Had my old 87 Dakota parked out at the farm place.Parked it about 4 plus years ago. Hadn't run since last year and only for a few minutes then. Guy calls and asked, you want to sell it . I said, ya. Does it run. I said not worth a darn. How much, I said what will you give me . He says, 100-150. I said ok, Says he will drive over and take a better look at it. Ok, next day, calls, asks, do you have a battery, I said no. Also told him starter and relay were not working well. He says, well, maybe I will call and see what a starter costs, and if we can get it running. I said, it is what it is. No more , no less. Then he said, well he intended to use it and it would probably cost a few hundred to get it ok to use. I said yaa, tires probably worth more than truck. He says, well, I will think about it. Few days later, I got it running on most cylinders, not all, drove it to salvage yard, he gave me $200 bucks, I'm happy. It is what it is doesn't seem to register with some. Darned if I was going to spend a bunch of time getting it going to his satisfaction. All I wanted was to get it out of the way.
