Try to talk guy down on price of truck...

Buy truck

If Cab and front clip are good, Sell them for about $300. They will be gone in a instant for that price.

Before sending cab and front clip away, pull off any unusual or valuble trim and interior parts. Advertize those on Pilot house sites or epay.

I would imagine the dump box would be a 3.5 yard or thereabouts...Sell box and hoist for about $500. Keep the PTo on the trans tho. If you could have a use for it, make a dump trailer out of the rolling chassis..Those come in handy!

If truck has a 2 speed rear end, that might fetch a buck or two. and depending on the wheels, those may fetch a few dollars too!

Rebuild and install 251, bellhouse and trans...Enjoy.

Sell old engine-trans for $400. It will go fast that way.

Good luck!
