i saw a 1970 GMC p/u longbed 2wd with an original 402 big block for $800 at the local junkyard, should i pick it up and how much are these trucks worth....

Is it running? What's the rust situation?
If it's running and not a rust bucket, I would say 800 is a good price.

I paid $3k for my longbed. It's an a/c truck (not working) with 396, front disk brakes and a straight body. Passenger side rocker and pillar were rusted thru. Looked good 20/20 (20 ft away going 20 mph)

what yard is going to let you buy a complete truck?

pnp sells some of their stuff as wholes but rarely that cheap anymore.

don't forget the back registration fees.
If it is a complete truck, I'd consider it, but if its been piked over in the yard, it'll be expensive to put back together.

i`ll just say,with what little I know of it,that if it`s complete under the hood and pretty much all over it`s worth the money.

If its the same truck I looked at a few weeks ago for $999 then its a stretch at $800. The one I looked at was at the pick n pull yard on N. Antelope Rd. It has no options and is BEAT.
