Long bed agony
Hi everyone! Brand new to this site, it's awesome! So I am trying to get rid of a 1959 f100 that I pulled out of a barn after 20 years, and put some money into getting it going. Now I'm trying to sell it and nobody seems to want to touch a long bed. I'm posting on here to see if anyone might want it, or if you guys might think it would be worth more parted out? I would hate to see it taken apart and to have anything not used, but I need the money. Thanks!

I don't know what you have it in but I'd have to think a complete running truck is worth more than the sum of its parts. Now, if it isn't running then perhaps selling it as parts might be better. The long bed trucks are less desirable than the short beds so you may have to wait for the right buyer to come along...

I might take it off your hands if the bed is in good shape. Is it a fleetside or stepside? Pics would be helpful!

I part out a few older trucks and cars. One at a time and sell the parts on ebay. Many old trucks will bring a lot more in parts than they will whole, but they have to be real solid parts, no rusted out stuff. Go on ebay and look for your model year in vintage parts, then click completed items and you will see. You just end up with about a ton of iron that needs to go to the crusher when you're all done..
