this is a 71/72 short box project complete exept some interior and motor/trans, NICE BOX and new take off tailgate. pretty clean cab needs pass rocker and maybe more when getting into it he wants $2000.00 for it. whats it worth to you guys? for a guess thanks

kinda tough without pics but with no motor and trans no not worth it

thats too much money!

Seem's a little steep but up in minnesota that maybe a great price if it's not all ate up from rust... If you got a motor and tranny already and it's not rusty then not to bad a deal..

I have a big block/TH400 sitting in the shed looking for a home............

meathead95 · 12-24-2003, 11:23 PM

i would say its worth it. if you buy a rusty piece of sh!t for 1000 or less and then need a bed a NICE BOX like you stated will run you 500 to 1000 thats if you find one plus the time and effort to go half way across the country like i did to get it. i also have a nice tailgate that is a take off that i paid 400 for so you figure in my book a real nice bed and gate are worth a grand or more alone

Probably worth that or close, your region does make all the difference in pricing. Like Meathead95 said you start adding things up you get to asking price real quick.

In my area that would be a good deal in my opinion if the bed and gate are excellent.I would buy it myself at that price if the body only needs rockers.I have a good 350\350 combo that needs a home.

neonlarry · 12-25-2003, 05:34 PM

sounds like a good deal to me. Around here, a tailgate that nice could be $600, and $800-$1k for a perfect swb bed. so you would be getting the rest of the truck for like $600. lol
