Vehicle description

We have sold 259 cars, 95 boats, 60 Motorcycles, and 35 Motorhomes on eBay. I am brutally honest about anything we sell. We have a strong background in selling and we have never misrepresented ANYTHING! Please read carefully and call to ask questions. I will describe in detail what I see. I may note more issues than other but, I would rather someone be impressed as opposed to disappointed.
I reserve the right to lower the Buy it Now at anytime. We are starting with an Ultra Low Reserve and a Fair Buy it Now! I dont expect this Duece 1/2 to last the Full 7 days and I will do what I can to ensure it does not!
CALL TODD FOR ANY QUESTIONS

This truck was custom built as a major labor of love by the late owner. I think its the coolest thing on the planet but it certainly will need some work before it is completely 100% functional. It runs awesome as the motor is very strong with zero rattles, knocks or taps in the engine. The clutch has issues as it is hard to get it out of gear to shift. You have to horse it. It will go into gear however easily and the torque is there. I do not know what is causing this. This truck had over $25k invested in it some years back.
BODY
Frame SOLID no rot Roof rusted (can replace easily) Windshield rusted (can replace easily) Hood has a few rust holes Fenders have a few rust holes Doors Solid Cab Solid Boom & Hardware Solid Tires are good
ENGINE Starts up without issue. Super strong with no rattles, taps, knocks or major leaks. Has a new radiator.
WINCHES 3 on back - All work, however, the passenger side is slow. PTO on front works but the drive shaft needs to be re-welded.
FUEL Multi fuel meaning this deuce will run on gas, diesel, used motor oil, vegetable oil, transmission fluid and a few other derivatives
This truck is not for the timid. It is a beast and scary to drive slow as there is no power steering. The hydraulics may need serviced. The aluminum control rods for the pumps & controls will need replaced as some other components may need addressed , however, the bones are good on this project.
