The only thing I "threatened" him with was a small claims suit for lying and knowingly misrepresenting the truck by stating it already had a head gasket done.

I had decided to just leave him alone and not pursue the lawsuit or notifying the authorities, but this has me thinking about changing my mind...

thanks again

Timm
