Golden Eagle J10

I think he's asking too much, but this thing has the potential to be a really cool truck.

Is it really rust free is the floor plans have been replaced with 16 gauge steel? I mean it looks like a fine repair..a roller for 6k? Maybe.

 

I know the seller and this truck. This rig was a farm truck it’s whole life. The floors have been replaced very well and the whole truck is a time capsule that really tells a story. It has dents and the paint is very sun faded. Overall, it shows really well if you’re interested in it as a “survivor” type build.

 

I love this truck! I’m far too cheap to buy it but I can see the value.

 

My F100 was kinda like that. It came from a place with sandy soil that would get caught under the floor mats, and farmers occasionally leave windows open and let in a bunch moisture which also gets trapped

 

I don't understand if it works or not, tires are old, and it is probably rusted below. If all works, a clever guy can repaint and make new and sell it 15.000; this is what I see around. But it's a job!

 

I like it, and the price doesn't seem too out of whack with where the market is at.

 

Old boy down the road had one the same color, it was a sharp looking truck....
