Price for a '69 C-10 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

bluec10 · 02-12-2004, 03:53 PM

My father, who has never shown ANY interest in classic trucks, recently gave me a call about a 1969 C-10 that is for sale close to where he lives.

From his description, the truck is a base model with a 250 and a three speed. The truck has no rust and has 44000 original miles. The owner was an 85 year old retired farmer who recently passed away. It has hardly been used for the last 10 years.

Any ideas about what it's worth?

I would say anywhere from 5 to 10k USD depending on if it's a SWB or a LWB.

Thanks for the reply - I think the truck is a LWB.

What would that be in Canadian dollars..?

I would say somewhere between $2000 and $4000, depending on how "rust free" it is.

Do you know what color it is and could it be a GMC maybe? I know of a minty one out in the country. No rust, straight as an arrow, original right down to the hubcaps. I have some pictures of it but cant tell what year it is and it belonged to an 80 something year old guy as well.

Blue Beard - add about 25% to the US amount an your're in the ball park - if that's what your're asking. If you're asking a market question the demand for a truck like this would probably be greater in the US, although more and more guys are working on trucks like this in my part of Canada.

Gee_Em do you think it's the same one? I don't know what colour it is, but realistically how many trucks like this does a guy find around the Slurpee capital of the universe?

I had better quality pics of it but I dont know what happened to them.

wow that thing is clean!

It would have been a great coincidence GeeEm, but it isn't the same truck. Looks really clean though.
