What's my 68 swb worth?

OK, I hate to do this but with a baby on the way I really need to sell my truck. Here's the details: 1968 shortbed, very nice corvette electron blue paint using dupont base/clear coat, factory ac, ps, pb, tach dash, buckets. Brand new: door, window and windshield seals, bumpers, door panels, arm rests, dash pad, steering wheel, carpet, seats recovered... I'm sure there's more but I can't think right now. The motor is a 327 with new Edelbrock 650 carb, new HEI, new dual exhaust from headers back. Trans is a 350. The only thing keeping this from being a really really nice truck is some detail work in the enging bay. I'm thinking about asking $7,500, what do you guys think?

I appreciate your kind replies. The side marker lights were shaved, I think it gives it a cleaner look. Let me know if anybody is in the market for a nice swb, I'd rather sell to somebody on this board than go the Ebay route.

WOW. That is one of the cleanest trucks I have seen. What color is that by the way?

Thanks, Larry.

dude dont sell it! can't you sell somethin' else? how 'bout the wifes car?!? can't remember the last time i seen a 68 w/ factory air set-up...... if you go ahead and sell it i would ask $10k and not a penny less....detailing an engine bay is no big thing ...just some elbow grease,and attention to detail. very,very nice truck!

Man it's worthless. I'll give you $200.00 bucks to haul it to the junkyard for you.
