Thinking about selling - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

72 CustomCamper · 12-02-2004, 10:00 PM

Been thinking of selling my truck and need some help figuring out value. It's a 72 Custom Deluxe 20 Custom Camper with Highlander option. The cab is in better than average condition, it needs rockers and cab corners that come with the truck. Cab mounts are perfect but could use new bushings. The bed is a 69 bed with 2 rust through holes in the rear corners by tailgate. The drivetrain consists of a 66 396 with about 2000 miles on rebuild but had sat for a few years. An 86 700R4 trans and a Dana 60 rear with 4:10 gears. The truck needs a little body work as in core support, fenders that come with truck and doors. Pics of the truck can be seen here http://community.webshots.com/album/62428177KyHPfo

I'M SURE SOMEONE FROM BACK EAST COULD GIVE YOU A BETTER IDEA. OUT WEST HERE THAT WOULD BE A PARTS TRUCK & BRING MAYBE $700-$1000, & WITHOUT THE 396....... IT WOULD BRING MAYBE 1/2 OF THAT. I'M SURE IT WOULD BRING MORE BACK EAST WHERE YOU COULD SELL IT AS A BUILDER.

CHUCK -- THAT WILL ADD ANOTHER $300 - $400 TO THE VALUE.

Yeah Randy, I know I'll regret it,but money's tight and I hardly drive the monster...

you want to sell it. i may want to buy it. as a buyer i do not want to insult the seller.what is the least u gotta have.have u done any reseach?

**special-K** · 12-03-2004, 08:24 AM

What`s the story on the`72diesel?Hey green68c10,make him an offer,dude.I`m curious as heck about that diesel.

GMC AMI · 12-03-2004, 08:38 AM

72, is this a free truck? Price is to be posted on any for sale post according to the rules I read. Thanks, I am price crazy!

72 CustomCamper · 12-03-2004, 03:12 PM

Hey special-K, the truck had a 6.2 diesel in it that my uncle installed before I got the truck from him. I would of kept the diesel in it but it majorly overheated and screwed up the engine so I swapped in a big block.

Mike Files, that is what this post is about, trying to figure out a value.

green68c10, where are you located?

If it's only worth $1000 -1500 I'll just keep it and finish fixing it up...

Chuck

junkyardjohn · 12-03-2004, 05:48 PM

I HOPE I DIDN'T BURST YOUR BUBBLE. LIKE I SAID.. MAYBE IT'S WORTH A WHOLE LOT MORE BACK EAST. HERES AN EXCELLANT VERSION OF A WESTERN STATE BARGAIN FOR $1100.

*Randy70C-10* · 12-03-2004, 06:14 PM

John, that's a $3500 Blazer over here.

junkyardjohn · 12-03-2004, 06:27 PM

MEMBER LJBEAR HAS IT FOR SALE FOR $1100. EVEN IF SOMEONE BACK EAST PAYS $1000 SHIPPING, IT STILL LOOKS LIKE A MONEY MAKER.

JOHN

cheyenne10 · 12-03-2004, 06:53 PM

Posted 72 also has factory air conditioning. Does it happen to have the 72 ac brackets and the 72 stock alternator brackets and BB PS setup? All these things add to the value.

72 CustomCamper · 12-03-2004, 09:34 PM

Well I paid $400 for that blazer,and made about $600 parting it out...

Chuck

junkyardjohn · 12-03-2004, 10:12 PM

GOOD FOR YOU.

I HOPE I DIDN'T HURT YOUR FEELINGS WITH MY ESTIMATE OF YOUR TRUCK. SOME TRUCKS ARE JUST WORTH MORE DOLLARS AS PARTS.

Don't worry about it John. I'm pretty tough skined. I also know out your way my truck would probably be parted, but for the east coast it's in better than average condition. I think I might have to take Randy's advise and hang on to the old girl. I guess now I'll have to start playing the lottery.LOL...

The $400 Ohio K/5 I found for huck was WAY worse than that thing.
