Truck option - thoughts?

I don't like a 351M, but other than that?

What exactly are you asking? What engine to put in a truck? What engine to look for in a truck you are considering buying?? Some more info would be helpful.

Reason I didn't is that I'm using an iPhone. It immediately closes the application when I hit the link button. Just looking for guidance as to whether 7500 is fair. I know I still have to look at it.

Maybe come back and edit on a real computer when you get a chance? You posted the contact e-mail address rather than a link to the ad, and I doubt that anyone here is going to e-mail the seller to inquire about it for you or that he would want us all to do so!

7500 means spend lots of time looking it over and take a friend .. On the hyperlink I guess smart phones ain't that smart

Bed lined with 16 gauge steel + bed liner... wow that sounds heavy. I wonder why? Frame painted with rubberized paint. Wonder why? Personally, I would be concerned about rust issues despite very neat/pretty appearance. Thorough inspection with a pick or small screwdriver underneath would help tell if the seller is willing... also I would ask to pull the new carpet and have a peek at the floors.

The bed was rusted and the underside had some rust as well. He said he sanded, covered
with chassis saver and then the 3m. Also said this was not a frame off resto, but a fun
good looking truck that could a daily driver.
