I've never thought about selling pigpen, and I have a whole barn full of cool cars I could throw the money at.

Don't you drive a mini-van???

[J Cooper]

not to be rude chris, i think the buggy is kick ass and id take it if i had money, but i think $8k is alot for that thing... id be asking for more like $3k. its just a toyota with sc. 40 around it. everything else is stuff any other modified toyota is gonna have.

My front axle alone is worth more than your entire "truck."

point??

My front axle alone is worth more than your entire "truck."

and your front axle alone is worth more than your truck, since that means someone already pulled it and hauled off the scrap

$6500?

damn, you should see the offers for trades I'm getting for this thing. A built CJ, and Toy on 42's with one tons, a tacoma, and the best one came today, a 85 4runner and 2 FJ40 landcruisers

Well, are you looking for trades? Or just the cash to pay off your bills?

I say take a trade and build something now, while you're still on college.

Post up the trades. Maybe someone will be the third party. They may not pay for your POS, but they'll pay for someone elses. They give you the cash, you give your POS to jack, jack gives his POS to the first guy. Everyone leaves happy.

I really want cash if I can. The plan is to use it to pay off the bills, then use the remainder to buy an older truck to use as a daily driver. Most likely something like a toyota pickup or a landcruiser. I may mod it a little, like a rear locker, and some mud tires, but try to keep it for the most part stock. But if someone comes across with something nice, well then yeah, I'll do a trade. I still have the taco to sell and make a few bucks off of, and once I'm no longer making payments on it, I can devote more of my paycheck towards other bills.

As for what I've been offered so far, most of its been in Cali, so I don't think its worth it. I'll post some pics of todays offer of the 4runner and 2 landcruisers once I have them. The 4runner is a stock 85, and one cruiser is basically a parts rig. I've always like the old 4runners, and really like cruisers, but I don't think either one would make much of a daily driver.

Replacing your 2x4 DD with an older 4x4 with the intention of modding it is the worst idea ever. We all know the slippery slope that puts you on. You really wanna pay off your bills, sell your winch and the thuper longfields and maybe a few of the other blingy items you've added, throw in stock or cryoed inners and some bellfields...or one of your old ringed Longs and a Bell (I should have some for sale in a week or so ), and leave it alone. You want to sell the whole thing off, part it out. You have a garage to do it in. The thing works well but nobody wants to buy a leaf-sprung buggy with a small motor unless it's f-toy legal. The whole in this case is not worth more than the sum of the parts.
Taking a trade that you already have a buyer for might be a good idea, but it's hard as hell to make those kinda deals work out. Nobody in our club has money anyway
