Too many Bishi's
Ok. So i need to start transitioning out of old cars so i can enjoy new ones. To do that I think i need to start swapping things around.
I'm leaning on selling the Mad Max. I don't think anyone will pay want I want for it with the Mivec, so I think I would need to pull the motor and put it in my blue Ram 50. Only because I like that trucks options and body a little more. Problem is what motor do i put in the max? The 3.0?
What do i put the Mivec in? The SWB Montero or the Ram 50.
I also have a spare 3.5L out of a 2001 Montero that runs. Do i put that into the Max or the Monti?
Ahhhhhh!!! I have too many projects a so little time.

I say you keep the mivec where it is and post it for sale on bringatrailer. Serious. You might get enough to make it worth your while.

Re: Too many Bishi's
Someone was willing to give me actual dollars for my dumpster fire of a truck. I don't think you'll have any trouble selling yours.
List it as is and see what happens. Worst case, you're proven right and it doesn't sell and you just move on with plans you're already considering.

I think about all the things we could have done, all the miracles we could have achieved, if we were all just a little bit better than it turns out we are.

What Jeff said - make it simple for yourself.
Re: Too many Bishi's
It’s what coop said as well.

Re: Too many Bishi's
I don't know about BaT because they're a little snooty on what they'll take but Cars and Bids is more more open to oddities like the mad max

Re: Too many Bishi's
No I mean put it on cars and bids you'll probably get a decent amount for it.
Re: Too many Bishi's
What would you all estimate i would get? Feel free to chime in because I want to know if its worth my time.









Re: Too many Bishi's
I don’t see why you couldn’t get over 5k for it. Honestly people love that body style and you did what everyone wants. Added power.

5 is too low. Hell, I'd give you 5 right now if I had a place to park it.
This guy thinks he can get 10 for his boring as shit, bone stock 2WD. The only thing it has on yours is nicer paint, and it may not even be that much nicer in person.

Re: Too many Bishi's
Yeah I could see a truck like that going for $10k+ easy especially in this market.

Re: Too many Bishi's
I feel like just the standard truck like mine with the 3.0 sells for $7-10k in my market. I probably wouldn't sell for less than $15k.

Re: Too many Bishi's
Good. So list it at 15 and see what happens.
