i got another ford so my 95 i got get rid of

Its a 95 f-150 and it need a bit of work it was running as of 2 days ago but the starter **** the bed. I think though the fact that the silinoid was bypassed caused it. A new silinoid is 20$ and a starter was like a 100$. it has 2 new front fenders a fairly new hood really no defects on the cab, well of course some filler around the cab corner. ive done alot of body work on the bed had to weld some sheet metal in of course some filler around the wheel wells. brand new taillights. Old school tripod mirrors. replaced the tailgate with one in excellent shape no rot and it has the chrome trim on it. Its a 300 6c 4.9 automatic transmission regular cab 8' bed. The odometer reading says a 190000miles on it, the person that i bought it from said it was a farm truck and that the engine was rebuilt at 90000 miles and that the put a posi traction in the rear end, this i have no ideal, the engine runs fairly good isnt super noisy and have not notice any loss of oil of course it could use a good cleaning. every once in a while when driving usual right when its starts warming i feel a slight kick from the rear when it shifts but its not frequent. Gas tanks was the next agenda in this project front tank works but can fill about 3quarters fuel due to either leak in tank or bad seal arount the fuel pump and it needs some straps. back tank i have no ideal about it he told me it didnt work and thats about it so it could be the tank the selector or the pump. she need some work but she runs nice when the starter worked. eventually she needs a new windshield nothing majorly wrong but on pasenger side top corner theres about a 5" crack out of the wiper area it would pass nys inspect but im sure after the winter it will probly worsen. when i got it was in bad shape i got it for 500$ and at the time it was my first ford truck so i had dreams of making it a beast but then you throw in the fact that i just got a f-250 4wd with a 351 cleveland the f150 just gona take up space. since ive had the f-150 i replaced the hood wiper cowl tailgate driver door which still needs some tweeking with the hinges or posibly even a new hinge ne tailights mirrors alternator drive belt plugs airfilter bodywork lots of spray paint primer some of this stuff is used from the junkyard i got close to another $400 tied into it. 3 out of 4 tires are descent 2 back rims match but the 2 front dont but i think the spear does match the 2 rear. I wish i would put the time and money that i did now but ill have the take a loss i like to get the 500$ I originally payed for it or even a best offer at this point to get it out of the yard the salvage yard told me they would give me 300 but i got that in the hood and the tailgate that i got from them. I think 500 sounds fair as is. I use it as a daily driver hence being why i didnt work on the gas tanks because if i made worst ouch. If your interest please reply.

i think you could get $500 but you have to find the right person that wants that kind of truck and a project
