1966 Shortbed stepside here. Very easy seller in Georgia. I've been into these bodystyles for quite a few years and have noticed that the longbed stepsides are probably the least desirable of all the variations, in terms of resto- or rod-storation. Seems that the shortbeds (step and fleetside) are equally valuable, with the true "Custom" cabs bringing the most cash. Longbed fleetside would be next and long step last.
Buy the truck if you would just like to have an old truck to tinker with and get your "feet wet" with restoration. That torsion bar front suspension can be very expensive to rebuild, compared to the later '63-66 coil springs. Just don't look for buyers breaking the door down to buy later on. And you won't get as much money as a shortbed either style.
