As you can see, I'm from the eastern plains of Colorado, where the air is dry, and trucks don't rust.
A friend of mine has a 1948 Chevy 2-ton truck. The truck was originally purchased by his father in-law new in 1948, and it has never sat outside, for any real period of time.
Its current state is, all original, 1-repaint several years ago, a 2-spd. rear, PTO, side dump grain bed, and comes with a set of custom hand built stock racks, 63K original miles on the body, suspension, etc.
Truck is immaculate. Nothing has ever been touched, except the engine. It currently has a 1957 235.
Here's my problem, I attend alot of farm auctions etc. Out here, (CO/NE)these trucks sell for anywhere from a couple-hundred up to maybe $1,500. However, I've never seen one this clean or straight. Most of the stuff you see out there at the auctions is very "well" used to say the least.
What would you guys think it's worth, or do you have any ideas on how one might find out it's true value?
Thanks for the help.
P.S. I can get photo's if anyone is interested in seeing it, or if it would help.
