swb frame fs cheap
 

I just came into possesion of a early 90's swb frame complete except rearend. Front suspension, gas tank etc. What's it worth?

Re: What's it worth?
 

2wd or 4? Is there a difference in the frames when you get into that year range?

Re: What's it worth?
 

2wd, and I don't know.

I just wished you were closer cuz I would love to convert my 88 to a short bed truck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: What's it worth?
 

its worth whatever someone would pay for it, i know i want mine to be short box too really bad and i would maybe pay up to 1k for a good shortbox frame, depends what condition it is in and how much money i had for it. does anyone know how hard it is to just turn a long box into a shortbox in these years?

Re: What's it worth?
 

Well, as a guideline, KBB lists a shortbed truck as being $100 more valuable than an identical longbed. I would guess that's a little low, since you could get close to that selling the frame for scrap.

If I had it, I'd take a look at what I've got in it. If a couple hundred makes you feel like you got something out of it, maybe you help a fellow truck enthusiast get a rig on the road a little cheaper than the guy down the street would have.

Just my $.02

my worry would b shipping it. Gas prices would make goin and getting it and comin back really costly!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: What's it worth?
 

Here's the deal. All I want is my gas money back, so say $50 w/no shipping. I'll even meet someone within a reasonable distance ~100 miles for the cost of the gas. It's got the gas tank (w/out pump) the front suspension looks complete, the rear end is missing but the springs and shocks are still there.

WOW wished it was closer!!!!!!!!!!

seems like you can never sell these frames unless you don't actually have it...

i have a x cab short bed frame just like yours krue, no rear end, and it is probally going to get cut up soon, so i can get rid of it.

but as soon as i cut it up, i will find 10 people looking for short bed x cap frame

thats the way it goes.

I hear ya, luckily I just cleaned most of my scrap iron, so it will sit awhile until I get another trailer load, then it's gone.
