Getting the Wheeling Fever
Her husband died, she said he just had the top end done and it cost $1200, then the bottom blew. I don't know what that means. Her asking price was $400, I have her down to $250. My Raider is a 3.0 but I think my 5 speed is different than this one, right? So could I get my money out of this for parts? This is a 1988, 2.6 I think, 5 speed, HL washers, skid plates, bouncy seat, LSD, leaf spring rear, 113K.........

Dual Bouncy seats, HL washers. New Mud King 235's on 15x7 Crager soft 8's. Dark tint. Superwinch hubs. Herculined Interior.

That looks like a nice Raider. Buy it, put a 'new' long block in it, sell the truck for profit. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I doubt there is such a thing as "not worth $250" when it comes to Mitsu trucks...

That thing looks like it already had some significant motor work done, judging by the RTV on the valve cover, waterpump, vac advance, etc...

I am loooking for a deal like this locally.. I'd be all over that. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
