Parts? Screw that! I'd fix that thing. It's still pretty even if it's wrecked...

500 to 1000 would be my guess. In 99 I totaled my 96 X cab loaded pickup that booked for 16 and a buddy of mine bought it for 2800

That frames bent pretty bad it would need a new one. I know where you can get a short frame pretty cheap in lubbock along with a front clip if any of you guys buy it. Lubbock is about 2 hours from Odessa

Do you have more info about the auction? I am in Dallas, TX so may go check it out and see what it goes for.

Most salvage yards try to buy to where the motor/trans will at least recoup the investment so it might sell for $1000. Really depends on what tranny that is. If the truck was at the memphis salvage sale I would say $1200...maybe more depending on how impressive the motor is on closer inspection and what tranny that is.

If it is a salvage sale you need a dealers license to get in the door (assuming its like Memphis). Either that or know someone and pay like $10 or so the site will charge you as a guest. You can't bid as a guest of someone though.

My friend has 72 front clips that range from cherry to salvageable. Just depends on what you want to spend. He also has front clips for every other year
