Entertaining my options here... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Well 70rs/ss got me to thinking about selling this thing. He of course will have first dibs if he wants. But what do u guys think it is worth? 1971 Burb (RARE 3-door

) 350/350. Pretty low optioned ride.

It needs TLC and I will try to be as honest as possible. I have not had a lot of time to go through this thing, as my truck has been my focus. But the recent dealings w/the HOA have left me realizing that I probably don't have the funds to make this into the show ride I can visualize in my mind's eye.

You can see the good in the pics... Here's the bad.

Tranny is dead. Have a new one on the way, that I could sell w/it or not. 350 has a knock, but haven't checked into it. Have an air cleaner for it. It fires right up. Leaks nothing on the ground. Brake pedal goes to the floor, and then it stops. No shocks on the rear, and the DS shock mount pulled through the frame. I do have the old shocks from my truck that can go w/it. Thought the body was rust free, but after some more prodding, it will probably need kick panel bottoms and rockers (worse case scenario). It needs lots of the little odds and ends. Tried the lights yesterday and they didn't come on, probably something simple b/c IIRC they worked when I bought it. The body has two creases on the PS and one on the DS, don't know what they were driving up against... Tires in the rear are just about bald.

I know I'm being rough on this thing, but I dislike it when ppl try to act like something is better than it is. Just think of her as a 37 year old woman that hasn't had her "undercarriage" tended to in a while

If you need more pics or something specific, let me know. I tried to get EVERYTHING! I decided I'm too lazy to post the pics in this thread.... just go HERE

The body and interior looks pretty solid. I would say between $1500-$2000.

First......

I would second that. I would pay that kind of jack for that rig if I was looking for one.
