Preparing to Part Storm Damaged One Owner 1968 GMC 2500 CST
Well folks, I've decided not to repair my storm damaged 1968 GMC 2500 CST bought new by my father and will soon begin to part it out because it appears to be worth considerably more in parts than complete. Hurricane Ike collapsed my barn onto the truck damaging the cab, hood and right fender. It still starts, runs, drives and the AC works as it should but proper repair would require a new AC cab and I have decided not to do this at my age.
I haven't decided whether to use eBay or the Parts for Sale forum here but in either case I need advise about parts value. I'll start with the easy stuff. Complete, original 327 4V engine. Running and fogged when removed 20 years ago. Stored inside. Needs rebuilt. 1980 350 4 bolt 4V engine from 3500 series. Complete, running with approximately 40K miles. Turbo 400 transmission. Completely rebuilt (not needed) about 2000 miles ago. Rebuild included everything including all bushings. No problems. 4.10 Dana 60 positraction rear axle. Complete drum to drum. Brakes and seals replaced and bearings packed about 2000 miles ago. No problems or leaks. Complete, undamaged buddy bucket seats in very good condition with or without rest of matching interior. Complete AC system including new (not rebuilt) Delco compressor and original compressor with good charge label, needing shaft seal. AC is currently properly charged with R-12 and works as it should. Complete, undamaged bed with tailgate. Never any rust. With or without bed liner. Documentation package including owners manual, warranty plate, copy of build sheet, service manual, parts manual, TH400 manual and original sales documentation. Also would like valuation advise for complete truck as is. I've attached a photo. Hopefully it works. That' all for now. Thanks for any and all advise. SDean |
