If I want a swb 2WD, there are a lot in socal, and everywhere for that matter, but the K's seem clustered up in the northwest - i.e. where 4WD was needed and used (that is the key to where to look for what you want - figure out where it most likely would have been used). That's the down side, generally speaking, they HAVE been used, a lot. But still, I'd save a lot on shipping if I'd just move there.

Oh, and Sacramento. It's FULL of good stuff. Unbelievable how many nice examples I've found in that one city. Granted, it's a BIG city, but still...

I was born and raised in Sacramento. There are a ton of trucks there for some reason. For a while I would go to pick and pull every other week and I could find all kinds of trucks that other member would love to get there hands on. I moved to Phoenix and thought the truck scene would be even better buts that’s not the case.

What's wrong with it? It looks like a good buy from 8 hours away?

You did the right thing, never try and buy a vehicle if the title isn't in the sellers name, even if it is his brother.

I’ve bought many trucks that were not in the sellers name, always required a bill of sale and picture of their drivers license. I understand why you would be skeptical.

I would of offered to purchase as a non titled truck... Take the title and hope and wish it goes thru with no issues. Always get a bill of sale, picture of their drivers licence and the plates on their vehicle.

70 K10 $11K
Look into the driveline/SPID closely, listed as "4WD out of a K5" (which is fine, assuming it was just another NP205 swapped in to replace a grenaded one or something like that - I'd (personally) pass if someone swapped in a later square NP203. But VIN is a K, so originally a 4x4, I'd just check closely, that's all)
https://eastidaho.craigslist.org/cto...470568778.html

68 K10 kinda rough, but reasonable price $4750
https://minneapolis.craigslist.org/r...486503016.html

71 K1500 $6800 Really like this one, might be a black with parchment combo(!)
https://minneapolis.craigslist.org/c...480187976.html

Saved the best for last...
71 K2500 fire truck with 19K orig miles (and appears to have zero rust). Now how cool is that? $15K

Yes they are! And a lot closer to my price range than the K10!
Thanks for fixing the link. I just wanted to check it out and pretend for a minute that I have money!

The 70 K10 used to be my truck. I sold it to the board member HeloCrewChief (His first name is Oliver and he lives in Tacoma, Washington.). He got it without the front fenders and interior installed and he put it together. He then sold it on Ebay. I can give you a ton of info. on the truck. It really is a VERY solid truck. Motor and tranny are very fresh and numbers matching. I rebuilt them myself. I really wish I could buy it back.

I just got done looking at it. I was all in until I saw it. Highly optioned truck. But, it was a total rust bucket.

That's too bad. It's a 557 paint truck to boot! (I'm partial..) The rust explains the price.

Ha... rust was no extra charge probably.

I liked the truck and colors. Just not worth the rust repair. Every panel needed repair or replacing. Such a waste. Also, he had an old for sale sign in window that said $6k. Maybe he’ll drop it $2k and I’ll buy to steak parts from.

I completely understand, I wouldn't have bought it either, at any price, if every panel was crap.
