Hey folks. New to this particular forum. I was lookin' on craigs list/Fargo and saw a 61 Unibody for $650.Could it be worth the money. What do they usually go for in restorable shape? thanks!

Welcome to the forum!! $650 isn't a bad price it really depends on how much work needs to be done and how much rust you have to deal with, but at $650 I would offer $500 and if you get it for that price you can't go wrong. IMHO. I have seen them going for higher prices.

Yea'' unless it's ''rusting'' right off the frame, sounds like a good deal! but for that small
amount of ''Cash'' you will want to really look it over ''Good'! if it sounds too good to be
true, well you know the rest, lol...

I looked it up, I would go for it. Unibodies are really cool. Only downfall is that it is a long box.

If it isnt rusted to nothing, its worth it. Uni's are defiently gaining in popularity. Even if it is a longbed.
