Truck Number two!!

Score!!!! 88 F250 4X4 Ex. Cab Long Bed 7.3 with CTS turbo and shop welded custom 4" exhaust. Has new rad, new GP's, new batteries, cables, exhaust, muffler, rear brake cylinders, radiator, tires, extra springs etc. Body is okay, frame is rust free and well maintained. The box....LMFAO has been treated with used motor oil under the liner so its "rust protected." The turbo is in good shape and the exhaust is nicely done. I am going to pick up on monday or tuesday. Only issue is it needs a clutch. The clutch in it is fried. Guy on another posting has a ZF5 for 200. Truck is 500. Man did the stars align or am i still dreaming and about to go to work????? LMAO!!! WooHoo
