SALVAGE TITLE – RECOMMEND FOR PARTS OR EXPORT ONLY

MANUAL TRANSMISSION. V10 GAS ENGINE. 4X4.

This truck got side swiped by a Corvette. The toolbox took most of the hit but I had to get a salvage title to collect on the insurance claim. This truck is not a good candidate for rebuild without SIGNIFICANT REPAIRS. The biggest known problems are:

1. Isolated bad body rust / rot underneath the cab.

2. Badly leaking exhaust at the driver manifold.

3. Possibly damaged or bent rear axle from the accident. It rides straight and is visually fine but I couldn’t get a mechanic willing to look at it.

From front to back:

Ramsy winch is included but hasn’t worked in years. I took it apart for a bench test and it failed.

Engine has odd gimmicky 2^nd oil filter installed by first owner. Seems to work though. Uses a display not a dipstick.

Engine has following error codes: P0171, P0174, P0307

Passenger exhaust manifold gasket and bolts were redone maybe 5 years ago and are holding up well. Driver side exhaust manifold gasket is badly blown out and should be replaced. I did a patch to get it through inspection. That patch has since failed.

MANUAL transmission was replaced maybe 8 years ago and works well. Clutch was redone maybe 5,000 miles ago and is in fine shape.

Transfer case and 4x4 works good.

Door key only works on the passenger side. Driver door locks but doesn’t unlock with the key. You have to go around and reach over.

Bench isn’t too ripped up and interior is okay. Glove box is broken.

Toolboxes have keys. The one that got hit currently doesn’t close quite right.

Forestry / Arborist dump bed is in great shape. The Southco body is very desirable and has been great to me. There’s little or no rust inside. Some of the welds that hold the body to the frame broke a long time ago but a ton of the welds are still good. Electric engine powers it up and down slow but good.

The frame was treated with an anti-rust a long time ago that seems to have done a great job. There is little/no frame rot. This truck has never plowed or salted.

Rear tires have one that is mismatched. The bent rim and damaged tire that were on when the truck was hit are included.

The truck was from North Carolina originally. I bought it from a dealer who resprayed it about ten years ago. It has earned good for me. It always starts. It never overheated. That said it has been doing tree work for 23 years. Every inch of it is at least a bit beat up. It doesn’t make business sense for me to spend time on this truck so I’m passing it on.

Yes it runs / drives. The videos were taken after the accident. I’ve done my best to describe everything accurately. I’m hoping to not do showings or test drives but will answer any questions I might have missed. Must be picked up in Bethlehem Pennsylvania.
