I have decided to sell my restored1946 chevy. It's very close to Original except for seat and inside cab. Any suggestions on where to advertise it. It's not a truck that is perfect. It was done by me in my back yard and garage. It's not got a V8 it's an Original 216 restored. 3:55 rear end. It seems like the interest is in hot rods? I have a 1951 to work on now. My enjoyment is in the restoration work. Also the 46 is a bit small for a 6ft 1in guy. Just looking for thoughts on the best way to market it. Is there any people who buy restored versions of these trucks? Thanks for any thoughts on this.

Restored vehicles will always be in demand. Fortunately we live in an era where we no longer must rely on newspaper classifieds, Penny Saver papers, or Car Trader magazines and their inherent publishing lag times.
Thanks to dozens of online classified sites, selling special interest vehicles nationwide has never been easier.

Take advantage of every classified listing available, including your local Craigslist, the HAMB, Ebay, bingatrailer.com, and of course Stovebolt's Trucks For Sale section.

Then sit back, count your cash, and start searching those same sites for your NEXT classic car ;-)

I'd have to disagree with your sentiment. Hot rods are a dime a dozen, and most rods and resto-mods are a personal vision of one person. But an original truck will ALWAYS be more desireable than a hot rod, unless you are that one guy that a rod speaks to. And as someone else said on this site, they're only original once.

Most people really just want something trouble-free and sorted. Most of us have more money than time, and it sounds like you've done all the heavy lifting. I would think you'll have no trouble selling, given the myriad of ways to sell on-line these days.

Good luck!

GWWirth - recommend you spend some time researching online what similar trucks are being sold for. The statement that a truck is worth what someone is willing to pay for it remains true. I think you will be surprised the prices people are asking these days. Good luck!

I have had great luck with FaceBook Market Place. It was recommended and have as good a luck or better with then Craigslist. Have seen a number of antique cars on Craigslist. Know numerous people in the antique car world who regularly watch and buy off both of these.


So, politicians are “professionals” and business people “amateurs”?
Amateurs built the Ark... Professionals built the Titanic. How did that work out?
