Cheap Trucks on Craigslist

Post by dtcohen »

Saw these trucks on Craigslist today. I don't know anything about them, but the price seems cheap enough. The first two look like pretty solid trucks.

Wow...the bed on the 3rd one is like perfect shape, (due to the camper shell protecting it) being worth his asking price alone. :thup:
And all three dashes are unbelievable too! :eek:

I'd like to see these prevailing opinions, it'd be fun to set them straight. The 360 block is identical to the 390, so if you were needing to rebuild it like these appear to need, just use 390 parts. The only worthless FE block is one that can't be fixed, and even then it's worth scrap money because it's heavy.
