Looking for a cheap vehicle of almost any kind. No V8 or big cars. Not worried about cosmetics, but must be decent mechanical shape. Prefer small truck, but whatever comes along that doesn't need mechanical work.
I will be buying this and giving it to someone in need, so cheaper is better.

I know someone with a 1991 Civic 4 door. around 180K on the car itself but has an under 40K Japanese import engine in it now. Gets 40 miles to the gallon. Guy is driving it to work and back everyday. He lives in Baileyton and works at Eastman. It is the guy that I traded the TJ too. He is asking $2000 for it. That may be more than you can go but I thought I would through it out there.

Thanks Bill, but I don't have that much cash to donate right now.

Thanks!
Still more than I was hoping to spend to give away, but at least it's possible with that one.

It isn't a truck, needs a little work but it's the cheapest that anyone has suggested yet.
Good luck on your quest.

Cruising craigslist for some used tires and found this Commanche. Sounds like its what your looking for. Small truck for cheap. No title though.

Thanks, but I don't like buying a vehicle without title as I believe it might be stolen.

I have a Chrysler LeBarron I would like to get 800 out of. I drive it to work every day. It does have cosmetic issues. only reason I am selling is because the truck I owe money on needs a transmission. might be open to partial trades and of course always open to any offers. have pics can meet somewhere if you want to see call or pm me 423 963 7301
