The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area General Truck Talk 1966 C-10/ Whats it worth?

Hello I know that this will be a hard question to answer without seeing the truck but I was wondering if I could get some opinions on what this truck may be worth. I have located a 1966 C-10 with factory air, factory ps, and factory pb. It is a LWB with big back glass. Rear glass still has the "air conditioning" sticker on it. It has a 283 V8 with powerglide transmission. The motor is apart. The short block is still in the truck but the rest of the parts are there. The body is in primer but it is a factory black truck. The body is very straight with just a few minor dings. The front fenders have rust but other than that it is pretty well rust free. The interior is in good shape as far as the paint goes and it has a good wheel with the horn trim ring. The bezel for the a/c vent is missing though. I have tried to describe it thoroughly so I hope I can get some good idea as to what its worth because I was told to make an offer on it and don't want to pay to much but also don't want to insult the man either. Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

Not sure on the price, but I'm sure someone here will tell you and if you can at all, ABSOLUTELY GET IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Really not good at the price thing, but I'm guessing maybe a few grand?

Old Car Price "Guide". Number 5 condition $2180. #4 $3600. That is just a guide. The guy that wrote it doesn't buy them. It sounds like a good project but if you cant do most of the work yourself it,s easy to get upside down & flustered. You can get plenty of help & advise on this website though.

Couple of grand if everything is there as you said. Hoping you can do most of the work yourself, and you'll have something to be proud of. Two factors determine the price of everything, How bad you want it, and how bad he wants to sell it.

That's a rare truck, any idea if he knows how rare, that would determine if your going to insult him.

Make him shoot the first number. It gives you an idea whether he's in touch with reality or watches Barret/Jackson. I've gotten lucky several times with people willing to sell lower than what I'm willing to pay. I usually go into a haggle session knowing what my top dollar is and usually won't go over it,

I think the short bed, big windows are more rare, but maybe people just tell me that to make me feel better.

I would get it. Funny... Trucks! on TV today started a project making a 66 long bed into a short bed.

I am with Scott on this one.
