Is this person here? Anyone know about this?
looks like a two toned body like mine, if it looks liek he has a contact and if anybody could share that'd be swell. maybe thats unrealistic tho. I dont have FB. But I could put my truck's guts/interior into that thing and have a rig again.

That’s a dangerous combination!

Who knew, I seriously appreciate that.


I also have a car trailer if anyone needs it!

Hey Melinda, I am interested in that motor but I’m still waiting to be approved to join that Facebook group. Have you been in the touch with the seller by any chance?
I have chatted but my last chat was not replied too.

Anyone seen this one yet? Looks like a solid spring green unit! In Elizabeth which is between my office and Monument. I can check it out for you if desired.

Dang...this 40 looks to be very complete and not molested. Someone NEEDS to jump on it!

I messaged the seller and no response. It's been on market for one week so I'm sure it's gone by now.

I grew up in Elizabeth, and have wanted that exact 40 since I started driving. The bumper gives it away. I drove by it nearly every day during my middle school/high school days. Storage, funds, and fluctuation in life have always kept me from moving on it.
I'm not far from the seller. I've got some time, I'll swing by to see if it's still hangin' out in the same place. I'll see if I can make contact with the seller and get some more info.

Hopefully someone here gives it a new home.

For reference, this is how it's been hangin' out for 20+ years. I took this back in August 2023.

I got a reply from him the day his ad went up. He's taking bids and claims he had a bid of $12000, sight unseen.

I message a lot of folks selling stuff on FB MP and there's a particular type of person that thinks they've stumbled onto their retirement plan. This guy strikes me as that type. Not that this 40 is junk, it does look pretty dang nice. Hopefully I'm wrong, but be prepared for a difficult negotiation and a high price.

@Cruisertrash I also fb messaged him and got the same vibe, the dance of high imaginary pending offer prices round and round just completely switched me off— good luck to whoever has the patience to play the game with him.

I wouldn't let the missing title be an issue. I'm currently going through the CO title replacement process on my 78 and so far so good. Just time and paperwork.
