What is wrong with people? WTF TRUCK!

[Pintony]

Hello Group,
I have a 1976 Ford Courier.
I have to leave a 2500.00 price on the windshield to keep people from constantly offering me 100 bucks for it. BTW my truck is not for sale...
This morning before 9 am, some guy knocks on my door offering me 300.00 for my truck.
My truck has 4 almost new Michelin tires, and I just payed the insurance monday. 275.00 for 6 Mo. Full coverage.
I was getting ready to go get another load of Hedge from the woods. Needless to say I told the guy to gtfoh...

Honestly, I don't think your $2500 price is far off. Anyone into vintage mini trucks should be all over that truck. Where would they find another one? No where around New England, thats for sure.

 

[treemandan]

I think its a Datsun.

I think its a Datsun.

Hey Treemandan,
It is REALLY a MAZDA with FORD badge.
The only real difference is the Mazda was a 1.6L while the ford was a 1.8L. ooh and different grill.

Hey Ductape,
If my Courier breaks down I'll call you.

If you don't want offers, take the writing off the truck.

I had a 1977 Chevy LUV 4x4 4 speed back in the day, how I "luved" that truck. I wish I still had it.

 

[Hank Chinaski]

I'll give ya $110 for it.
But you have to deliver it.

 

[Ductape]

It would be nice with a Cummins 4bta in it.

:agree2::agree2:

Reminds me of the old Ford Cortina. I drove a couple of Cortina wagons working over the summer for my Uncle's coffee service company in 1976.

If your trucks not for sale why is there a phone # and a price on it?

Because my friend there is nothing in life that isn't "for sale". He has the price and number so people will quit knocking on his door for $100 offers. However, if someone actually showed with $2,500 smackers I bet they'd be driving away in that thing.

I get that kinda crap with the Ranchero, guys rush up just sure I'll be overjoyed to sell it to them for 5 or 6 hundred bucks.

Geezus, I just had a horrible flashback of wrenching on my '73 LUV.

Cold sweats and everything.

I must have PTSD - Post Truck Stress Disorder - from that stupid P.O.S.

maybe iffen ya changed yer advertising a bit ya woodnt get the offers yer gettin. like $2500 firm! phone call only??? or, up the price to $3500. if ya'd take $2500 for it, a buyer would feel better talkin ya down to it then just forkin out the asking price.
