I'd say around $3-3500k. The tranny is slipping, the brakes lock up (that could be costly), looks like it needs new tires, a new battery. It does look like he took good care of the body and engine though. I guess it depends on how bad the tranny is. You're going to have to drive it and report back.

I'd offer him $2500 and see if that offends him.

Damn I was thinking a little less than that. I'll still shoot him an email or call him tomorrow and try to see just how attached to it he is.

if he's the one that put in the time on it i doubt he's gonna let it go for $2500

try 2 grand.. those problems are probably expensive to fix and im sure he looked into it already and knew it was going to cost a lot so he decided to sell. it has a lot of good parts on it, but by the time you make it road worthy, youll be putting in another 3 grand depending if you do the work..

brakes could be anything, bent line, needing to be bled, etc. could be a $20 fix or a $1000 fix. its already got the three expensive parts replaced.

i could have that trans rebuilt for under $1000, or go get one outa a wrecked truck for a couple hundred, but thats here, not sure what/who you have available out there.

It'll probably start out as a trail truck for the first few months so I'm just going to fix the brakes and tranny first. I have a guy that rebuilt my accords tranny for around $1500 (including new tc) so I figure the truck's wouldn't be too much more. I don't want to count my chickens b4 they hatch though, havn't heard back from him yet.
