Well I sold my little angry gnome. Thats what I called it lol. It just had too many miles on it (235xxx) , I was hesitant to invest any real money in it. Sooo sold that and tomorrow I'm going to look at a black 1998 RCSB 318 5 speed (143,000 miles). Thats right I can be a mini version of Daves truck! It does have a 4 inch BL but still sitting on stock 265's. Was listed on craigslist for $2500 but I managed to way down talk him to 1500. Which is kinda scary that he's letting it go for so cheap with such low miles. I guess I can check it all out tomorrow.

Either you're one helluva negotiator or I'd really look that truck over hard. Kinda hard to believe that he would just knock a grand off the price unless there's something up or they need the money that bad

thanks guy.
Well first I told him that I was looking at other trucks and he was like 4th on my list and he dropped it to 2200. so then I told him I didnt quite have near that much (little fibs never hurt right?) and asked if he would take 1900. he said yes. then he let me know that the dash is practically missing amd that it needs tires. so I acted all bummed and not wanting it so he said 1500. so I'm thinking and hoping its legit.

Well the truck was absolute shiznits. The power steering leak was so bad that he topped it off before the test drive and it was getting hard to turn 3 or 4 mins into it. He wasnt even sure we could drive it home. While on the test drive, the check engine light, ABS light, and parking brake light all came on. and the e brake was not on. headliner and dash were prettty much gone, just crap. so the search continues...

It likely just needs that Cab bulkhead connector opened up, cleaned and dielectric'd.

The interior. Bah, make a sweet sheet metal dash! lol!
