Hey Ryan,
After reading this, I would consider selling my older swap meet truck... It's a lifelong CA truck... I've had it a couple years. 1975 Camper Special - which of course, is a long bed single cab - rear slider. 3/4 ton with the original 454 and TH400 4.10 Dana rear. Front disc. 8 lug. two year old LT tires on newer 16" rims. And I can corroborate the 8mpg - I bet it's cheaper to ship than drive to you, but it's an option... I'd get you at LAX. One repaint. replacement fenders at the front, needs a hood, and I have a grill. Original AC truck, not hooked up. Has headers and new exhaust. Runs like it should, but it's an unrestored truck with no surprises IMHO. I'll include original GM brackets for the AC compressor. 27K miles - certainly 127K. clean title in my name of course - will be no issue to import at Port Huron. I'd sell it to you for $10K CDN - which leaves you 20K+ to transport & import it then fix it up how you like over the winter... PM if interested - I'm not really selling it, but it might tick a lot of your boxes. Cheers, Anthony |

Dang, that is a really nicely optioned truck. I bet that Hawaiian blue was gorgeous when new.
The deals always seem to be on the other side of the continent, eh Ryan ...

LAX to Port Huron is 2417 miles / 8 mpg = 303 gallons X $3.80 = $1,150. Plus a plane ticket and a couple nights hotel. I think Anthony is right, that it may cost about the same to ship and not take up 3-4 days of your time.
Be interesting to see where the bat price lands to compare.

$3.80 a gallon?!!
You'd have to get about 500 miles away from here to hit that I think. Not quite double here... gah! |

I don't know how anyone lives in that state. Gas was $3.54 on our Chevelle club cruise today. Non-oxy 91 premium for our cars was $4.50

Looks like a no reserve auction and checks all the boxes except "handsome". If you can get it cheap enough, then a paint job may not blow the budget.

And then there is this one, under your budget, and you don't even need to buy a trailer:
