I will have a gen 6 crew some day as well. This one looks nice and looks to be well built....I've never been a fan of brown though.

I think it's in the ball park for CC, but a tad high for me also....if it was automatic and a modern color, I might have paid his asking price of $24k.

Apparently you guys don't see what nice restored crews are selling for these days.

you probably couldn't build that truck for much less than 20, and then there is all the time it takes to build it. (i say less than 20 because i don't think he had the exterior resprayed)

Main thing that hurts that truck is the color.

I have seen lesser trucks go for similar money.

A nice paint job alone could cost 8-10k on clean sheetmetal (which a clean sheetmetal crew in 2wd could fetch over 10k.)

Then there is all the mechanicals, suspension, 3k in wheels/tires...etc.

Add it up yourself and see what is better...to spend 20-25k + 500hr labor yourself, or buy one done for 24k?

I know which one I would choose....LOL

I agree with this.

Maybe an evil wife playing an unfunny joke on her husband. If that's the case, I'd say that it's grounds for divorce.

I once got an 81 Mercury Grand Marquis for free because the guy didn't want his wife/ soon to be ex/ get anything.
