Need Advice

Hey Guys,

I need some advise, I have '74 F100 Ranger Cab on the Frame. Cab is in Very Good Condition, Paint is also in very good condition. It has a Full Set of Trim all the way around the Cab. The downside is, the front lip has begin to rust and the hood will need to be replaced. It has a rear sliding glass with new trim, the front windshield (will need to be replaced) has the thick chrome trim around it (excellent shape). The interior is for the most part gutted, but in excellent shape. It currently has a 351C with and AOD transmission. My plans are to pull both for future use in a project. My original plans were to put a flat bed on it, and use it to dink around. BUT I have my eye on a completely different project and do not think I will get to this before it succumbs to the weather...what would be a good asking price for the cab, frame, etc...if anyone is interested please let me know...thanks for the help and advise...

It is actually in the first picture, it is the Red One...it has a 302 in it, with a C6 transmission. My buddy lives in Mechanicsville...Overall it was in decent shape...he gutted the interior earlier this week, and it appears he will have to replace the passenger side floorboard, but he has big plans for it...I've been trying to convince him to join the Forum, but he hasn't as of yet...I did take off the stock 2bbl carb and intake and replaced them with an Edelbrock Intake and 4bbl Edelbrock carb...it screams down the road like a scalded dog!

Here is a video of it, the day before we left...
