Would you buy this? 86 Custom Cab
Hey guys,
I was driving past this guys house near me and saw in his back yard that he had a custom cab pickup sitting in his backyard!
I left a note in the mailbox asking if he'd sell and to give me a call.
The next day he called and asked if I wanted to come over and check it out. Of course I said yes.
Here's what I found out about it;
-It's a 1986
-The bed is DESTROYED, it's like swiss cheese
-It's a turbo
-5 speed
-4x4
-It will start with ether but won't stay running because (of what he thinks is a bad fuel pump).
-The interior is in good shape
-Most of the frame is in good shape aside from the crossmember.
-It was owned previously by Mario Andretti!!!
-It has 211,000 on it
Anyway, I don't have any pics (i know i know) but he is asking $1800 and I don't really need another truck but I feel as if this is too good of a deal to pass up.
Any other opinions??

I've heard of the turning radius' being huge on these. Is the bed the same bed as a single cab?

id love to have one. the price seems fair but maybe alittle high with the work it needs and the miles but if you can get some sort of certified documentation that i was owned by mario andretti, get it!

It would be neat to have some documentation I think I might go for it and get this truck. I just need to find where to get a bed lol.
