hi all,

i've spotted a 1962 chev c-10 fleetside long box truck for sale. it needs a paint job, the wood in the bed could be replaced but might be able to refinish it, soild body, no visible rust or collision damage, the truck came from oklahoma, the original motor and transmission have been replaced by a more modern small block 305 or 350 not to sure, interior needs to be redone. the guy who has it put 19 or 20" custom aluminum wheels on it. the asking price is $7000 with out the rims or $8000 with the rims. is this truck worth the asking price? any thoughts are greatly appreciated. i know you may ahve seen my post about the 1949 1 1/2 ton. please do bare with me as i am a high school student who is trying to find a sweet looking reliable truck or project truck to be my daily driver to school and to my part time job. i will be asking alot of questions as i find trucks for sale, i'll be asking beause you guys know your stuff and wether a truck is worth it or not. thanks guys for your time.
