Given the fact that its only a half ton. I would think it would sell for only $200-$300. Try cleaning it up on the outside with a good degreaser then throw on a good coat of gloss black Krylon. that should help you fetch a few extra bucks and it will definately sell faster.

Re: 1969 gmc 12 bolt rear end

Good luck with it. Most folks are looking for the 3.07 posi rears with 5 lug axles. I had an open 3.73 that I thought go quick at $100 but never even had a bite. Ended up junking it to get it out of the way.

An open diff is a non-posi, one wheel wonder.
