damn...all i can say is i must have gotten a smooken deal on my last one....85 f350 dually reg cab 6.9/t19 4x4...mechanically perfect, cab and bed destroyed when t-boned....$400....if the drivers door wasn't pushed against the steering wheel I could have driven it home

if you had a big enough hammer you still could have driven it home

We looked and an 85 dually out here that was beat to hell. The interior was trashed and the engine looked like a birds nest with all the cut and spliced wires. We though we could get it cheap and it would make a nice project. Nope, the guy was firm on $3900. I told him I just looked at a MUCH nicer Powerstroke for that. Oh well, some people just do not get it.

Nice truck, but if you want an engine with it, that's an extra 2K


You're right, people really don't get it.

Thats about the kind of deal you can expect up in canada usually. Better deals come along but most are like the one you posted.

My grandfather's version of that was "Don't use force, get a bigger hammer" may he rest in peace

Yeah. Ralph died in '02 and that was 6 years before i could know him as my GF's uncle. I just always knew him as Dad's best friend.

Shoot!!! I bought the truck in my avitar for $2000, the motor was blown, but the seller gave me a running 92 motor to replace it with. The truck is a 94, and really in pretty nice shape!!! I sold my 85 6.9 for $1900, and it was a lariat 4+4 with a tempco bed and custom stack. The 6.9 had maybe 40,000 on the rebuild when I sold it. That little truck was clean, and pretty plush!!

i dont get it. i bought my truck for $3000. i tried to get it for 2500 but no go.... still i had to take it cuz i knew i was getting a good deal. mechanically perfect at that time too. now well............

 

[IH_444]

I paid $1000 for mine. Within 2 weeks I had to replace the glows and controller. It did have a very rusty spring hanger when I got it, now has 3 that need replacing.
There are a lot of little issue that have been coming up as well- it needs a good $500 spent to get it back up to *****.

 

[sootman73]

yea i could use a $1000-%1500 to get the truck freshened up again after two years of no repairs. a lot of things wear out in these trucks after two years. mainly front suspension and steering parts....... ugh!

$3500 doesn't seem out of line at all for a 4x4 with a plow if the thing is in real good shape. Around here, folks want a whole lot more than that for some real heaps with no extras.

Little overpriced for a 85. I can gt a 92 with plow for $3000. I picked up my 95 for 3500 and i know were their is a 94 for $4000 that is mint just needs tires...
