Should I get it running before selling?
Hi guys. I have a 1971 Suburban that I will be selling in the near future. It hasn't run since 2008 because of a gas tank leak which I recently fixed (replaced the tank and all the rubber lines), but it needs new plug wires and needs to be re-timed because I pulled the distributor to prime the oil pump. Do you guys think it's worth trying to get it running before selling, or selling it as-is? It's pretty mechanically sound - it has a GM Goodwrench 350 and a rebuilt TH350, both with only about 35k on them. Will probably need brake work, which I wouldn't do myself. It does need some body work (passenger rockers, front of passenger quarter panel). I have the patch panels but I'm not going to patch the metal myself. I could cut the old metal out and coat the inside rockers with POR-15, but that's as far as I see myself going. Thanks for your thoughts! -Jamie
