Whats it worth?
I have the opportunity to buy a 1959 F250. Long bed small rear window.
It has no tailgate
Has a 460 and a c6
Original Auto Column
97% rust free from what I could see when I just went and looked at it.
Cracked windshield and pass window
Inner bed fenders are dented up pretty bad and one hole where it looks like a metal rod got jabbed through on a load.
Other then that straight body

There's a pretty broad range there, depending upon how clean the swap was, is there a clean title, does it run and drive perfectly, flareside or styleside, tires, brakes, interior, etc. With what you've provided so far, I'll go out on a limb and say $1250- 5000.

He said I can have it for $650 if it runs when we put a battery in it. Has a bench seat out of a newer car. The body is really nice and the motor mount was somewhat clean but they cut into the firewall so that needs to be patched a bit cuz they have the valve cover slighty inside the fire wall -.-
Its a styleside bed
Its sat for over a year but the radiator fluid has no oil in it and the oil has no water in it so seems like it should fire up with some new gas in the tank

Oh ok haha. I just need to find a spot to keep it. Its current non op so no back fees. But I guess I can register it and park it on the street with a club on it

My other thought was if this thing does run and drive fine, id like to have a second running car in case my 74 breaks again or something and I have to get to a test or a class or even work. Its happened in the past year and riding the bike to work isn't fun -.- talking a bicycle haha
