Old Yeller: What's it worth?

[Old Yeller 1970]

Well folks the time has come. I never thought I would do this but after 26 years and a truck load of memories it's time for Old Yeller to have a new home. I'm going to list the truck for sale but have too much invested, both materially and emotionally, to know what my truck's asking price ought to be. I've done so much work on it it's hard to remember it all at one setting. I do have a file full of documentation for everything I've done to it. The next owner will receive all this and should be able to know what every part is and where it came from.

Down below are a few pics I snapped the other day. I'll try to get a walk around video soon and post it here.

You can see a lot of the build documentation here.

Old Yeller is a longbed stepside. This truck is fast. Faster than any stock truck new or old.
Original 350 CID high nickel, high tin block bored .040 over
About 3000 miles since the rebuild
Original crank and connecting rods
Original oil pan
Original alternator
Original Timing Chain cover
Stock water pump

Everything else is new
Comp Cams Magnum 280 ground on 114 LSA
Pro Lightening Aluminum Heads 2.08/1.60 valves
9.5:1 compression
Keith Black Flat Top Hypereutectic Pistons
Hooker Competition Headers
2 1/2” dual exhaust with crossover
Aeroflow mufflers
Holly 750 Vacuum Secondaries Carb
Edelbrock Performer RPM Intake
1" phenolic open plane spacer
'76 Corvette Dual Snorkel breather with cold air/ram air induction
MSD 6AL Blaster with a 7000 RPM limiter chip, which I accidentally hit the other day doing a burn out. Usually shift right at 6,200 RPMs for maximum effect.
Holly high volume fuel pump
High volume oil pump
Aluminum Valve Covers
Aluminum Pulleys
2" aluminum radiator
Aluminum overflow canister
Electric fan (This was the Durango conversion discussed here several years ago and it works fabulously. Drove it in a hot July parade and absolutely never got over 190 degrees F. Meanwhile other classic cars are overheating left and right.)
Auburn limited slip differential
3.07:1 Rear End
Muncie SM 465 4-speed transmission. Granny gear makes starting easy with the big cam and slow parades are a snap too. Or take off in 2nd (like first in a normal car) and really kick butt.
10" 1970 Corvette lightened flywheel
Ram Clutch, Ram Pressure Plate and Ram throwout bearing (Absolutely never slips.)
High torque mini-starter
Progressive aluminum wheels
Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 255/75R15 tires. Still have lots of tread on them. I've only done a few burnouts. They hook far better than I dreamed they would. You can really launch this truck hard from a dead stop without spinning the tires, if you want to. Of course roasted tires are easy enough too.
Eibach Drop springs. Rides a little rougher than the stock springs but corners a lot better.
Front sway bar
Polyurethane cab mounts
High quality polyurethane engine mounts
Headlight switch operates the headlights through two relays, one for high beam and one for low beam

Paint
Original Harvest Gold color. Base coat/clear coat
Cab Pearl White
Interior Harvest Gold
Both rocker panels were replaced before painting
The exterior paint has a few chips which could easily be touched up. The front edge of the steps on the bed are chipped pretty good. That's pretty normal for this style truck.
There are a few scratches no thanks to my kids bicycle handle bars. Most will buff out. At least one is a little bit deep but could be touched up.
There are two little rust spots on the lower part of each door. Unfortunately, the truck had to sit outside after a garage fire (thankfully the truck was not in the garage at the time.) But rain got in the doors which is usual but West Texas dust had plugged the drain holes in the bottom of the doors. And the water sat there long enough to do some damage. After I opened the drains and let the water out the two spots (about the size of a dime) have not gotten any worse and they are barely noticeable.
I had the body shop weld the original fuel neck filler hole shut. It has a circle crack in the paint and slight chipping where the neck should be.
I also had the body shop smooth out the indention on the fender where the spare tire is. The original was done rather roughly at the factory. It has two bubbles in the paint where some rust is poking through.
No dents anywhere.
The interior paint is flawless

Exterior
NOS Chevrolet Front grill
Original Inner Grill
Reproduction tail gate modified with latches and chains in bed
Original steel bumper modified to accept a receiver hitch
LED taillights
Under bed 20 gallon poly fuel tank.
1/8" steel diamond plate bed with Herculiner. The liner is a little thin and either needs a second coat or it could probably stripped off without too much fuss, and the bed painted.

Interior
Dash lights have been replaced with LEDs
New dash pad, arm rests
Original sun visors
Cloth seat
Grant steering wheel
Tachometer
Everything else is mostly stock
The window regulator on the driver side could be replaced but does work with some effort.
The fuel gauge works but the fuel sender does not and needs to be replaced.
The rubber shifter boot needs to be replaced

I still have many of the original parts that go with the truck if wanted.
original 441 heads
original valve covers
original taillights and brackets
spare drivers side and passenger side doors
spare hood
spare door parts and vent window parts

You must have a number in your head. What are you thinking?

I thought I'd start off asking $15,000.
