71 swb truck I like on CL Phoenix..too high?? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

HeavyD · 02-19-2012, 03:58 PM

Hey there. I am so frustrated with my slime truck i have been keeping an eye out for another, and ran across this one in the exact colors I like. It seems high to me, but maybe I am out of touch? Guys care to comment on this one, and does anyone know this truck?

Way to High.

Wrenchbender Ret · 02-19-2012, 04:55 PM

Seems to high to me. It could have possibilities though. Maybe one of the guys from the website that is in that area could go look at it for you. If its what you want make an offer.

MVHandy · 02-19-2012, 05:08 PM

Way too high in my opinion, keep looking and be patient. That would be a fair deal at half the price.

**jocko** · 02-19-2012, 05:12 PM

Yep, that's too high for me too. Agree, could be a good starting point, but yhou'd have too much in it before you start. It's a C10, not a Deluxe, or Cheyenne or Super that needs a little (ok, a lot) of work. I'd pass and look further.

**lolife99** · 02-19-2012, 05:18 PM

Rust free original sheetmetal is the only thing that would make this truck worth the money.
Is it truely rust free?

Anymore,... That's the only thing I look for.
Everything else can be duplicated.

danw210 · 02-19-2012, 05:26 PM

I saw this one while looking and quickly moved on. Way too high!

cardreams · 02-19-2012, 05:37 PM

way to high for sure

YBNORML · 02-19-2012, 05:39 PM

I agree, way too high. By the time you get it home you would be into it for almost $10,000. There are lots of better deals out there.

Boogie_Man · 02-19-2012, 05:50 PM

+7 way too high. Non air or ps too.... I'd be leary of this one.

HeavyD · 02-19-2012, 06:17 PM

Thanks for the responses all. No air was actually one of the thing i wanted, and have been discovering that southern trucks (naturally) almost always are a/c equipped. Still, it does seem high, and this is at least the second time in a year I have seen this truck for sale..most likely more times than that. So what would anyone guess it would be worth?

71meangreenc10 · 02-19-2012, 06:18 PM

Too high.....

**invicta455** · 02-19-2012, 06:35 PM

yea to much for the truck

**Already Gone** · 02-19-2012, 08:58 PM

That is too high Dalton.. Do you want a SWB?

black_sheep454 · 02-19-2012, 09:30 PM

Like everyone else said, too high.

dubds10 · 02-19-2012, 10:37 PM

$3gs for it would be reasonable....that's way too high of a price for it as is though.

HeavyD · 02-19-2012, 11:58 PM

Hi Greg. I have had lwb trucks all my life but now I would like a short fleet to keep.

Dalton I sent an email to your personal address.

BB72CHEVKT · 02-20-2012, 03:26 PM

I bet there is more rust if the rockers have been replaced.

cpetersen · 02-20-2012, 09:33 PM

Everybody thinks they have gold out here. They all think they are at the Jackson.

**jocko** · 02-20-2012, 09:47 PM

at least you can clearly tell what condition the seat foam is in.

rsavage · 02-21-2012, 12:32 AM

If it is a genuine short fleet V8 truck that is solid and the bed isn't beat to death, I think it would be worth $4500 -5000. You would have at least 15 in it to restore it doing most of the work yourself, but the truck would be worth it in the end.
