Sometimes, I just type "project" into to the Craigslist search bar...

Very disappointed. All I got were rust buckets and grenaded DSM's.

One afternoon a few years back, someone said, "Let's play the $201X game. Enter that number as the maximum price into your local Craigslist and post the best thing that you find".

Two hours later, I owned a Jeep Wrangler with a bad engine. I swapped the engine, cleaned it up and added a new top. In thirty days, I doubled my money and it paid to have my driveway paved.

Take a look at the custom tail light TREEtment on this one...

This forum and access to rust free cars here will be the end of me.

Paint it brown, put a diesel with a manual in it, and you could be the King of Jalopnik.

i'm originally from the next town to the east of there... i probably know who owns that truck...

but just to add to your confusion and problems, we have a 47 Loadmaster sitting in the back yard with a dump box on it that was used to haul grain to the elevator 4 miles away for it's entire life until it was retired about a decade ago. i had it running and drive it around the yard 5 years ago.. i think the asking price for it is $500..

My favorite search term is "conversion." Sure, you get mostly vans, but you get some seriously fun gems.

I always put 7 in the minimum price as well, it helps to weed out some of the filler.

Love that Vette. Glad it's far away, a bit more than I can afford or have room for.

I fear to play this game... but I'll try it tonight.

Just in case some of you don't know, the double vertical bars (shift + backslash; which is usually above the enter button) will search doing an 'and or' function. The double bars end up looking like this: |
