found a 73-75 K-5

[milspecjimmy]

found it at a junk yard the other day, its rough but it is straight. has body frame and axles, but thats it. needs motor tranny t case, and floors. it has less rot than i have seen on newer ones, but its still pretty rusty. i offered the guy 50 for the tires and wheels, but upon thinking about it i am going to offer him 75 for the whole truck. after i take the wheels there really isnt much more worth of parts on it. i am going on the asumption that the running gear is non working because i cant drive it or put it in 4 wheel drive. so what do you guys think i should go on price? if he wont take the 75?

$75.00?? what would you do with it? you have running gear laying around the house?

for that price, i would pick it up for the 73 VIN alone /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

i am thinking an ultimate K-5 project. full soft top, ZZ502(if i have the dough) d 60 or rockwell axels, full cage. just a nasty beast of a truck.
