Default How much to get a head gasket replaced?

My mother contacted me today and she has recently come into a bit of insurance money. She needs a new vehicle and wants a truck. Since I drive an F150, I suggested she try the same thing.

She is computer illiterate and asked me to look for trucks for her on the internet, so I did a bit of searching and found an intriguing offer.

I found this, but it needs a new head gasket. Anyone know how much this would cost? I've heard as low as $80, to some pretty high prices so I'm really not sure what it would really cost.

Judging from the pics, it looks like it hasn't been run in a while but I'm just looking. No commitments. But any ideas?

Having a headgasket replaced averages about six hours labor and six hours of labor at 70 dollars an hour is a lot more than 80 dollars
