Sanity Check: Good or bad deal?

[junk]

Ad sounds fine to me. I agree he could have given more info, but lets be honest on old vehicles you have to see them in person to really judge value. The condition is everything. And he's got a fair price if it's all rough anyway. I quit bending over backwards to sell stuff. If I miss a sale so be it. Too many flakes both buying and selling on craigslist. I won't change my plans to meet up with people cause people flake out. Also I don't negotiate price once your on site if you said you'd take it. If your just coming to look fine we can do the dance, but if you said you'd take it then negotiations are done. I will hold stuff for your drive time.

Looks like a solid deal I'd do it. Hell that trailer with a good axle with be worth 1000-1500 around here all day long.

Picked them up. Plenty of bonus items... Set of BBs, return line kit, two sets of injector hard lines, headache racks, bed caps... Haven't dug through everything yet.

Pretty stoked!

What parts do ya need?

 

[IDIoit]

honestly i dont need much, but when something comes up forsale, ill assess the situation then lol

 

[BDCarrillo]

Well if you need something just holler. It'll be a bit before I get everything sorted out and listed in the for sale section.

Sure! I have a spare in the 92 which is an electric speedo... Not sure if you were looking to replace your cable driven one in the 87, but I doubt the newer cluster would fit right in. The newer bezels are differently shaped. Gauge senders might be different too, at least oil pressure is.

 

[IDIoit]

damn, yea if i go electric speedo, im gonna go aftermarket.

your parts truck is an auto, right?

Yup it's an auto. 2wd version and supposedly works but I have no way of testing/knowing.

I'd be willing to send the VSS with the cluster, but IDK if all the other gauge inputs are common between styles

no sir, i was hoping it was a manual,
im working on a 89 with a 5 speed, and need the trans access floor panel.
with the add deleted, i wasnt sure what year it was....
thanks for the reply tho!

If the tranny hump is the same between years, I'd happily send you the panel off the auto truck for free. A little cutting/trimming for the manual shifter and you'd be in business.

ive got 2 auto panels right now,
i appreciate the offer, but it would take me an hour plus to fab it up, which would mean 2 hours of fab time that the customer has to pay.
while the extra 180 bucks sounds good, thats a little pricy for a trans tunnel.
id rather find one of you folks that has one and put that money into your pocket!
win win for everyone!
