Re: 1969 GMC LWB should I or not?
The owner was wanting around $9000 but after a little talking would go no lower than $8000. I know this is less then it would cost me to redo my 1970 LWB that is optioned about the same, but it seems long boxes just don't carry a lot of value in the market.
This truck has a newer blue block 350 with a rebuild turbo 400, power steering, power drum brakes, new radiator, carb and exhaust out to back bumper. New inner and outer front fenders, rust free box sides added with new rear inners. Box and tail gate dented inside but cleaned and repainted.
Crawled under, over and around it for an hour and could find no rust or bubbles on the body. The only thing I found was one of the rear end struts to the frame has rust in the center and is badly corroded in between. Needs better tires also.
Locally daily drivers range from $2200 with rust and needing things to $5500 with older paint but OK for a few years....rust in all front inner fenders...
Any opinions????
Thanks
Kanuck
