I want to keep my eyes open for 47-54 chevy trucks. Planning on getting one after I'm married in April. I scour ebay and craigslist but they are either totally rotted out where I'm basically rebuilding with aftermarket sheet metal or they want 10 grand for a project. Am I looking in the wrong places or are these prices accurate? I don't need a driving truck, it doesn't even need to have an engine or transmission since I plan to rebuild it with modern tech. I just want the body to be I'm decent shape. What can I expect to pay for something like that? In southwest of Chicago in illinois but I wouldn't mind traveling or even paying shipping for a solid truck.
