How much should I ask?? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Due to some "circumstances" I find myself needing to sell the
"Farm Truck." There aren't really any trucks like this around here, so I don't know where to start. I know that if it were a similar condition 67-69 Camaro, it would bring 13-17k around here. But trucks are a wierd market. Around here is Maine, by the way.
Anyway, some of you are familiar with this truck, but here is a
quick description. 1969, 350 built to 380 horse/450ft lbs, saginaw 4 spd, hurst shifter, 3.07 w/lock-rite rear. 6 lug corvette rallies, drums all around, new urethane bushings everywhere, kyb gas shocks, body painted in pieces & assembled after, oak floor, strips painted body color. frame painted hammertone........
Any help would be great, I appreciate the help this board has given throughout this project.

Man I hate to see you sell that very sweet truck! If I had the extra $, I'd love to have that beauty! Prices are lower around here, so I won't bother with a figure. Again, hate to see you sell it.

Thanks for the help, for those who replied. It actually is not a bad thing if everything falls into place. I love this truck and sweated over it for 1-1/2 years. I have a chance to buy a '69 RS-SS 396 Camaro Convertable from a customer of mine. I simply don't have the garage space for 2 vehicles, and I couldn't afford both anyway. If I can't sell the truck for around 11-12k, I'll just keep it with no regrets at all. But I have dreamt my whole adult life of having that Camaro, and this is a rare chance for me to get one that needs only the interior finished. I'll try for a few weeks to sell, and if I cant, then back to plan A, which is to finish the Farm Truck off with Bucket seats from a hopefully understanding board member in N.H., and disc brakes from GMC Paul. Maybe go to 3.73 rear gears also. Anyway, thanks again.......J.R.
