I’ll post up some pictures soon.

I bought this about three months ago when I started pulling apart my subaru.

The specs are: 2000 Dodge Dakota club cab, 4.7L V8, 12X,000 miles, working 4x4, tow hitch (not sure if its a complete towing package), clean title, working AC and cruise.

So far I’ve done:  
alignment, ($100)  
steering shaft ($200)  
Tires ($700)  
2 wheel bearings ($450)  
4x4 drive shaft rebuild @ fleet pride ($120)

Problems:  
-Fading paint,  
-spots of ugly surface rust which have not eaten through yet,  
-sticky lifter/valve under heavy load which doesn’t seem to affect performance. I’ve changed the oil 3 times now with different oil cleaners which haven’t helped at all.

in this condition the blue book comes up as $4,165

I am asking $4,000. Anything less than that and I’m loosing way too much money on it and I might as well keep it at least for the winter.

Reason for selling: Other than the fact I own 5 cars… I just sold the EJ257 from my subaru and the motor turned out to be junk. I need to refund some money.

well you can tell its deff seen many winters from the looks of it, just cause bb says its worth that much doesnt mean your gonna get that much. It gives you a rough idea based on the true condition of the vehicle. And you almost will never get money for something that you put into a car yea people will put it into consideration but thats about it any ways good luck
