This is a solid DIY project opportunity for someone with the skills, time, and motivation to bring it back to life. The engine has internal damage from an oiling failure and the engine will need replacement, but the rest of the truck is in good mechanical condition for its age and has been well cared for.
If you are looking for a fun project truck, this could be a great fit. With the right engine swap, it could have many more years of use ahead.
Selling as-is and will requires buyer to transport. Serious buyers with a DIY project plan should act. Serious buyers only, best cash only offer takes it!
Thank you for looking.
