I have this 69 swb 4x4 that I am going to sell to help pay for another project that i will be starting in a couple of weeks, i was asking 3600.00 for it because it is a factory 4x4 swb rare i thought but from the lack of response it must be over priced, i have a close offer but before i take it i would love to hear from some of you guys as to what you think it is worth. it has a later model 350 with center bolt heads 350 turbo trans p/s p/b disc brakes tilt wheel sony two knob (working) usual rust but kinda light for a 4x4 in this area anyway let me know what you think dont hold anything back thanks in advance Mike

That's not a bad looking truck. But timing is everything. From my limited experience the best time to sell a 4x4 is right before hunting season, especially in our part of the world. Now would be the time to sell a boat.

I was thinking more like $2500 range if I was buying. Don't take it as an insult please.

I agree with the 2500ish.

A SWB 4x4 is very desireable but the rust and body condition is a negative that impacts the value. Running condition and options help but most buyers are looking at the rust--bed fenders, cab corners, floor, windshield frame, etc. It's a lot easier to handle mechanical problems then body work problems so consider this in your decision re. price. $2500. seems reasonable while $3,500. may be on the high side.
