Here's some more information that should help you. Unfinished trucks sell between $2500 - $10,000 depending on originality, completion, and condition. Without more information, we won't be able to pin point the value. We will need model, pictures, mechanical information and other info.

1956 RE-DO This should give you an idea of what they looked like new. This one has a six in it. Not completely original, but a nice example.

Their all rare in GB. To me the 55 is one of the best looking trucks Chevy ever made. To have the V8 and the auto tranny in it is a plus.
If $ is not a deal breaker, buy it.

looks like i may buy it but it still needs some cash ,chucking, at it .. I.E all new glass (the screen has real bullet hole,s)

ther, no rot in it ( its ex arisona desert) only had 2 repair patch,s in lower cab corners

but virtually no wiring loom left and could also do with a left rear fender allthough it may repair
rest of cab would sand down or blast then fettle and paint

also in time i,ll be looking for some ,west coast style,, mirrors
