Go see the truck, it is hard to put a price on it, without seeing it, or at least pictures.
The truck sitting in the showroom for many years wouldn't have hurt it. More importantly, did the oil and antifreeze get changed? Condensation inside the engine can do some damage, if the truck were in left to the elements. Meaning, barn stored as opposed to climate control. Did the fuel system get drained? Condition of tires? Ect....
What ever your decision, I'd move in on this deal. Sounds like a good truck.
Keep in mind, only 2 people need to be happy with this deal. You the buyer and he, the seller. Price is not always the determining factor. I know I'd sell my cars for a cheaper price if I felt they were going to a proper home.
Hope this helps. Jeff
