Buy it for what? Do you need it? If you don't it'll just be a money pit. If you do, it'll still be a money pit. Your call though.

That's still fairly cheap to pickup "project truck". If you got the ability to get parts for whatever it's gonna need I say go for it.

^^that.

or you could swap out the rear ends, get it running right and sell it for mods on your truck.

That sounds like a way better deal than mine was lol. If it runs and comes with the right rear for it (should be a Dana 80 series) then I would get it. Hell, you could throw the rear in it and sell it for $5k.

I would just be leery of not being able to test drive it to check the tranny.

Seems like a great deal. I'd at least check it out. You could always part it out if it would cost too much to fix.

Buy it, fix it, sell it before any other problems present themselves, costing you more $$
