how much should a ’55 ford pick up be worth?
Details-
*the good
newer 302 engine
automatic forward tilting hood
has a/c
auto door locks and windows
all glass is perfect
no frame rust
power steering
*the bad
it will need a decent amount of body work…
the paint is chipped allover, and in many places where its chipped off on the bed, the metal that can be seen looks rusty, so im not sure if he’s trying to cover up some other problems…
the interior also lacks. they put it some VERY ugly seats that look like the older volvo seats or something, there is no carpet, just a rubber floor mat, and it doesnt have a headliner.
the guy that is selling it is asking 15000 but i think that is far too much considering all the work that it will need, and the fact that he might have just painted over everything to cover up some of the problems with the body.
what do you think it’s worth?

15,000? the dudes smoking something….. no way it’s worth that in that rough condition. does it have a newer sub frame welded in for better suspension and handling? or did they just drop in a v8 and put on the titl front end? if it has a newer front subframe modifacation And it safely driveable on the street in it’s present condition. I would think 5 or 6 grand would be on the high side. by the time you pay someone to do the interior and paint correctly you’ll have another 5 or six thousand in it over purchase price and then you might have a 15,000 dollar hot rod
