Good deal i would expect alot more work needed than what your thinking to be safe.Is that paint sticks holding the drivers rear window up?Bottles of something and cans in the back seat are red flags to me.Seat covers-headliner front headlights so he can see at night.Oil pressure sensor leaking or has low oil pressure.Either way good start.

Yes!! 100% agree it'll need more work but just mentioning the small stuff I noticed. Right now it's heading to my ASE LSX specialist mechanic in Dallas so he can start working on her. My brother even went the "extra mile" and having him do the oil pump pickup tube O ring seal and new oil pan seal

Oil pressure sensor not 100% ??? the oil pressure gauge is flickering up down on PSI then stays at 80PSI ??? Figured start with new sensor and go from there


Paint sticks: Needs new lift support on that window, But all others work fine
Bottles cans: Those are mine I ALWAYS add some fuel cleaner in gas when I buy a car
Headliner: is fine
Seat covers=ebay
Headlights $75 for full set with bulbs on ebay/Amazon

Imo it's a great deal, especially if it's rust free. Hopefully it8run trouble free for another 100k.

Yup rust free !! I did a Carfax it's been a Oklahoma truck since new :cool: my brother wants the truck "bullet proof" for at least another 100K miles


Replacing most of the "trouble" parts now like the oil pump seal and pan gasket

Why does he think he was getting pulled over in the vic so much? Doing dumb stuff, or maybe just getting harrassed?
