Seems like 5 years ago the average was $5000 for a running and driving truck that had a moderate amount of repairable rust. These trucks still needed TLC, but could get on the road for a short trip without killing you. Today, it seems like the same truck would be in the $8500-10,000 range. I just bought a 51 running and driving that is close to road worthy for $4200. They are still out there...you just have to be patient and network around. Good luck in your search.
