Oh wow I need that! I’ve been thinking about a 4BTA cummins swap in a single cab...I never have the money when I need it :facepalm:
Might have to buy it to keep you from committing a Cardinal sin,
V6 or 4.7 truck , is forgivable but a HEMI truck........what'ch thinking son, someone go get the Cat o nine tails.:flowers:
 
Haha I didn’t realize it had a Hemi, I just want a cheap single cab that isn’t beat to crap. Besides, it’s ok to take a Hemi out if it’s a cummins, but that’s it. At least I didn’t say turbo LS :hide:

Not looking good for me going south today seems like everyone wants there car fixed today lol.
No worries.. I have a few things I want to clarify with the guy anyway and he hasn't responded.
 
I pulled a carfax and it's had 3 owners. In 2006 it was reported stolen and was in an accident the same day. Front end damage reported. Says it hit a tree. The last owner owned it from 2009-2012 and last reported mileage was 75000 in 2012 and now it has 78000 so only 3000 miles in 6 years? No reports of being sold after the last owner. Titled date issues is 10/23/12.
Mine had 54,000k by early 07, I bought it in 10’ with just under 60k an it had 5 owners lol. Should of prob kept looking, but I remember flooring it during the test drive an said to myself. Yea I want it.
 
Reading the thread from the beginning it started with a feel of a personal vehicle with mods being sold to being a quick flip. Just be sure it's condition translate to the asking price. Good luck..
 
My build sheet dont look anything like that. just says RumbleBee group under options. But on the dealers sale documents ( Neuville Motors Michigan who sold it new) It says AGG and 26g package. But nothing indicating its number which is 2606 on the dash bezel.

At the end of the day its just a numbered dress up package. Saw a rumblebee here with a homemade sticker with the number 6031.................

My gripe here is I'm on the airbag replacement list but because my truck is an import no one accepts responsibility for the faulty bags and its at my cost.

Other than that I flushed the radiator, replaced the coolant and thermostat and it still creeps up on the gauge when under load climbing hills. I think i may need the radiator core cleaned. Used Zerex G 05 which was $140 for 2 gallons.
I too use the Zerex G-05 coolant, but I buy a gallon then split it into two containers, then fill each one with distilled water, making two gallons of coolant. It's much cheaper than buying the premixed jugs of coolant.
 
John i agree with you, my price is for concentrate. Premix is $20 more expensive but still half the price of genuine Mopar coolant only available from the dealer.

Petrol is close to US$7 gallon for 91 which is our cheap grade. Cars aint cheap to run down here.
 
Good to see you posting Tui. Which of your vehicles gets driven the most? My guess is the Bee is your favorite.

$7 a gallon!! :eek:
 
Howdy Greg, with summer here I like to get out on my trike whenever i can cause its cheap to run and the aircon is the best! But shitty weather or special occasions the truck gets first pick.

I sold the Cadillac a couple of months ago simply because it sat in the shed and never got driven. At 10 miles a gallon it wasn't cheap to run as a daily driver.. I'm getting slow in body and mind and running out of energy for too many toys.

Bought a Toyota Avensis 2.4 for the wifes work vehicle an shopping hack. But its not for long drives as its got no room for my long legs, which sit up around my ears.

Weather is hot here, around 105 F for the last month and it drains my energy fast. Never been this hot before, they tell us its going to be the new normal. Oh joy, I cant wait!!!!!
 
Tui, I completely understand. Staying motivated is tougher and tougher. The cold affects me the most and with the way the flu is going around this year its easy just to stay in and put things off. Need to get busy with TnT days coming. Take care..

10-4 on the Flu bug, my wife and I are just getting over the Flu, it will keep you down for sure.

Well I think I'm gonna pass on the truck. Too many red flags. Doesn't make sense to me to own a vehicle for over two years drop a bunch of money on it and never transfer the title. Also no recipts on what was actually done under the hood. If I see some recipts and he transfers his title to his name I might still make a move on it. I'll keep looking around for now. I'd like to find another bee in black or a silver daytona...


There's a real nice well priced viper truck for sale I can't keep my eyes off.. :hide:
