Value check on 2 trucks
 

Just checking values on these 2, trying to work out a trade with a guy.

#1-1970 Chevy C10, has been lifted, crate 350 with under 10k miles, need to know what else to ask, but exterior looks good

#2-1997 C3500 crew cab, 8x10 flat bed, vortec 7400, 230k miles, 2 bench seats, fabric front, pleather rear bench. Paint isnt bad but some good sized areas it's chipped off and a bit of rust up top.

Will try to get pics up tomorrow if needed, justlooking for a rough number, ask any questions and i'll try to answer

Hard to put a value on a vehicle you can't see.

If I had to ball park it.
1970 could be worth anywhere from 700 to $8000 depending on the condition of the drive train and the body.

1997 could be $1500 to $7500

Just some paint issues, no real dents i can think of, bed looks like a project, not perfectly level but good. Interior is good, no tears or anything, cloth front and plastic rear, oth benches. Plastic floor liner, full covering. Heat doesnt work but no other mechanical issues, battery is only a couple months old, one speaker has a little rattle if the bass is up. Can answer any other questions, we haven't been able to sell it at 3900 on craigslist.

Can add more pics later, we got the decal removed since that pic

Will try to get some pics from the other guy, here's a link to his listing

1970 Chevy c10 lifted

Just wish we had the money to fix up our '85 c10, got some bigger tires than stock, new grill, swapped to a 350, bored it out some, flat heads, headers, some high flow exhaust, and a holly 4-barrel

Well the other guy isnt interested any more, but would still like to know what you think the 3500 is worth, here's a link to my new add since i'd rather not have to ry to upload those anywhere and link them here after it took like 30 mins to do that (internet is acting up)

I'm not familiar with the Ga lingo What does "Granny lo tranny" mean?

My guess was right but didnt know myself, looked it up

What is a granny low transmission? | ChaCha

Super low gearing for pure power in first gear.

Are you comparing it to other things cuz my listing doesn't say that? BTW i dont know too much about trucks and vehicles, more than the average person i guess but still not much and never worked on anything (yet) cuz i'm 16 (and yes i drove this to highschool daily for a few months)

This forum isnt very active. Just want a rough number with a few hundred window of accuracy. And i still wouldnt mind something rough for that 70 cuz he finally got the pics i sent him a few days ago and seems a little interested again

Still would like to know if what I'm asking is a decent number for this truck

1997 Chevy C3500 Flatbed with Crewcab, 454/7.4L Gas, open to TRADE

I have more pics i can email, only thing not on the listing is the arm rest thing n the door broke off

I don't want to discourage you or anything like that... but your question is subject to opinion.
To get a TRUE value on your truck... Take it to a dealer.. preferably a dealer familiar with Chev trucks or a Chev or GM dealer.

OR .. Do a search on Auto Trader .com for your truck to do a price comparison.

Asking for a value on social forums with only get you opinions.
if you want an opinion? Run it at that price for a couple of weeks to see if you get an bights. My opinion is it is a little high.. But you know, everything has a buyer.

I had the price based on what the kbb is for the regular bed, autotrader only had a 96 f350 regular cab with a 7.3 powerstroke for 3950. There's actually a work truck dealer in town but dont think they do used or anything and i doubt a normal dealer here will give much (although i went to school with the daughter of the owner of 2 dealerships)

Sounds like you did some good research. Based on that info, I think you priced it pretty fairly and gave yourself a little wiggle room.Cause who ever buys it is probably going to want you to drop the price a bit... just so they think they are getting a deal.
The ol car salesman saying "Always make them think they are getting the deal"

Grandad doesnt want to go below $3700, but when we got it almost a year ago i think now, we actually paid $2700 (and the guy we got it from gotmit to sell at an industrial auction for 2600), then we swapped the battery and have had it insured the whole time so he wants to get that money back too, just doesnt seem to be much demand for them right now. I need to talk to him, i thinki could get him to take $3500, maybe $3400, need to call a guy who asked about it a few days ago to see if he's still interested, he just wanted a lower number since he's driving from south carolina to the middle of Ga.! But he said he contacted a number of people so he might'a found something a bit cheaper

Talked to him, he's a little stingy so i aint tellin him i dropped the asking price to 3600, but he said he'll take 3200 to get rid of it, and i get to use what i need to fix up our 85 c10 which has been suped up with a 350, bored out, flat heads, headers, new cam, holly 4-barrel, true dual with hush thrush or something (that's what dad said), and a new trans, plus he upped the rims to 16s and got some bigger tires, and a grill without the emblem, so it looks good
