What do you guys think this thing would go for? I put a fair bit of money into it considering I ripped the guy off who was selling it. It needed work but it's totaly great now. I'm only asking because I'm looking at an 01 b3000 5sp reg cab thats more in line with my new side business building decks and fences. Plus my fiance thinks it looks real nice and wants me to get it, so what can i say.

BTW all the b2200's in ontario right now are listed between $2700 and $3500 so i was thinking $2500 for a quick sale but what do you think?

You could easily get 2500 cert/e-test for it. Visually,looks extremely clean for a truck in our area.

I paid $1800 for mine,cert,with 128k. Yours is a year newer than mine,but with more miles,but looks like it's in really good shape,so I wouldn't see any problem with someone coming along and giving you 2500 for it. Hell,if I had the cash I'd pick it up myself.

Thanks Mikey, I had thought of certifying it but I dunno what it might need. It passed needing a windshield last time and I replaced a brake line later so I seems good that way mabey I should try that.

I'll need to clean it up again after the winter (the pic is from the fall) but its basicly the same.

This will be avaliable for the right offer in about a week since I'm pretty much done rebuilding my 323.

I forgot to mention IT DOESN'T SMOKE there is a slight oil drip from the front main seal area but nothing major. I was told the head was rebuilt not too long ago (20000-30000KM) by a previous owner who was an engine builder no documentation though, other than that it was owned by an engine building shop.

Right on. Definetly looks like a good little project for someone to pick up. Is it injected?

I think that your right on for the price of $2500 for a very very quick sale. If you list it at that in the trader it will sell on the first day no problem. I would even go as high as $3000 because it is still stock and has under 200k, you have left the market open from customizers, to shops to a guy who wants a small pickup.

I would get it safetied and your golden to sell it in 3 days or less.

Mikey its carbed not injected. It also has a new main cat.

Thanks guys my dad thought I'd get $1000 if i was lucky, he thinks a mint 120000km one would be like $1500 though

Id like to sell it but I kinda want to find exactly what I want first. Its hard to sell your things and this will be the first vehicle I've ever sold (not including part outs).

I forgot to mention I'd send along an N/A 13b with it for anyone on the site who's interested.

It's definetly worth your $150ish to get it cert/e-tested,especially since you'll make that money back when you sell the truck. Right now is a good time of year to sell too,because everyone's looking after a long winter.

I bought my truck at the end of March last year,so I'm sure you'll get some bites right away. I just sold my Isuzu on Sunday,so the market's open!

Now I'm getting uncertian about selling it. It drives soo much nicer than the new trucks and the short shifter is nicer too. The other thing is the one truck I went to look at was in worse shape than mine and its an 01! The pics looked good but it was all scratched up and rusty on the other side that wasn't in the pic. I guess he thought I wouldn't notice. And its $9000 I could do alot for that much.

My beast is holding up to what I'm asking of it (hauling lumber) I was so tempted by the 3800lb towing capacity of a b3000. Maybe my answer is a turbo 4 swap?

if you are all about hauling stuff you can change gear ratio - but you'll sacrifice topend and MPG or kilometer or whatever you crazy canadians use for distance to fuel ratio

I'd say keep the truck man. You really don't want a Ranger do you?
