Hi all. I need some help from the forum!
I am considering a vehicle trade for a pair of 1972 4x4 short beds and am struggling trying to determine a fair value for the trucks. The red truck has a 350 with a 3-speed column shift, tach dash and a very clean interior. The body is pretty darn solid with a little bubble rust here and there, but nothing major. There are a couple spots where some work has been done on the bed sides, but they are not bad. The paint is fair, needs some clear coat repair in a few spots, but is decent. Cab supports are sold, floors are solid. Frame looks good, but a few spots have rusted through... about the size of a quarter on each side near the rear wheels. Runs and drives nicely. Power steering, power brakes.
The other truck is a 72 with a 68 front end. 350 / automatic. The body, frame, supports, etc are very solid all around. Paint is terrible. Interior is rough, but floors are solid. The 350 cranks, but is not firing. (we really did not make any real effort to get it started) Truck has been sitting for years and is in need of serious cleaning.
My intent would be to keep the 2 tone with the 68 front clip. We would detail the engine compartment on the red one and sell it.
I am most interested in determining a value for the red one. Any help is & would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks all!
