Your problem is the obsolete, non-turbo engine, and the manual transmission. Buyers aren't scared of an automatic in a truck that size anymore, so they want automatics. They also want air conditioning. It also needs to have a current, valid DOT inspection. In my area, a 33 year old truck with no turbo and a manual transmission would probably high bid at about $1500 at auction. I've seen larger IH dump trucks of that vintage with a DT466 sell for less than $2500. I know it's seems like a big truck to you, but it doesn't have the GVW of a modern truck that size. I would bet a 2000 Ford F450 with a 7.3 has almost the same GVW as your truck, they were available up to 16,000 GVW. In today's world, they would both cost about the same to operate in fuel, so buyers want as much GVW as they can afford. Trucks that size from the last 20 years also drive and ride much better. Just the way of the market now.

We have already talked about some of the colors the unit might leave as clues to its well-being. Now we are going to use our noses to diagnose particular smells. ELECTRICAL SMELLS
