My neighbor has a 1988 f-150 4x4 for sale it has a 302 and a 5 spd manual. It doesn't run yet , not sure why but for 200 bucks I am willing to find out.

 

Do you have a use for a low GVW F250? If not, pass.

 

For 200 ots hard to pass on. Even if its just for practice/knowledge. If you got it running easily you shouldn't have a problem selling it for more.

Probably cost that much to get titled/registered in most states.

 

make sure you understand, it will try your sanity and patients, over and over

 

Some of the most expensive vehicles there are, are the ones that are either free or dirt cheap.

 

It's worth more than $200 as scrap metal. However, it could be just that: scrap.
I'd spend a day trying to get it running but I wouldn't put much money into it.

 

so far the only thing wrong with it is a bad starter. someone wired in a push button and i think the starter stuck on, the bushing on the commutator was gone and it had been over heated that and the key doesn't come back to lock yet. all minor stuff and i have several people who want to buy it once i get it running.

 

Good on you . I can't seem to get rid of anything.
