Fifty4--the truck you're talking about I think is in Piggot, Arkansas and was on Craigslist and it looked like it had the 17.5 tubeless wheels on it.

 

Was is the operative word. It's not up anymore. I'll look to see if it comes back up but now I have good information to take into the deal.

 

I habitually save phone numbers from Craigslist ads. Never know they may still have them much later on. The phone number for the Piggot, AR ad is 870-598-7090. He was asking $1800, it had a 6 cylinder and suppposidly ran with some coaching (carburetor likely gummed up from sitting??) That area is completely on the opposite side of the state from where I'm at, near the Mississippi River near the Missouri line so I didn't feel like venturing that far at the time.

 

My problem as well. I'm on the right side of the Mississippi and he was on the left. But google maps had me going through Missouri to get there the fastest.

 

I find this comment amusing because this old girl:



literally has pulled a house. granted it was just a 40 foot mobile home, but still... its a "lucky" one that has the 17.5 wheels. man I need to get her back on the road.
