Sadly there are people who will pay his price.

The price is really dependant on just how much of the truck is not wore out. You kind of need to do the math. How much to buy plus how much to make it decent. Odds are at $3000 you are still above what you can buy one restored.

I know a guy who bought a pickup that moved under its own power. Leaked gas at about a gallon an hour. Was paint over rust pits and he spent $8000 for it. Trust me it was a case of a guy with way too much money for his senses.
