Current market value

[SWFLABRONCO]

I've about got mine finished and thinking of selling to fund other projects. Just wondering what kind of ball park value I could realistically expect. I'll post it in the classifieds but I don't want to be out in left field with the price. Any input would help.

1970 U15 (half cab from a late 60's model)
Underwent media blasting and frame off resto.
All rusted metal replaced
Dana 44 with front disks
9" with drums
4.11 gears
West Texas Offroad rebuilt quick ratio steering box
Dana 20 (rebuilt)
4r70w (rebuilt)with opti-shift controller
Explorer (rebuilt) 5.0 EFI with GT40 heads, not p style
E303 cam
24lb inject0rs
heddman long tubes into dyno max super turbos
2005 Ford Ranger Buckets
New MT classic lock wheels (15x10)
New 33 x 12.5 Good Year MTR's

I've put about 200 miles on the truck to get the kinks out and everything works great. It still needs carpet and I need to reinstall the wipers, windows and door panels. The paint is new but it needs some work. We started off painting the engine bay and door jambs in order to get the tub back on the chassis but decided to keep on going since we had the paint. I should have left it to a professional. Anyway, it is 99% done just pondering it's sale to fund some other things I have going.

Sounds nice. Pictures?

Does sound very nice but pictures are a must. I see some in your gallery of the rebuild, looks like it was done well.

Fit and finish will determine the value. If its show quality you're probably in the $20,000 range. If its driver quality, probably closer to $15,000.

But honestly, the way eBay has been lately that could swing $3,000 or more based on which way the wind blows....

Ball park without pics $10,000 to $16,000. If it is show quality around $20,000.

Sounds more like a $6-8K truck to me. but hey if you have guys willing to pay $10-15K then sell it to them. Basically the market is whatever you actually sell it for. If your not in a hurry to sell keep the price high and see if anyone bites if you need to move it then a lower price will do the trick.

I like to watch the completed listings on E-Bay. There you can see what is actually selling. Lot of nice rigs priced around how much was put into them, but very few sell. Junkers and bone stock survivors seem to sell reasonably well. Around here stuff I wouldn't even haul home for free are bringing $1500 and up. Our boy's from Iraq coming home are buying a few with the money they've saved up.

I"ll try to get some recent pics up soon. My hard drive crashed on my desktop so I need to take some new ones. The truck isnt show quality but it's just really nice and built well. Sounds like the figure I had in my head is about right based on the posts and that is probably where I'll go with it. Just takes the right buyer I guess.

Agree, but LOTS, I mean LOTS of sales are listed on ebay but not consummated there (i.e. actual transaction takes place direct seller-buyer) so you see a lot of cancelled auctions and the ones that close on ebay are not always representative of the population.

The numbers I posted were its value from what info he gave, but as others have said just because the truck is worth $16,000 dosent mean he will get it. It is just a starting point.

i couldnt get 10k for mine, and there are quite a few around here for 3k-5k that are drivable, they need work but could be drove the way they are
