recently i was involved in a rollover with my emaculant 91 w250 4x4.
before the truck was destroyed it had stayed in the garage evey night and was in pristine condition, no scrached, fading, dents ect.... now the truck is totaled and im lucky to be walking after the crash. ill get some pics in the future.... but i was wandering what a slightly modified perfect 1st gen truck is worth on the street.
thanks and more to come...... seth

seth-
not much. at least in kali that is. I've seen one occasionally pop up on CL here for $2500-$3000. how bad is the frame? If its not too bad, I know where there is some bodies you can drop on.

Good to hear no one got hurt too bad. Also, that is not so bad You can fix/get fixed, or You can just send it freight to My home and I take the parts that are still usable :angel: .

Sorry to see that. I'd get a cheap doner with a blown engine or bad tranny and start swapping sheetmetal.

Could look at it as an opportunity to build the truck exactly the way you want it now.

thanks for everyones suport. you will be glad to know that i cleaned out all the broken glass and took it around the block last weekend. i got it up to 40 mph and found no pulls, vibrations, or odd noises. so i think shes in good shape.

for starters im just going to chop the top and loose the shell. ive alredy got my hands on some bucket seets to replace the bench, witch will also come with 4 point harnesses. and i plan on starting on a roll cage. here are some better pics
oh and no it is non intercooled. soon to change......

Wow, that hurts. 1st gens are not cheap by anymeans! I have been trying to find bout like what u got, n to find one in decent shape body wise is a chore. Before, Id guestimate it could sell for 10K

Glad to see your alright, N from judging what i saw in the pic, staple a new cab on er, n keep rolling.
