Comments Wanted!

I would like your opinion on this truck. It's a 1995 f-150. I want to buy it but I am not sure if it's worth it. Take a look and let your comments fly. Thanks.

Am I reading that correctly? Is that a 2wd with a lift and tires on it?

The tires are too big for the truck. It needs more lift. That's also the reason the front bumper is gone - it wouldn't clear the tires.

It looks to me like someone who had absolutely no idea what they were doing hacked the truck up. Who knows what else they did to it.

Unless you can drive to where the truck is to have a good look, I would leave this one alone.

It might get over a gravel road if your lucky, just watch out for rain or pot holes over 1/2" deep. Seriously i bought my 87(yes i know its 8 years older) for 1600 bucks, just imagine whawt you could do to an older truck for 8400 bucks.
