What a strange ad on craigslist
 
What a strange ad on craigslist. The featured picture shows some nasty ass finger nail.

In reading the description, he talks about the bed needing a “bed liner”. 😂 The picture shows it totally rusted out. No mention of the interior, but it looks like hurricane Katrina went through it on the way to New Orleans.

Needs a bed liner.

Lol

I had a look at the photos... That's what I would describe as a "rot box". It's a part car at best.

I spotted a typo. There are one too many zeros in the price.

My buddy bought an immaculate frame replaced 4 cyl 150k mile 4wd manual taco prior to covid. similar vintage.

He paid 8k which I thought was absolutely insane, but apparently a bargain in todays market.

It's only got 347,000 miles, so plenty of life left!

HobieMarty 01-13-2022 02:34 PM

From what I've read, the Taco had a rust issue with the frames also. That bed is trashed so imagine what the frame may look like.

Bed trashed. Interior trashed. Body trashed.

Someone will pony up some monopoly money for it...

ckelly78z 01-14-2022 02:59 AM

Obviously the bed is trashed, and the interior looks like he has been living in it. 347,000 miles does nothing for my confidence either, but I'm not seeing the massive rust that you guys are describing...definitely not worth $6500 (cut that by 75%)

I cannot get any CL page to open since last night on my MacBook...very strange. No problem on my phone(?)

All other web pages open fine. Weird.

From the ad: Had a chemical tote in the back and created holes.

So what was in the tote? :(

I always chuckle at the adds that start with criticism and demands by the seller.

No low ballers, don’t waste my time with texts, cash or get lost, I know what I have….yada yada. Sounds like the kind of chap I want to do business with, eh?

HobieMarty 01-17-2022 09:22 AM

Apparently it is still available, link still works.
The interior looks nice, has that "lived in" look, seats are already broken in.

I can't tell if the ad is saying he put two tires on the back, it needs two tires on the back, or can haul two tires in the back, and where did he spend $2500 in new parts??? https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...fd25d0ba3f.jpg

I think he hauled $2500 worth of random parts in the bed, and that's how confident he is that the bed is sound.
