'86 B2000 I picked up today - Video!

[piscespokerbrat]

Well, I decided I would just upload this video I made of the truck earlier. This is a 94 B2300 (according to the person I bought it from, ha ha). As we well know, this is an 86 (from the title ). I did a walk around, a start, and some revving. The guy wanted $400, but I told him for my waste of time to go $200. I ended up getting her for $225

Hey guess what I found out today??? That Leer canopy that is on this 86.... is really for a 93+ Ranger/Mazda truck!!!!!!!! My jaw about hit the floor when I heard that news! I plan on putting that on my 96 I think. I was keen on a tonneau cover, but a really nice expensive canopy instead? Hmmmmm... Hell the canopy alone is worth at least $350

I think what I am going to do, I am going to keep the canopy for now, and sell the truck as is for $650. This is a definitely a worthwhile truck to fix!! If I didnt like my '96 so much, I would fix this truck myself in a heartbeat!

Thanks, I had a member on here do it for me.

I used to have a Mazda B2600i, not as purdy but it got the job done. 1k miles a week and not an issue. Sold it to get my Ranger back.
