Anyone know if a 1962 chevy 1/2 ton longbox stepside is a rare item,,,if it is,,how rare and what would the aproximate value be,,,( no, its not for sale ) Just trying to decide on rodding it or a restoration....Just want to know what i have before i go and cut it up. It is all original,other than a bad rattle can paint job. 235 6,,about 60000 original miles, normal rust, bottoms of fenders and corners of front fenders,,all easily repaired.. floor is completelty rust free!!Even has bias ply tube type tires from around 1970 or so in the front. Still in good shape. Truck was bought as a farm truck, then the owner died and it was parked in a barn for about 20 years. It was then sold to a high school kid who did the usual wear and tear. At least he didnt try to work on it! still original!!
