You won't believe this C-list story...I've completed the collection
I finally was able to find a solid '68 swb and complete my collection of all 3 body styles. You won't believe this story...
Found this 68 on c-list this morning, listed as a 67. No pics on the ad, just a short note that said 67 swb selling cheap. No price, just a number so I was thinking "yeh right, cheap - I bet". Anyway, decided to call and when I asked how much and the guy said $100.00, I said "how much??? don't sell it, I'm leaving now." As you can see, it's got an A/C unmolested dash!!! It was minus motor, but does have the 350 tranny. |

I really can't believe this score. The guy could have easily got a lot more out of this truck. He said he just wanted it out of his way to make room for a Jeep wrangler he has coming in a couple weeks. I obviously had no problem helping him out with this one

Re: You won't believe this C-list story...I've completed the collection
you are going to have to pull that horseshoe out of your butt before you can #@!$.nice score!It would be worth $300 for scrape weight if it was a total rust bucket.I got $525 at the scrapeyard from a total rust bucket 72 that I pulled the tilt and motor out of a couple weeks back.Only had a little bit of junk in the bed maybe just enough to offset pulling the motor.

Re: You won't believe this C-list story...I've completed the collection
I have had to get used to those kind of deals. You find them when you look and you are FAST!!!! I am building a bracket race car to test my customer's carbs on and Have been buying parts left and right. Had a guy list a CL ad as "axles: Dana 30 front". Looked in the body of the ad and he was also getting rid of the rear. I was over there in a heartbeat. Picked myself up a Ford big bearing 9" with factory posi and 4.11 gears for $250. Granted, yours is stupid good (he was stupid and you did good) but there are other's out there.
