Need Soem Help!

I stumbled upon a 72 Ford F-250. The owner claims it to have 55,000 original miles. The truck is in overall good shape. It has a 360 with a 4 speed in it. There is no way of me knowing if the milage is original or not. He has $900 marked on it. There is a little rust on the bed. The doors are nice and tight and the truck drives great. I was just wondering if this was a fair price for a truck of this nature. Any help would be great.

Even if it was 155,000, you better snag it up before someone else does.

Wellcome to ( FTE) the first things that i look at is wear and tear does the drivers side seat look like an angry pit bull got a hold of it, or does the brake and gas pedal look like you took a power sander to the edges . It is posibile but my guess would be + 100,000 and for the price its like sienfeld saids (its not like theres any thing wrong with that.) but just check the truck real close!

The whole interior of the truck looked pretty decent for how old it is. The dash looked good and all the gauges work great. It has a sliding rear window and all the glass is good.

F-250 that runs decent is well worth the $900, it is worth much more then that just in parts.

I would say that since it sounds like the overall condition is pretty good, it is definately worth the $900. I paid $500 for mine and the transmission was no good.
