Whats this truck worth

[Joe Cool]

I dont have any pictures but have a description

I have a 27,000 one owner truck that belonged to my father inlaw
Its a 2500 3/4 ton with auxilery tanks
I had to put in one new tank and rebuild the carb.
It has new tires
The dash pad is cracked and the rubber around the windows is cracked
The truck is a florida truck and the bottom is spotless and no rust with original paint.
Its ugly green in fair........too good to show the famous Patina BS

I want to sell this truck............now

Whats it is really worth.........the miles are accurate and so is the description..

Seems like these trucks may be worth more in some areas than others. I'm assuming a 2wd truck, work truck package. Maybe $3500 +/-$500.

Up here, it would be worth good money for the rust free body, but 2wd would hurt you. A rust free 4wd would go for close to $10K depending on the buyer.

Just a guess though, as pics and more details would help. Some people's ideas of "clean" and "runs well" are vastly different from others. With only 27K miles this could be a real creampuff.

How are you verifying the odometer has not rolled around once or twice or three times?

I know the truck.........the same man had it since new and died at 97

Its spotless

Without photos and only a description that sounds like a middle of the road truck, I don't see more than $1500. It would help if you could verify the miles and had pictures, but then again, old is old. Age sometimes is harder on something that just sits than something that is actually used.

There are dozens of 3/4 trucks in this area that sound just like you described. What they leave out is that it spent its life spreading feed and hay and living in a barn with the cats and mice. The undercarriage is spotless, because.... well go look at some old farm trucks and tractors that spend a lot of time driving through the pasture, you'll see. Driving around in that tall grass and weeds, especially on a damp morning, does wonders for cleaning up underneath.

3k to 5k ball park on the price,Low mileage is nice but its hard to prove on something older even with being a one owner.Its a long bed 2wd the most common truck made this body style.Most won't spend big money on a truck unless its a short bed or a rare trim level.

It really does not matter what I or anyone else thinks it worth. The ONLY person that matters to is you and the buyer. I can tell you no matter what number anyone gives you, the buyer WILL ALWAYS try to get a better price for themselves. So come up with a number YOU want to get for the truck and sell it!!!!
