$6500 What? he's dreamin. A 302 with a three speed on the tree sold for maybe $2500 new, no A/C. I bought a new Econoline van with a 302 auto in 1973 for I guess $2200-2500. He might be able to sell it for $3k now a days but I would think much more than that.

That's one beautiful truck. Has all the original papers still. I wish I could see some pics of inside the bed. It's local as well. Maybe if it's still available next weekend when I visit the family I'll call and see if I can go look at it. Maybe even make a offer.

Please come back to the year 2015 if cars were still $2,500 new I'd have a whole fleet of cummins trucks in my driveway. And this is a classic in very very good condition. You can barely even find a non running project for under 1,500 prices rocketed over the past 2 years thanks to all the fake reality tv garage shows.

Apparent you don't watch eBay much. That truck will bring 5.5 to 6k easily.

He'll get it. There was one posted here some years back that was similar but only had like 6-8000 miles on it. The guy bought it for $8K. The truck sold in hours.

Was this the light blue one? I remember seeing one that matched this description. Then later on there was pics posted showing it at a SEMA? Car show as it was nearly flawless and most original one Ive seen so far.

Looks really good but I would of liked to see the original 72 grille on it instead. Is it just a showroom attraction truck or are they actually selling it? Little info about the truck and no price. But they have a whole thing on family fun nights.

Betting it is out of my price range by a few thousand. Do like the look, but I agree on wanting the factory style grille.

Ditto on the aftermarket grille. I don't see the need to replace an original, all the bumpside grilles look good to me.

I wonder if they think those are the "orignal miles" on that speedometer?
