Found this thing to maybe flip. But I really am confused since Ford didn't transfer to the 2000's body style until 99. But this truck is a 99?

Edit: I don't think I would be able to tow this home with a 2017 Sierra right. It's a half ton pulling a 3/4 ton so I don't think that would be that smart..

The only thing I can think of is that ford probably didn't switch until about half way thru the year. Almost like how Chevrolet had the 07 classic then they switched to the nnbs body style in late 07.
The vin says it's a 99 f250 so as long as the vin matches the truck then it's true.

KBB says private party sells between $2500 to $4500. But thats in good condition, so as long you think you can get it back to good shape then you might double your money. But if it was me I don't think I would risk it. I mean it is a ford, sooo. :p

How far do you have to tow it?

99 f250 weighs about 5800lbs

I got a 2012 GMC Sierra and I pulled a 2006 ford expedition with no problem. The expedition weighs about 5600lbs. I think you will be fine as long as you know how to tow and that you have the proper equipment like Trailer brakes and HD trailer.

Nobody goes by blue book to sell to private party just talk em down as low as you can and give em sob stories or something and make sure vehicle ain't junk make sure you dog it hard when go to look at it. I've never flipped a three quarter ton before I'd just keep it for a work truck if I were you

Already have a 1500 ram i got for 400. It doesn't run from fuel pump so I will run it on started fluid and just see if the transmission makes and grinds shifting through the gears.

If i can even get in contact with them. I've called 3 times and yet no answer, might just have to drive there and knock on the door.
