68 LS1 stepper

OK, I'm starting to think it's time to let the truck go. I have a wife and two sons(10 & 7), and with all the current seat belt laws and such, it's just not feasible to do much as a family with a truck. If I decide to sell, I'll get something more "family oriented". Most likely a mid sized muscle car, but I may entertain getting a 2wd Blazer.

I want some honest opinions on what you guys think my truck may bring.

Here's some basics

68 Stepside
-All sheetmetal is original except hood, headgate and right front fender. Tailgate is NOS.
-Paint and bodywork was all completed in August 2006 and garage kept since.
-69 CST full foam bench seat with custom foam and high quality Rave brand vinyl material for the seat cover, kick panel speakers, door pull/armrests, and dash pad. Lecarra steering wheel. Ididit auto trans column. Custom Autosound radio with 6.5" kickpanel speakers and Pioneer 6x9 speakers custom mounted in cab corners, and a custom panel behind seat where fuel tank used to be.
-Docs Kustoms aluminum fuel tank.
-Rebel Wire wiring harness
-lowered 4.5/5.75 using all ECE parts and a custom made .75" drop block.
-Carbed and cammed LS1/700r4/4.11 gears with Eaton LSD.
-Custom 2.5" exhaust with ceramic coated stainless headers, x-pipe and Magnaflow mufflers.
-17" American Racing Torque Thrust II wheels and Hankook Ventus ST tires(still plenty of tread left)

The truck is very reliable. I just competed the 2013 Power Tour(over 2600 mile trip in total) with the only issue being some backed out header bolts.
