Jake,
Let me know if you sell how much you got for it. I'd love to sell my green truck and I'm curious what people are giving for them.

Here is a pic from last fall. I can take some more by request if you can email me what you want to see I can send them direct - jhartman25@gmail.com I need to sell the truck for financial reasons. The axles and wheels are probably worth when I am asking for the whole truck.


The only things it needs done - drivers side stub axle needs a new one with a lip for a seal. It leaks onto the rotor and that obviously effects stopping. So likely you would need to tow it. Other than that the interior isn't completely reassembled mostly because the truck was used for off-roading not daily driving.

I've bought and sold a few built trucks. You for sure do better parting them, although it's a pain in the ass. I could move a handful of parts off of it for you if you go that route. Judging by what I paid for a giant truck last week, I'd say your price is pretty solid.

I love seeing these trucks for sale. Priced at less that half what has been put into them, they sit and sit, then I pick them up for a song and part them out for over $10k.

none of your fucking business
If Jake would put down the shakeweights for a couple minutes and take some good, filter free pictures with a detailed list of all the work he has done, I bet it would sell.

I would be honest and tell people it needs a new spindle machined because you can't get replacement parts and it will leak forever like it is.

The truth is, he doesn't really want to sell it. That's why his heart isn't in it.

Bingo, I really don't want to and it will be a very sad day.


If it doesn't go for 6K I will put in the effort and part it out.

Is there a reason you are stealing my photo from smugmug?

Is that really from an account of yours? I didn't steal it, Google gave it to me. Personally, I only photograph stacks of less than 9k to avoid being red flagged. And I only touch fresh new blue hundreds, not those old yucky ones.
