Trucks worth?
Ok, so today I looked at that Olds that I said I might consider buying, and I think it may be an option, so the next step in this for me would be to find what you guys think my truck is worth. some information: 68 K10 LWB frame transmission/suspension, '73 350 engine(runs well, uses oil), 67 cab and front end, rust issues: drivers side rocker is pretty well gone, floor panel is solid but may be fiberglass(never really investigated on this) various surface rust/paint bubbles, bed floor is pretty rusty(maybe a dozen small holes). new fluids all around except radiator, new goodyear wrangler duratrac 31/10.5/r15 tires with less than 500 miles, new brakes all around except drums, new alternator and battery, Fixed some shotty wiring under the hood, wiring under the dash is a decent rats nest, but with some searching you can find the wire you are looking for, manual steering(alot of play in gearbox, needs replacing), manual brakes, 4 speed manual, 4.11 gears, and finally, it needs a new rear wiring harness, there was a ground short in the sockets.

Re: Trucks worth
I would guess if I were to see this in my area with the common problems associated with these trucks I'd say about $2500-3000 give or take

Re: Trucks worth
Alright, Thanks for your input, although it has been a very fun truck I found an olds 442 convertible for sale, and since my father has a 442 convertible, I thought it would be cool to own two almost matching cars.

Re: Trucks worth
use the craigslist search: zoomthelist.com or searchtempest.com to locate like trucks to help figure out value.

Re: Trucks worth
that would work too, but the main reason why I was asking you guys is since it really is a unique truck, since it is a moshpit of parts and since you all know these trucks the best (some craigslist posters have no idea what they should go for) you would be the best place to find a reasonable price, so if anyone is in need of a truck, hint hint, one might be up for sale soon!
