i have the chance to buy a 1985 f-150 short box stepside. its 2wd and the only rust is in the cab corners. All it needs is a battery to run. Whats it worth? Any thoughts?

 

$500-800 depends how good of shape it's in

 

alright. i was thinking about offering 500 and see what he said anyway. ill let you guys know how it goes.

 

If somebody is too cheap/lazy to put a battery in a vehicle I cant imagine what else they neglected on that vehicle.

 

yeah my neighbor has the truck, he bought a new chevy 4X4 and decided to park the ford. its been there ever since.

 

I always wonder why people do that, why not just trade the old truck in when you get a new one? They would have given him $500 or something just to take it off his hands - why hold on to it and let it rust into oblivion?

 

exactly!! im surprised the only rust it has is the cab corners.
