New truck?

[GeorgiaJeeper93]

So, chances are very likely that I will be buying this truck tomorrow. Just wanted to see if anyone on here has seen this truck before, anyone know any of the history on it? Seller says it's an 88, 4.0, 5 speed. Which is everything i'm looking for, minus 4x4. So I'm pretty excited about it. If I do end up driving it home, I'll post more pictures on friday.

Oh hey it got cupholders!

That's a 97+ console for a 2 wd...not just cupholders...albeit incomplete.  The body work is for what?  Rust?  I'd be crawling around under it and snapping some pics.

 

So, it'd likely have a D44 with 3.07's, a Peugot BA-10.  So if you were intending to convert it, you'll need all the 4 wd running gear aft of the engine + plus axles (unless you want to run 3.07's)  The front flares look like newer ones, does it have the 97 header panel/fenders as well??  Can't see the front.

 

How much??

What leads you to believe it has a D44?

I also would like to know what they are asking. Looks like a good specimen.

I did end up purchasing it. Got it for $1100, plus the price of a new alternator. I crawled under it and there is almost no rust. the body work is because someone along the line cut the fenders for bigger tires. The truck at one point was this zombie themed one. 

 

that story is believable because it still has that "roll hazard" sticker on the rear bumper, and that color is showing where plastidip is peeling off.
