Ok Good luck!

that looks to be as nice as you can find that old, just be sure that you ask about all the dealer fees and closing costs, they can sometimes add another grand to the final price.

U misread it, the tan one in Eugene was the one I was going for, the pictures look great, but only the pictures. The pick up was a sneak bag. The blue one looks nice, but the owner is not available at the moment the whole morning. It is a new listing, 18 hours old, so I try for that.

Ok, lets put clear what I am after. CC or extended, 4x4, 1983-1986, so 7th generation, do not care about the tranny, has to be decent and worth the import to Europe as there are no parts.
Thanks guys for any help.

OK, they were titled similarly in the advertisements and I got them confused. Good luck on this one!

I also wonder if it would affect the handling any.

I called the guy, he is not organized at all, he said he will call back in a few minutes, it is over an hour and no response. Yes the wheels are strange, I will wait if he ever calls back.

Jan, hopefully you are receiving my texts... I sent you a link yesterday for this truck:

ford f250 fwd diesel 1986

That is strange that a dealership would be so disorganized. Definitely call back if they have not called you by now. Seems backwards to badger a used car salesman but in this case I would. You are tight on time to find a good pick up.

Edit: looks line gonefission already linked that truck...
