Good Deal?

I have the chance to buy a 1996 F350 crew cab long bed dually. I think its 2 wheel drive but im not sure... It has one blown motor but supposedly it also has a new motor that comes with it... their asking 6500 for it.. is this a good price?

Depends on what condition the running gear/body is in. Do you have to install the engine? What condition is the trans in?

In the end, it is your $$$, time and your truck!!

That's too much for a non-runner as far as I am concerned. What if the transmission is bad too?
Although if that "new" motor is still in the box then it would be well worth it.

I second that...its way to much for a non-runner. Do you have a vehicle to tow it home? Gota consider the overall condition of the vehicle...just throwing in a new engine dosnt up the value that much. Like Kwikk said...if the engine is brand new and still in its crate...it well worth it! Make sure you get some paper work on that "new" engine.
