Are you asking if this is fair? Or trying to help sell it? Perhaps the truck classifieds would be the better place for this post.

True true true, with gas prices right now, trucks are a luxury, not a need anymore.

Typical example of why you should never put more money into a vehicle then it is worth unless you plan to never never never get rid of it..... OR be willing to take the loss.

yea 2 grand for a motor that I cant hear run sounds like a scam is the first thing I'd think of, he should really put the fuel pump cap and rotor on so it runs at least, you'd have a way better chance selling it. I'm not accusing you of running a scam.

as a potential buyer if you told me you just put $3500 into a motor that didnt run i would instantly think the rebuild got done by a novice mechanic and the motor was full of problems. a fuel pump, cap and rotor is no more than $50 at any parts store and simple to install he should really consider getting these parts to make it run. IMO your going to play helll trying to sell a truck with a nonrunning rebuilt motor and it needs to have the tranny swapped. that sounds like way too much work for that price.
