i know a guy that has a gold 68 just sitting without a motor how much would it be worth if i was to get it and put it back on the road

68 Suburban · 01-16-2003, 04:45 PM

make sure it is just not gold. it should be gold and ivory with a 551 paint code in the glove box. It also should have gold and parchment interior.

I paid $500 like this ( different wheels ) . It had a running big block in it though.

mikep, how could you get taken to the cleaners like that! There really is a sucker born every minute....

A little more info would help:
Long bed or short?
A/C or Power options?
Originally a v/8 or 6?
1/2 ton or 3/4?
Buckets Or Bench?
How much rust?

Pics would help to determine overall condition?
The codes that 68 suburban mentioned make a 50th.
There were Gold and Saddle colored trucks out there also.

Have fun

Here is what the int should look like. this one has the CST package which included buckets, but the same treatment went on benches too. Ignore the black pillow on the seat...Jason shoulda moved it before taking the pic.

And here is a pic of one in WA ... the bench seat version.
