The time has come to sell this 80 in an attempt to get into a less rusty 80. Not something I'm happy about but it needs to be done. With that being said, I have $5000 cash to add on top of the value of my truck if you're interested in a partial trade. With that, on to the good stuff...

The Good
-Engine rebuilt shortly before I bought it at 212502. Engine runs strong but needs plug tube seals.
-Front axle rebuilt 12/19 with Cruiser Outfitters kit and birfs as well as new OEM pads and rotors.
-Front wheel bearings replaced with Koyos 9/20
-Exhaust replaced from downpipes back excluding the muffler with good used OEM 2/20.
-Will have new rear OEM pads, rotors, and shims before sale
-Frame is solid with just surface rust to the best of my knowledge.
-285/75/16 Duratracs have 6-7/32 left and are dirty but have no holes or other damage.
-Brown cloth interior is in pretty good shape and I have the the third row. No cracking leather here.

The Bad
-Body has several rust holes, this is the sole reason I am selling. Back of rear wheel wells and drivers floorboard are the worst. Passenger front inner fender also has a hole and is not photographed at this time. Windshield was improperly sealed when replaced and is why the rust is above it. The left rear bump stops have both rotted off.
- Main intake hose has roofing tape covering a crack. This was done by previous owner and I never replaced it.
-When the PO rebuilt the engine one of the harness side O2 sensor connectors was broken and this sensor is not hooked up.
-Front crank seal is leaking and has been for some time. I check the oil weekly and add as needed.
-Speakers are shot thanks to Tool's new album.
-After a drive an electrical smell emanates from the area of the drivers door. I have not been able to find any melting wires or any other apparent damage but worth noting in the interest of honesty. I may have this diagnosed before someone buys it.
-Rear windows kept coming off track. Both windows were put back in track and put up and then the motors were unplugged. Motors do work if they are reconnected.

Overall she is mechanically sound and I hate to get rid of her. But I have to get into a less rusty 80 that I can go ham on rust prevention before it starts. Miles will go up as it is my daily driver and until 4 months ago she did 70 miles a day to get me to work and back for 2 years. Would be a great rig to cut the wheel wells, throw air lockers in and 40s on and wheel the crap out of. Truck has trail pinstriping and some small dents. Also would be a great start for someone wanting to restore and build one of these to whatever their heart desires. I'm also sure someone could make a good profit over what I am asking if they parted the truck. I just don't have the time to do it or the space to keep the truck while its parted and to be honest, I don't think I could bring myself to do it either.

Please ask any and all questions, they are welcome. Inspection is encouraged. I will take pictures or video of anything and everything you'd like to see. Will give my phone number to any who are seriously interested.

I'm asking $4000 and that's ***absolutely NEGOTIABLE***. This has become a lost skill over time and needs to make a comeback. That price is a step off point to find a price we both like. You aren't going to hurt my feelings, lets talk. I cannot stress this enough, I'm motivated and willing to do some negotiation. I'd like to be in a new 80 before the end of November.
