    Hello, I’m looking at buying a rust free 68 f250 cab. The guy wants $200, thoughts on price? Is it worth it?

    What would you plan to do with it? Restore it or a daily driver? How is the engine condition? $200 is really low and I'd worry there's something really bad about it.

    It’s only the stripped down cab, no interior, doors, front end, or engine/transmission. It is on a rolling 2wd frame.

    Sorry, I misunderstood!
    Its a decent price if it doesn't have any bad rust in the usual suspect spots:

    - back cab corners
    - the point where the floor pan meets the sheet metal from the front inner corners
    - front corner drip rails where the top sheet metal mates up

    Front glass looks like it's fogged, so replacing it needs to be factored in. Does it have the glove box door? What about the dash cluster? Seats? I see these things, and think if they aren't included and you don't already have them, $250 is going to turn in $750 - $1000+ really fast!

    One bad thing about it is that someone put in a sun roof…

    That's a '67 Cab. (Heater cont.) Price seems okay to me, but I'm in a different market. Roof will be hard to patch, but not as hard as a rusty floor would be.

    I sure would have bought it for my project. Spent more than that repairing rust on my cab

    Did you get that, or is it still available?
    I have a 67 that is originally that same color and I have all of the parts that go in it. My floor is shot.

    Too far away, I think, but the colour is the same! DSCF4478.JPG

    Where is North Battlefield Sk? Is that in Canada?
    That is definitely the right color and patina!

    About 500 miles north of Helena Mt. The cab is good-ish, but not good enough to be worth shipping. And it's going to be snow bound pretty soon.
    Really, I just sent the picture because I thought you might like the look.
