Anyone know this truck (LML)

I know it aint a ford, but I have mine listed for sale / trade on CL. This Mazda is a little older than I really want. (I have my ad on CL for a 1992+ Mazda, or a B3000/4000 (Ford)
My old Mazda was also a 1990, but this one is a 4x4, which working at Cypress is a bonus. plus it is a 2.6L instead of a 4.9L. I just can't affoard the gas for the Ford.
As much as I do like my truck. Anyways, the guy said in his email that either the engine is seized or the starter is dead. How dumb do you have to be, not to know the difference between Starter & Seized.

Is there anyone in Maple Ridge (phone number is from MR) that knows this truck?

I just talked to the guy, and he said he put a bar on the engine and it wouldn't budge. Tried to tell me that it is just the starter jammed into the fly wheel... Uh I dont think so...

I told him no thanks..

The pictures you posted didnt show up for me.
All I know about those mazdas, is they are pretty decent little trucks untill they start breaking down. The quality in the early nineties is better then a ranger, or an s10.

Sometimes some guys on craigslist are ignorant, and they think you are too, just have to be a little careful.

I removed the pictures from Photobucket after I talked to him. My last truck was a B2200, great truck, almost 400,000k on the engine/body. Still runs good, would still be driving it, cept it is owned by my Pop, and he yanked the insurance from it.. The B-series trucks are almost impossible to kill, it take a whole lot of stupidity. I still cant figure out how he siezed the engine, that is really hard, unless he blew the headgasket & ran it without oil all at the same time...

Yeah I know about the morons from CL, I have this one POS, wanting to buy my truck (the ford), he offered me $900 first time, I told him 1200, and he said $1000, I told him sure, but I keep the job box. ($2500 worth of aluminum). He's like "last offer 1000, for everything" your truck isn't worth anything more than a grand... HAHAHHAHAHA 94 F150 that doesn't require aircare in good running condition... ******* idiot....

I have a fridge on Craigslist. It seems like the first thing anyone wants to do is knock down the price, before even seeing the fridge.

I`ll give you $10 for the smoke house :lol:

No kidding eh... I finally just said screw it, and jacked the price by $1000, and placed another ad in buysell.com

Fridge? Hell I will only charge you 50 bucks to take that away Zip!!

Yeah I have thrown a few lowball offers out on craigslst too, I will admit to it!

Agent I would definatly take a look if you were closer, but that gets to be a pretty long drive for me! But it looks like a pretty neat truck, worth at least 500 bucks cash on craigslist

Siezed engine, aint worth my time. I wouldn't even give him $100 for it. Plus I dont have anywhere to work on it.
