jerry325w, all i know about Old Navy is the clothes are priced cheaper than other places which means my wife spends less on the kids and I can spend more on my cars. God bless Old Navy ! Maybe she can schmooz the manager and get ME the truck. !!!! Mike

Talking Re: Old Navy store prop trucks - worth anything?

My mother-in-law is the manager of the Old navy store here in Pikeville. After a drunk skid into the entrance of the local mall no one noticed that the new doors were 1 foot narrower.

You guessed it. Couldn't get it out assembled. It looks like I may get it for the tear down.................

Well my Boss here at the local Napa store knew the guy that had to remove one,here in East Tenn.And he got it for free,just remove it. Had to take off the fenders,running boards to get it out. Is in good shape with rechromed bumpers grill,head lite rings. No engine,trans,but with drive line,tourque tube. Not bad at all. jobob

So you joined the HAMB just to try to sell us suckers your six free trucks for $2,500 each. Then in your PM, you tell me what a good deal it is since the one you have on eBay is past that already, THEN you have the nerve to tell me to email you with any questions since you have no plans to visit this site much.
Take your fuckin' trucks to eGay, and don't let the fuckin' door hit you on the way out!

i am aware how ebay works. i just think its interesting that people are getting these trucks for free and people are willing to pay that. the 6 trucks guy emailed me offering them to me, its too hard to deal with non title vehicles in this state and he showed no intrest in trying to obtain a title. for that kind of profit he could at least go and get a title for each one. i thought it would be cool to get on of these trucks but then i came to reality and figured id rather have a rusty old bomb than a truck everyone knows i got fro mthe old navy and id have to explain to everyone how i got it.

Default Re: Old Navy store prop trucks - worth anything?

I'm a current Old Navy employee, and one thing I can assure you...the trucks are not being sold by individual stores. I do not know of their destination, but I do know that the trucks are being removed from all stores by a contracted party. Because most of the trucks will not fit through the front doors, they are being disassembled partially to allow for easier removal. I don't know of any "displays" that have engines, but outside of the frame, the doors, the windows, and a few things here and there, the trucks are "bare". No tranny, no engine, basically no working "guts" to them. They are propped up on carts and can be moved around with one person very easily. There's actually no bed either, just the frame around it. There's a plywood box that acts as the bed of the truck.

The store received a memo today, warning all the stores of imposters that have went to at least one Old Navy, claiming to be the "removers" of the truck, and successful removed the truck. However, this truck wound up on ebay, for sale, and apparently Gap, Inc. our parent company, found out about it...and subsequently, the auction has been terminated by ebay. I'm not sure if one person purchased the trucks, or where they are destined for, but I highly doubt they will be destroyed, unless there would be a substantial profit in it for the company. If there's one thing I've learned about this company...it's that the "big wigs" won't do anything, unless they can "turn a buck" on the deal.

As far as what the trucks are worth, I couldn't tell you, but if you would intend to purchase one, and restore it...you'd have your hands full trying to build that thing back into something resembling an actual truck.

For the price that one went for 5K+ a guy could buy a hell of a nice cab and frame and buy new fenders, hood and bed. Then either use a stock frame or one of those (trick of the week) S 10 frames.
Do the math and see what you come up with.
My self I'd rather start with a cab that no one had touched before even if it had a few small problems.
Clarification, By that I mean a cab that I don't suspect of having sub par repairs done on it or hidden bondo to cover what ever.

Funny....all of these FNG's with 1 post trying to sell old navy trucks. I got 4 msgs on myspace (my myspace page is listed on here) from different people purportedly saying that they have these for sale. I'm with the rest of you....let's see some happy customer's that have one in their possession instead of from 'a guy that knows a guy that works for ajax van lines' or whatever.

I went and looked at 7 of the trucks tonight. My buddy bought the best 2 of the bunch. They varied in the amount of bondo and quick patch jobs but all had some. He owns a body shop and is going to make a driver shop truck out of the better one. I thought he paid too much, but after what I've seen people paying on ebay maybe he did all right. I'd post a pic, but they all look the same!
