Would it be worth fixing the brakes on this truck? I'm told the engine runs very well.

The old ford diesels are decent motors. If you do not mind working on that truck I say go for it. Their is one similar in Diesel Power mag as a project truck. If you read the mag it could help you out over the time you own it.
I also feel you could talk her down more. Brakes to me are easy but, not to everyone.
Wish you luck with your decision! :thumbsup:

I would probably worry more about the transmission problems more then the brakes but even if you have to replace everything it still wouldnt be that horrible IMO. How many miles? picture is to small for me to see

Either 94K or 194K. The lady said she couldn't tell because the odometer only has 5 banks + the white one?
just a number

7.3's are great engines, yes the transmissions suck, I'm on my third at 200,000 miles.
