THIS VEHICLE IS LOCATED IN PERRY, GA.  IT CAN ONLY BE VIEWED AND PICKED UP BY SCHEDULING AN APPOINTMENT BY TEXTING 478-390-3502.

This is a true estate vehicle having belonged to Mr. Crowder and the title will be signed by the administrator of the estate. The engine is the 4.0L V-6, and it has the 5 speed manual transmission.  The battery is completely dead.  A jump box was used to crank the truck for the video.  There is some engine noise (listen in video).  The winner will need to be prepared with a battery, and / or a trailer.  Please schedule an inspection to see what you think.

Update 7/7/25: The title issue that caused us to pull this vehicle from the Crowder Estate Auction has now been corrected, and so we will be able to deliver clean title.

If the winning bidder is NOT a licensed car dealer, the fees above will be added to the winning invoice prior to payment.  The winning bidder's card will not be automatically charged at the conclusion of the auction so that he or she will have an opportunity to pay with cash or certified funds at the home office if preferred.  The winning bidder will need to call to set an appointment to visit our main office located at 107 Oak Valley Drive, Macon, GA 31217 on Monday (July 21) to handle the title paperwork and obtain a drive out tag BEFORE picking up the vehicle at the auction site by appointment.
