Description:

Here is a nice running, decent looking mini truck. The paint is the original factory paint. Truck has never been in an accident. The frame is in excellent condition for those people that want to install a Chevy V-8. I bought this truck about 3-4 years ago to complete some home projects, Basically a run around truck. Home Depot, landscape yard, junk yard, etc you get the picture. I put around 7K-8K miles on it. The insurance on this truck costs me $350 per year for basic coverage. So buying it at the time was an easy decision. The way you see it is the way I bought. When I bought it it needed tires, tune up, brakes, had an ABS light on, and carpet missing on the drivers side floor. Never fixed the ABS as I did not care about the light or the system functioning.I put a rubber floor mat over the missing carpet. I did install new tires and brakes on all four wheels and gave it a complete tune up.
Truck has the 2.2 liter 4 cylinder with the NV1500 5 speed manual transmission. It gets 25 MPG around town. It has the SLS package which gives you a nicer cloth interior, alloy wheels and air conditioning. Also included is the after market tool box, bed liner, rain guards and bug deflector.The truck drives smooth and straight down the road. It is a great running truck and has never let me down.
Here are the know problems, nothing major and does not affect how the truck runs.a) The passenger side rocker has some rust(shown in photo). Basically a rust free truck except for the rocker.b) The truck sat all winter. It started right up and when I drove it the check engine light was on. Brought it to my mechanic and it has two codes P0502 and an ABS code. It will need a speed sensor(code 502) and a left front ABS sensor. The ABS has been that way for years. Anyway he quoted me $200 to fix the two issues. Just bringing these issues to the attention of a future buyer. I no longer have use for the truck. To keep the price down I will leave it to the new buyer to repair the issues or leave it alone. The speed sensor must be fixed if you have emissions testing. If your area does not have emissions testing, then you can leave it and save the money.c) Has its share of scratches and minor dings. Nothing major or unusual but it should be mentioned
I fiqure a running, driving mini truck with A/C is worth at least $1500. I don't think you will find one for less. I will take off the $200 for repairs and offer it as a BIN for $1300. Hell the NV1500 trans is worth almost half of the BIN price.
A $200 Pay Pal deposit is reqired to purchase the truck. The balance of $1100 is due in cash, wire transfer, or certified check.Delivery is avalible for $1 per mile up to a distance of 250 miles. Obviously full payment is due before delivery.Any questions send me a phone number or use the Ebay systemClean title in hand.Answers to questions I have been receiving or will receive:a) Why a small deposit: Very simple answer. There are too many non paying bidders especially on cheap vehicles. A $200 non refundable deposit is to make sure you are a serious buyer. Like stated I don't believe you can find a running driving mini truck with low miles for anywhere near my price.I don't want or need your $200 but I just want a smmoth transaction.I want somone who needs the truck and I don't have the time to chase my money. Also Ebay listings cost money.b) Any mechanical issues other than what is listed: No the truck runs and drives fine. When I purchased it I had my mechanic look it over. He replaced four tires and all brakes and gave it a full tune up. I only put a few thousand miles on it.
