Buying a high miles 7.3 powerstroke?

So I'm looking at this truck i want to buy. Its a 1999 ford f350 powerstroke diesel crew cab long bed. It looks like its in amazing condition. No rust other than the front bumper. He wants $7000, but the catch is that it has 305000 mils on it. I'm a diesel guy so i know diesels last forever. 500,000-600,000 miles if kept in good condition. If i have a diesel mechanic look at it and its in good condition, is it a good deal? I'm only 20 years old. Its my first truck i'm going to buy on my own so i don't think its a bad investment. I will be doing work with it. For a first truck it isn't that bad i don't think. Any advice or mechanics input?

Truck turning over but not firing? Gas may not be getting to carburetor

The truck is a 1984 Ford F250, 5.8L v8 351c engine. It's been sitting for a few years and I've decided to try and get it running again. When you try to start it, the engine will turn over but it will not fire. If it is sprayed with ether it will try and fire but will not stay running. I've changed the spark plugs, fuel filter, and fuel pump. It was originally thought that the fuel pump was bad, but I replaced that yesterday and it made no difference. Could the gas lines be clogged or gone bad? I'll be replacing the spark plug wires next as they're pretty worn out and would need to be changed anyway, maybe that'll help. Any ideas of what it could be or any tips?

Would a 1998 ford V10 have coils or plug wires?

My brother has a F350 V10 that had the engine seize up on him. I found a 1998 ford bus that has another V10 in it that's good, but I think it wouldn't work without alot of work, would it? It probably has wires vs coils and different intake, heads, and upper plenum, if I were to guess anyways. I haven't seen the engine in the bus, but just seen it online for sale, and it is less than buying just a salvage yard engine and I can hear it run too. But it wouldn't work, would it?

Subwoofer kicks in and out?

Alright so I just got a new truck (1997 ford f250) and it has two subwoofers with tweeters in the front under the dash on either sides and I just got the truck and I really don't know a lot about any kind of that stuff but my problem is when I'm going down the road every once in a while they will just shut off and might come back on if I hit a bump but last night they shut off and I've been driving a good bit today and they haven't came back on yet and really the only thing I can think of is my ground cable but I pulle it off and wire brushed where it was connected (the amp is underneath the passenger seat) and put it back on but that's all I've done to it

Buying a powerstroke with high miles?

Found a deal on a 97 ford f350 7.3 turbo diesel with an auto trans. 7k dollars, crew cab long bed. He has papers to prove new injectors, new turbo, new steering box, all fluids, bushings, etc. That show approx. 10k dollars in work. He says it shifts hard sometimes. My question is will this transmission last? I do not want to rebuild it. Any tips on buying this truck? Is it a bad investment?

How much do you think this truck is worth?

It's a 2008 Ford F350 Super Duty with a Super Cab. 79,000 miles, hasn't been driven since late 2014. No visible dents or scratches but there's a very minor paint job near the front bumper. Live in Wisconsin so there's obviously undercarriage rust but not a lot. Interior is flawless. Standard bed size, 5 feet.

It was repossessed by my credit union a few days ago, they said they'll take 3 bids and highest gets the truck. I did some Kelly Blue Book research and it said a truck in that condition is worth anywhere from $15,000 to $20,000.

Anyone else wanna take a guess before I put my bid in? (Thinking $16,500 for a bid)
