Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds

Went to buy my Craigslist find,phoned the person who had the truck for sale,said there was a clear title in hand, I grabbed some cash, put $80.00 diesel in my truck,drove 2 hours,to get this truck,got there,title was in his brothers name,not signed,he said his brother said it was O.K. To sell,he could sign it,I said I am not interested,cause I don't know if brother is alive or dead,and I could be stealing this truck,so what would you guys do?I have bought a lot of trucks of Craigslist but never ran into this.

Besides being really aggravated, I would take a pass.

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.

Jocks, could you fix the link for the 70 k10? It is showing up as hubcaps in Waco.

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.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds

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.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds

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

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.
