65 Long Step Worth the NEW price?

[67Mach1]

Here it is again, this time with his new price.

With title and an engine that is for all practical purposes blown.

Price $800.00

He asked me to make an offer I went to $400.00 and the $800.00 was his reply.


Now I am not a 4-5-6 guy but a 67-72 guy, however I realize this truck has some pretty cool aspectes to it. The Patina is the biggest asset and the 95%rust free cab and clip. (hood rust and one small area on LH rocker)

But is a C20 with 292 and 4 speed and no, I mean zero other options, worth up to 800 bucks w/out and engine?

if this was a C10, short bed I'd have jumped on it already. I guess what i'm asking is if I get this thing get it running what do I have? What is the market like for 65 C20's with I6 and 4 speeds?

So, I'm at 400 he is at 800 wonder if he will split the middle with me and go 600? Worth the try all he can say is no, right?
