What kind of luck do you guys have with selling on ebay? I can get a hold of a few good trucks and I'm thinking if I get them running they would pull in some bucks on Ebay, but is it worth fixing them up and getting them running? <br><br>-Here are my prospects:<br><br>19(66-77) - 1/2 cab Bronco w/ 6-cyl and 3 on the three. The body is rough but it has all original parts (ex: original jack) it doesn't run and I don't know what it needs to get running. It's been sitting for about 3 years and the guy who owns it bought it for 500.<br><br>1958 Chevy Apache - Step side w/ original engine (200+ c.i. I wasn't paying attention) 3 on the tree. It's all original and it supposedly runs. The guy was going to do a frame up restoration but like most, got half way and called it quits. It's the original owner, it's been in Tucson, AZ all it's life and only has surface rust. But here's the catch...it's all disassembled and needs a bit of work to make it presentable.<br><br>So there they are my two babies, I'm only sixteen and I don't know if my mom would like them sitting out front for to long. Would I make money if I were to put them on ebay?<br><br>-Thank you, Jake<br><br>P.S. I can pick the Chevy up for free, but the bronco won't be cheap<br>

I agree unless the trucks are in really good running order you can usually make more money on the parts. The drawback is that parting a truck out can take months of selling. It would definintly make you some money (it is how i am paying for my 74's current rebuild) if you have the time to do it. Good luck!! ;D

I agree. I wouldn't put any time into fixing them up. Part them out and you will make yourself more $$.
