Awesome deal!!!
I have a 7.3 F350 with 243K miles on it. No problems ever, not even in 20below weather. Not sure what fits easily, but I would like to know.

yea its a beast, extended cab ac still works lol clean interior but the guy didnt know... i kinda feel bad but oh well.
i mean the bumper is bent to heck condenser and radiator are touching the water pump but the frame seems straight and the hoods a lil bent lol.

ima do some measuring and see if the leafs will work with my truck, they got some big blocks on the rear also.

ill sell the motor and tranny for 2k cash come rip her out if you want, you can hear her run :)
sooo many ideas to do to this thing! ill put pics up of what she looks like next time i go out west where i got her on my friends ranch

well my thought was just pulling the cab and making a platform buggy because i dont know how bad the frame is just yet underneath.
the guy claims he got in a front end wreck at 30 mph about, no airbags were deployed or anything but the front end deffently needs some attention.

but even if that was 3 grand it would be a 3700$ 99 f350 so i see where you coming at lol
