800 dollars intercooled 1989 d250

is it worth buying for that price? i think i can bring the guy 500 cash and he'll take it. it has a 1st gen front clip and intercooler with the baby h1c. the truck has zero rust and runs great with 255000 miles. issues: steering column is toast, tires are bad, and it is missing everything off the top of the shifter ( no shift lever or the ball and cap for the top of the shifter) the also cut a 2 foot hole in the floor to work on the top of the trans??? i couldnt tell if it had 3.07s but the getrag looked good and there were no major leaks. no pics because it is well hidden and i'd like for it to stay that way until i buy it.

Dude that's a cheap Cummins any way you look at. Look what you would have to pay for just an engine.

Well if your in doubt tell me where it is and I'll buy it myself right now. lol

Of course low ball him an offer but even at $800 a good running 12v and a good rear end is worth more than that. The rest of the truck is just a bonus.

I agree. I would be perfectly happy if I could find one for $800. Don't want to let it get away.
