Valuation questions for a 77 Stepside
found a pretty clean/straight, little rust stepside with 133k miles...
doesn't smoke, small leak from valve covers
4x4, new interior, 4" lift, 33" tires
He is including a lot of parts with it, another engine, transfer case, mirrors, 31" tires, etc
I really have no clue on this truck, opinions are encouraged
I have a 96 Honda Accord I am think on trading him straight up...have I gone mad?
thanks in advance

well that's the thing...the accord is CLEAN...CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN...but...it's not a truck...I love trucks...did you see what I did to my last one?
I think my Honda is worth about $3500 bucks...but...I'm not *too* worried about loosing a couple hundred dollars.....
so I guess the question is....is the ford worth $3500....
what other dent could I get for $3500?
4x4 stepside....I haven't seen too many of these running the roads

Well, if it helps, IMO and I'm not alone in having it, a shortbed Ford 4x4 dentside is close to the pinnacle of truck manufacturing and to be a stepside pushs it over the top, lol. dump the ricer and trade up to some Detroit Iron from the end of the golden age. Do I sound biased here? 
Really though, I guess it depends on what you do with the Accord and what you will do with the Ford but seriously, down south at least, the shortbed 4x4 is king and always commands a premium. If its in good shape Id say its worth $3500

i am going to pass on this one. timing is off for me.
but anyone in Central Illinois, here is your chance:
1977 Ford F-150 4x4
So does anyone else in IL have a lead for a dent for sale?

IMO...in today's economy, you can get a whoooole lotta truck for $3500. I've been seeing trucks that woulda sold for $5-6500 2-3 years ago selling in the $3500 price range today. IMO, the truck you linked to woulda been a 1500-2000 truck around these parts.

I don't think you guys read the whole ad. He's including an extra rebuilt 351M with a four barrrel set up. That and the truck are worth about $2500, so he isn't off by much on his asking price. You might be right on the bed though.
