Is $100 fair for this cab, also comes with new cab corners? And how much are used fenders going for?

**old Rusty C10** · 03-10-2012, 08:07 PM

how are the floor pans and the frame perches? if they are good and the rockers and corners are not bad inside and out its not too bad a deal fenders were going for about $100 each

Floors are good, and it comes with new cab corners to be installed. Needs rocker work but nothing major.

Someone really got pissed at that steering wheel.....

Car'n'Guitars · 03-10-2012, 08:23 PM

Ha.. no it was a old mudtruck.

Car'n'Guitars · 03-10-2012, 10:42 PM

Does anyone know how much paint is required to paint a cab?

russgt · 03-10-2012, 11:02 PM

Does it come with a title?

Car'n'Guitars · 03-11-2012, 09:27 AM

Yeah it comes with a title.

Honestly, you are saving him from having to haul that POS off. Nothing more. I don't know how much it weighs but I would think whatever the cab corners are worth + $30 would be about right if you really must have it. I would personally spend more and get a cab that doesn't need rust repair.

Keep in mind I am in northern Indiana you don't find cabs that don't cost $500 and needs rust repair. Plus what are you seeing that I'm not? I don't really see any rust on this cab that would be a big problem.

thepenguin99 · 03-11-2012, 07:00 PM

I guess it is the area, which I wasn't thinking about. Around here you can find 80s cabs with zero rust. I had a friend actually cut the cab corners out of a rust free regular cab to go into a crew because he couldn't sell it. To me, this is work I would expect to do to a 70s cab.

There is no mat covering. It in a new floor that someone screwed in instead of welding so I will get that welded in and the holes fixed.

mineralgrey01gt · 03-12-2012, 09:35 AM

Makes me think I sold my cab for way too cheap. I sold mine for $50 with not one spot of rust on it, no dents, dimples, etc. I knew I should have asked more

Car'n'Guitars · 03-14-2012, 06:42 PM

Hopefully Friday I will be going to get the cab and as soon as I do I will get more pictures and information about it.

grayharville · 03-14-2012, 11:23 PM

Ive got one in my back yard thats about to go to the crusher, no rust in the corners, just the inner rockers.

No way I would ever mess with that cab, but hey, if thats somethin you wanna tackle, then have at it!

we usually get 60-80$ on rust free dent free oem fenders.

Would love to but your many states away. A guy guy here that I'm going to get the cab from has a graveyard of these trucks and told me he would sell me fenders with the inner wheel well for $50. And they are in almost perfect condition.

notyo_cheez · 03-16-2012, 04:28 PM

A yard AZ just quoted me $800 for a rust-free shell with shipping. Another one in El Paso for $175 and no shipping quoted. Want it but can't get it.

Yeah there is a lot of things for these truck that I want and can't get.

Car'n'Guitars · 03-17-2012, 05:56 PM

Well I didn't go get the cab as planned, but talked to the guy again and he told me he would also sell me a nice bed for $100 also. Now I need to find someone with a trailer and a truck.

willett · 03-17-2012, 08:27 PM
