1978 super cab frame value?
I have a 1978 f250 2wd drive short bed frame I'm sitting on right now and I'm wondering what kind of money it would bring if I sold it? I have a 79 f250 4wd SC long bed I'm just getting started on the tear down for a frame off restoration and cummins conversion. I bought the 78 for some of the parts it had on it. I'm having trouble making up my mind whether or not I should keep it. I like the idea of having a short bed and a long bed SC and I don't want to be sorry I sold it. Anyone have any info on the value of just the frame? Thanks in advance!

Keep the frame .. It's a perfect cruiser frame .. If I had it there's know ay I'd give it up especially since you won't end up getting as much as you think for it in the end .. People shop for the short frame with most of the goodies with it already

Btw, I think I'm going to keep the frame. I'm probably going to be on the lookout for a good bed now. I really like the 8' bed on my truck but, now I'm going to have to decide which frame to use when I start my restoration in the next few weeks. If I find a good bed I'm in trouble.

I see 2 restorations
1) summer cruiser 2wd with locker rearend drive when roads are salt free .. She's a beauty
2) 79 F250 4x4 winter/work truck to work in Summer when you don't want to get your mistress (2wd) dirty ..
On the 2wd take your time build it right .. She'll turn heads every where you go
