Thanks for looking at my ad. This Truck is for sale locally and I reserve the right to cancel the auction if sold locally. No Reserve auction Truck starts up runs(will rev up ok) and shifts ok.Will drive around my property and load on a trailer no problem. When you are shifting into second or third it acts a little weak (like the motor wants to shut off on you). This could be typical behavior for the size engine I don't know cause all i have ever driven are V-8 or bigger. When your cruising there seems to be some sort of lite metal rattling sounds like it's coming from t he muffler(could be nothing). The temperature guage does not seem to be working it stays on cold. I have not run it long enough to over heat it. The serpentine belt is worn on one edge. don't know if there is a pully out of alignment, or bad bearings in a pully or the belt is just that old(it looks old. So it may need a new water pump and or thermostat. the headlights work. but not sure about other lights on the truck. If i can I'll look into the lights a little closer later. I recently bought the truck. The person I bought it from said "it just wasn't running right". I have no other history on it then that. I can tell you that there was no oil in the truck when i bought it. I don't know if it was just sitting for a long time and has a drip leak or a big leak. I have ran the truck for about 2 hours off and on and don't seem to be loosing any oil, it does not seem to be burning it and the radiator has rust water in it but not the brown sludge like you'd think it was mixing with oil. Again the radiator has rusty water in it but no oil. I was going to flush the radiator (and I did a few times) and see if i could just flush it and drive it or free up the thermostat or something to get her acting normal. but she is going to need some wrenches taken to her and I don't have the time or patience to mess with it right now. Kinda sad because it is a pretty neat looking little truck. Truck could be good parts truck or diamond in the rough for daily driver. The odometer reads 86,000 but there is a good chance that it has rolled over once or twice so it could have 186000 or 286000 miles on it. I have no way of knowing. So down below i'll list a list of pro's and cons i'm aware of with the vehicle Pro's. Engine starts right up every time Transmission shifts Everything on the truck appears to operable except some of the lights( could be a fuse or something i'm not sure.tail lights and brake lights and blinkers(i'm not sure I'll check ande verify which lights work and add comment later) Truck seems to ride pretty solid. Truck runs and shifts. brakes work Clutch seems fine shifts fine. Body is in decent condition for the year (normal wear for for the year) Interior is in pretty decent condition for the year.(normal wear for the year, will need a deep clean) CON'S few tears in driver seat Brake lights and blinkers and hazards don't work. This could be just a fuse or something but there is an electric cord hanging beneath the passenger tail light. few dents and dings and paint is faded and clear coat is coming off. back glass cracked on driver side. Seems to shift weak, could be a clutch issue or transmission. the stick it's self seems to shift fine(no grinding) May need thermostat and or water pump needs serpentine belt Please note that I am not a mechanic there could be more wrong with this truck. These are just the things I am certain of. My feedback is extremely important to me I've done the best I can to describe this truck to the best of my ability and taken as many descriptive pictures. I encourage all bidders to check out the vehicle or have a professional look at it prior to bidding. and as I have said before I have no history for this truck. Please feel free to ask questions prior to bidding. Payment: Buyer will have to pay an additonal 75.00 to cover ebay fees. The battery that is in the truck is not included in the auction but can be purchased for an additional 60 dollars. I do have a battery if it needs to be ran or driven on to a trailer. Other wise you might want to bring your own battery. 500.00 deposit due with in 48 hours of auction close (or full payment if less) Full payment due with in one week of auction close. Buyer has two week to collect the truck from my property once payment clears my bank. After that 25.00 a week storage fees will apply. Shipping: Buyer responsible for shipping. I can deliver or meet with the truck up to 500 miles from savannah Ga., for an additional 1.50 per mile paid in advance. This truck is not road worthy at the moment it will ned to be towed where it's going. Thanks for taking the time to view this truck and may the most money win! lol Thanks, Clint On Mar-06-12 at 08:47:44 PST, seller added the following information: !!!!CLEAN TITLE!!! AND CLEAN TITLE #!!!!. I don't know why they are saying there is an issue with the title. I have a clean title off the State of Iowa and I just got off the phone with them and this is a Clean title. I did notice that there is a discrepency in the milage but thats not a suprise. and in the discription it said "other major title issues". Well there is not. LOL. Thanks Clint
