Re: WIW? - '79 K30 Dually Dump

When I only read the description I thought $4,000. When I saw the pictures I thought $2,500.
Here are my reasons:
No heater, in a plow truck??
Interior looks very shabby.
Those two things will really detract from potential buyers. The good thing for you is they are easy fixes.

Put your blue door panels on it. Buy a black rubber mat for the floor and put it in. Get your heater working. Then I would ask $4,000 and see where it goes.

The Heater works - there is no A/C core in the truck that is what that silly-putty stuff is on the heater box. Plowing season is pretty much over now.

Re: WIW? - '79 K30 Dually Dump

I agree with 71swb4x4. Fix up the interior with matching door panels and a floor mat. You do have a lot of positives. The truck is fairly straight, a new motor and an engine compartment that is clean, not an oil covered mess, and good tires. Most people will see that as signs that the truck was taken care of, not hammered to S**t.
Good luck if you choose to sell it.
