The Truck is a 2004 Regular Cab. 40000 miles on the Truck. 19000 miles over the last 6 years. The Truck was Stock when I bought it in early 2007. Since then I have invested $20000 + in the Truck. When I bought it the List at that time was $37500. At 28000 miles I had a Clutch, Pressure Plate, Throw-out bearing, ***** Cylinder, and New fly wheel installed. At 38500 Miles I went through the entire motor and had a Complete Rebuild / Ring job done. There are now 1500 miles on the motor since the rebuild. I have all paperwork for Rebuild if needed. The Truck is in excellent shape and below is a list of mods that I have done to the Truck over the past 6 years. I went Dark with all the lights on the Truck to a tune of 1200 bucks. Special Venom Hood that there were only 10 made of, hood and Paint 1400 bucks. The intake is Super unique, never seen another one like it. Black Powdercoat, then an Artist Air-brush rendering of a sweet Viper ripping out of the manifold, at a cost of 1000 bucks. The carfax on this vehicle is pages long with all the work that I have done to the truck. All work done by certified Viper techs. Kelly’s Blue Book for stock truck is $23,874.00. I have seen Stockers go for 28k, I will be asking $35,000 for this Truck.

What's with everyone selling their 10's here lately. I know of at least of 2 other trucks that have Tony Sawyer's work done that have been put up for sale this week as well. I wish I could get Tony to work some magic on my truck.

:-( now I'm really sad! I had to put a loan against my truck to pay for my surgery last month as well as dental work. So I'm stuck for two years. Kill me now!

I've always liked your truck and what you've done to it, Jim. Even at your asking price it's a great buy.

Good luck with the sale!!!

Can't be it....most of these trucks are barely even driven. I don't know about Jim's driving habits with his 10, but most of them I know are driven less than 4,000 miles a year and usually won't drive them if rain is within 100 miles of where they need to go. lol.

I drive mine about 3000 miles a year avg.

Thanks all you guys ......... appreciate the well wishes.

May be going for a traditional classic Hot Rod, at 63 years I got to cover all the bases.

Tell you what ......... This is the most exciting vehicle I have ever driven, and it will teach you respect of the power ...... Can't tell you how many times my heart was up in my throat ----- I love it !!! ......... But moving on to something else, may be back in a 10 ? Who knows .....

Thanks again all you folks ........ Now I need to sell this Sweet Ride .....!
