any idea of fair asking $ on my 71 Burb - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

classic_chevy_fan · 02-18-2004, 08:25 PM

I restored this 71 burb 1/2 ton 2wd about 6 years ago. This original california truck has been a great ride, but it's time to move on to other projects in my pole barn. (mainly, my neglected 56 belair)

If anyone could give me some idea of a fair asking $, I would greatly appreciate it.

It has some slight modifications: late model gas door, removed all body emblems, new interior, carpet and head liner, new tires, 350 auto, tailgate lift gate, SOLID body. Very dependable and clean truck!

Thanks in advance for your knowledge!

You have already generated interest. Does it have a/c?

It has a front air under dash unit. Needs some work. No rear air

Any idea at all of what you want for her.....?

I was offered $7,000 last fall at a show before I considered selling her. I thought it seemed a little low, never tried to sell a '71 suburban before. Seems like a small market. It was appraised for $10,000.

yes it is a small market, and most of it is right here! It looks pretty nice to me, I like that paint job. Makes me think twice about graphics on my burb......

I have seen them go for any where from 8000.00 to 12000.00 I am not sure about the market in your area but honestly from just the little I have seen of it I would say somewhere in the area of 9500.00 just my opinion though
