Hi all

Not sure if this thread is ok in this section

I am thinking about selling my 48 3100. The truck is stock and was resurrected to perfect running condition. Engine is original and original bore (babbets etc all there). The lionshare of body work has been done. Interior is done but needs the seat refinished. Dash and gauges are done.

I bought the truck 6 years ago and was going to be a hot rod. The engine was locked up and I was going to install a big block. Over that first winter when I started messing with it, I realized I could prob get it running as is. A little elbow grease, new rings, a hone, and a valve job...it now runs absolutly perfect. Not even a whisp of smoke on a cold start up.

I did not have the heart to butcher an original truck. I am not that guy to do that. I am a purist for all classic cars that can be saved

I have no idea what something like this is worth.

I see non-runners listed between 3500 and 8000 that need another 5000 just to get driveable again

here is a link to the work and how she sits now

Any thoughts on the worth...yes i know it is worth what someone is willing to pay for it but I need a starting point

also, if I had to pay a shop to do the work I did, I could not even fathom what it would have cost...north of 20k for sure ( i know the truck is not worth that tho)
