1992 Ford F150 - $800
2vxiqfb.jpg


Sorta considering calling on this one. It's not cool but... it is a very cheap truck.

Great find Fir,

For $800 it's a no brainer. Out here they sell for $1,500-$3,000. Just check the compression and ******.

Like Mohawk says, it would make for a great runner. If you end up not liking it, it should a easy sell.

Just make sure you drive it like you stole it.

It's still up... Really tempted. Do people typically let you check compression when buying a used vehicle? I'd be worried about breaking off a spark plug if they're old and grodilated on somebody else's vehicle.

Also I found this one for 800$ too:

Or this one:

It's the same age as me!

Vidmar clone ("Spectrum") cabinet for $100 in El Cerrito CA. On a homemade cart with casters and some folding shelves:

"roller bearing drawers rated at 100lb"

Larryq,

You are always finding the good deals, nice job.

For $100 bucks, it's hard to go wrong with this cart on wheels. Certainly worth an extra $50 alone for not being red!

This typical cabinet wanna be a vidmar when it grows up looks almost the same as my Harbor Freight box with the lightweight clip on sliders, He's certainly pushing the limits on creative license in the description for even mentioning Vidmar (apples & oranges) But the best part is the custom welded cart and trays that the cabinet is mounted on, the second tray down looks like it was for collets. This could be a very useful cart for someone who has a small lathe and mill in their garage holding tooling and inspection gear, just needs to be cleaned up.

Tool/Storage Box- Split Top - $95 (Encino)

Here's another cart for someone in So Cal that has just been posted for around the same price. Not sure of the quality, it's made by MMP Medcart, these are general good quality especially if it's metal and not hard plastic like a lot of the new crash carts. It has split-top opening that slides out from the center with storage underneath similar to Snap-On and Matco mechanic carts.

Dimensions: 28" х 22" х 41"

"This is a box with drawers and may be used for tools or any other application that requires mobile storage. It features 4 drawers that have very good ball bearings and a deep storage area under spreadable top surface. The box is made from very sturdy steel and has great casters."

Athol #614 4" vise already Restored $60 (West LA, CA)

For $60 (almost $1/pound), this is a good deal for a vise that has already been cleaned up and restored. I don't see any cracks or welds, handle looks straight, I don't see any damage, the slide & jaws look great, seller says the jaws line up. If backlash is minimal, then you're good to go. These weigh 50 lbs

"4 inch athol bench vise
Very good condition
Jaws close evenly"

$60 for that, hard to do better. Thanks for the nice words earlier; I've got a ways to go before matching your output..

Larry,

Don't sell yourself short, you've been doing great and I would have easily have jumped on bunch of your deals if I lived closer. Thanks for posting them. Cheers!

Current listed price is $120 on that Spectrum toolbox with hand-welded cart. Wonder if he thought better of it and raised the price, or got a flood of interest and so jacked the price?

Interesting. Hard to believe someone would try to squeeze an extra $20 out of a $100 listing if they were getting flooded, but CL has all kinds.

Gotta be either a scam or she forgot a zero.
Isn't the top by itself worth two fifty?
Posting as of now says listed 8 hours ago. Who in their right mind WOULDN'T buy it right away if he lived anywhere nearby? Unless maybe it was stolen...?

That IS a smoking deal. I'm on it. That's worth the drive from Dallas and back. I've been looking at those for months and could get no one even close to under 700 for beat up ones. I sent her a text. I'm probably too late......

If I had any way of picking it up, I would have been all over it as well, even though I don't have the room for it. Hopefully one of you guys are able to snag it.

Browsing for garage cabinets and organization and saw this

https://baltimore.craigslist.org/bfs/5503115997.html

That is a pretty nice cabinet! Tons of possibilities with that for sure.

That's great, post it up in the general tools forum. This one is more for showing current deals that other GJ members can take advantage of.

Looks like the $250 snap on box find posted by PCMusicGuy was just some smoke. Listing has been flagged off of C/L which usually happens to scammer listings. I hope no GJ members wasted too much time or fuel chasing down this fake deal.

Just an FYI, there are a TON of people out there that will flag an ad after they've made contact just so no one else can get it.

It only takes two flags from two devices to do so. Flag it on you hope PC and on your phone from 4G and **** it's gone.

^ ^ That's what I thought as I paid $140 for 80 cf bottle about 75% full. That bottle looks bigger than mine.

Maybe a GJer in that area can go check it out for a deal.

Any GJer know what model this is ?? Don't know if bargain or not.

Region Midwest USA

Location Joplin, MO

Item Wilton metal cutting BAND SAW


Price $ 800 OBO

That's wilton's version of the roll-in bandsaw, D9040-1 I believe. If it truly is as new, I'd say it is pretty good. I don't think they make that model anymore.
