Somebody's done a LOT of work on that truck.
It would have been interesting to have the owner as a member on this forum, and posting on the conversion. A crate motor/trans from Japan is going to cost...

Looks like he used 10k in RTV alone! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/drunk.gif" alt="" />
It's a nice truck.. but it'll take a lot to get that thing insured to meet the value he's representing.
There is quite a bit of work in it and it is a clean rust free truck. I would love to drive it.

A crate motor/trans from Japan is going to cost... Crate, Pallet, what's the difference. ...I hope he'll take
15,500 for it bc i really want it I've got a first gen with a 4D55 I'll sell you for 15,000 even.

Somebodies done a LOT of work on that truck.

When I had my last Raider appraised, even with bad paint it was valued at around $8000. Not that I could have ever sold it for that! A crate motor usually implies a new motor, tThis one was used. Still not cheap to purchase. Also, some of the workmanship is poor. At that price, I would expect everything to be perfectly detailed. Also, the fuel economy numbers seem a bit high. Rule #1: You never get back what you put in = it not an investment, or if it is, it's a really bad one. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/oink.gif" alt="" /> Kevin

anyone know what those seats are from? Their 95 "LS" seats same as I have in my Gen1.. Yep, same seats in my 95 LS. What planet is this guy living on? That price is simply absurd... but hey, if he gets what he's asking, then more power to him I suppose???

I Like:
-the overall appearance, it's is a nice looking rig
-the interior panels look very good
-the seats
-big wheels
I don't like:
-the stray wiring in the engine compartment
-the silly air filter. Use the V6 filter, and the inner fender air supply.
-the tires look almost bald?
-no explanation of how the grafting was achieved (did I miss that?)
Biggest concern: After all that work you've done, why are you trying to sell it?

It might just be an illusion but It looks like they hit something with it.. the push bar in the front is slightly bent back on the passenger side -- along with the walmart lights pointing upward.
