Is it just me....
...or does the seller have $20k on the for sale sign in the back window? Don't get me wrong, I'm definitely a proponent of our trucks selling for more respectable prices, but over $8k (maybe even $20k) asking price for a molested truck? With all of the alterations, and the absence of the original steering wheel, shift lever, dimmer switch, seat upholstery pattern, aftermarket stereo unit, different seat belt buckles, heavily applied bedliner, Holley carb, etc., I personally doubt this is truly a ~30k original mile well kept survivor (more like the aforementioned 130k), but more of a reconditioned example in someone's vision of what they wanted it to be, though I have been wrong before. The advertised A/C must be some assembled system, maybe parts off an RX-7 that's not visible in the pics? Where's the compressor and lines? My guess is this seller saw what Cameron and Pettit were trying to get for their REPU recently and thought they must be sitting on a goldmine with this white one. I may be being overly critical, but if I were going to consider paying $8k+, it wouldn't be for this one, but I do hope it sells... it helps bring the values up to where they should be.
Good luck to the seller.
Neal.

There's no a/c or abs
no compressor. no a/c lines. no additional vents in the cab like we always see with REPU a/c.
the ebay auction was placed by an auctioneer, i'd guess the seller is giving them a % to list it. i'd bet the auctioneer just checked those boxes out of habit when creating the auction.
nice REPU nonetheless, hope it sells at a good price.

Well, I'm sure you've all seen that this one is back up again, closes in a day or two. Wondering if it is ever going to hit the unknown reserve....
