Value of 1937 ford 1.5 ton truck

First I will have pics up tomorrow. I pick up milk from dairy farms so I found out one of my farmers collects international trucks but has a 1937 Ford 1.5 ton truck with not rust Has no bed on it though. Came from Minnesota. Second owner now. Run and stops. He just loves internationals and has a 1912 and 1914 plus every our international truck made I think. He has no interest in the ford and I love it. What should I take pics of to help determine the value?

Thanks for your help!
Kevin

I am loading mine onto a trailer this afternoon for delivery to a new owner tomorrow. No rust, runs well and stops. Much like yours. Homemade wood flatbed. Sold it for 4500.00. Sold quickly on Seattle Craigslist. Last month was listed for 6000.00 lots of callers, no buyers. I am working on a '47 one ton panel truck and needed the room and the $ and I already have 4 other flatbeds here. I think the truck would not be worth as much in your area because it's easier to find there.

I bought a complete 37 1 1/2 ton last year for $1000. It had the Ford script bed but had sat many years and the engine was stuck. It was a really straight truck though.

But you don't count.... You also bought a one ton panel for 500 bucks!

HoHo, ok. I just have to represent the cheap skate picker end of the spectrum.

Not familiar with Orcas but quite familiar with Whidbey and it is a haven for old artsy-fartsy Kaliforney types.

We get them here in droves too. My '37 1 1/2 ton sold to a hard working building contractor down in the Seattle area. I suppose he's just about as artsy as me because he doesn't intend to paint it either.....Or could it be we're both to lazy to do so? Nah. Ok, back to the original poster it's worth between 1000.000 and 4500.00. I'd have to know what's customary in your area to give a realistic guess.
