my buddy told me about a truck thats possibly forsale and possible very cheap...... what it was was a project that someone started to use a a company truck and got too busy to finish it so he bought a brand new dodge..... now this is what i know about this truck....
88 ford reg cab long box, was single wheel but not has a 1 ton dually rear end and duals with the dually fenderflairs.... its a 2wd truck with a i think a 7.3 with an auto and it aparently has only 150 000 km's....NOT MILES..... so say about 75 000 miles...... the truck still needs a little work as in just finish the body i think.... just a little fill around where they mounted the dually flairs to make it look right then a paint job.... it also comes with a 87 crew cab truck that was the dually, its also a 2wd auto..... with a good 7.3..... but the body one this one is just crumbling off the frame....
so tell me about that year motor, the tranny, ect... is it worth using as a tow rig??? my trail truck is a 94 suzuki sidekick, dual cases, toyota axles, 33" swamper tsl's, ect... not a very heavy rig....
thanks for any and all help.....
