I find the more original ( looking ) they are ,the better they sell. To me your truck has very practical upgrades and would make a great turnkey truck for someone.

That's a nice truck for sure.
My thoughts are that the most valuable parts of these trucks are their bodies. The mechanical upgrades bring maybe .25cents on the $1.00....unfortunately.
This is always good to know when putting money into the vehicle...because the drivetrain won't always pay you back much so always consider this when buying specialized race/H.Performance level parts.
I think this is because the power/uniqueness drive-mods are usually very owner specific.....and to sell a vehicle that emphasizes that..... you have to find someone similar to you and your tastes.
Its certainly possible....but you have to be patient and market the truck extensively not only based on the upgrades that you've put into it...but its 'other' side (original? or?) as well.
Again, tho'....that's a damn fine looking truck!
All Good

Thanks everyone for your input so far.

how much shipped to Michigan!

CST10 · 08-19-2015, 03:08 PM

Well right now it's not for sale, only trying to get a feel for the value in case I buy this other truck this weekend. By Sunday I'll have a better feel for the if it's for sale.

Even if I do get the other truck, I still might not sell it.

Anybody else got a feel for the value. General feel sounds like 12-14K as it is now.

**Boog** · 08-19-2015, 03:14 PM

? Is. What's it worth to you? 😉

CST10 · 08-19-2015, 04:35 PM

well i have a figure in my mind, im just trying to see if I'm way off on the low or high side of the range. Lol. Basically, I don't have a clue except what I've put into it in parts without labor.

truck 12k, the motor will add some value, not sure on how much though, so 14k range seems fair

Thanks for he reply, appreciate it.

Well, I looked at the truck. It's nice, solid with a good drivetrain. But it just didn't scream BUY ME.

So, looks like the herd isn't getting thinned out at this time.

Who knows what the future holds. The next one my steal my heart.

Thanks everyone for their input on ol Samson.

If I were looking for an old long bed, say if the truck was 85%, I'd feel I got a good deal @ 12,500.00.
