PLEASE HELP!!

I need some help,
My husband passed away last summer we own a 1970 F-150 approx. 110,000 original miles. He was going to fix the transmission and little tlc and make it his daily driver. So here i am with a truck that i cannot fix up myself or afford to have done for me. He was a big!!! Ford guy. I'm looking for some advice on what it could be worth to sell it? I figured this would be a great place to ask being your all Ford Truck folks. Thank you in advance for any advice given.

Heart Broken Widow..

Welcome, Mrs. Daniels. We are sorry about your loss.
If you could tell us where you live our guys near you can give you a good idea of what the truck might bring in your area. On Craig's List. Meanwhile, drive it and think of your husband.

Respectfully

You would need to provide more information and probably some pictures to help answer that question?

Sorry to hear about your husband.

Pictures would help to better determine a "value" of the truck.

The truck, at minimum, would be an F100. The F150 didn't come out until 1975.

Sorry for your loss. Been there and done that with my mate
and a couple of kids. PM me if you need a friend to chat with.
So the trans is in opp at this time? Is it an automatic? What
does it do or not do? You can prolly get the money back for
the repairs and sell a running/driving truck faster than one
that doesn't drive. Please give us as much info as you can.
We can't see what you see so pics are a must. As well as any
and all info you can give. The more you share with us the more
help we will and can give. Again I know your pain and loss. An
know that I have and will continue to pray for you.



Here is how to post pic's on FTE

https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...ure-guide.html

Here is one way by "Axracer"

Do you have digital pix of your truck from digital camera or phone on your computer?
If so it is easy to add them to a post (assuming the file is not too large). Find the
pic on your computer and leave it open while you come here in another window. Compose
a post, click where you want the pic to appear in the post. Click on the picture icon
at the top of the posting box (looks like a postcard with mountains and sun) A dialog
box will open asking if you want to drag a pic onto the box or browse your computer to
find it. If you have the pic open, go there, right click anywhere on the pic and chose
copy from the menu. Come back to your post and right click on the box. Select paste from
the menu. Your picture should appear (it may take a few seconds to load) in the box. Now
left click on the insert button.
If the stars all aligned your picture should now be in your post window. Select post to
have it appear on the forum or repeat to add more pix. Some cameras make huge files these
days that are larger than the forum limits. You may need to resize or resample the picture
and save the smaller file version with whatever picture editing software came with your
picture taking device before you can post it.


If you are a supporter than just right click on an image from anywhere like Facebook
or whatever. Than left click in your post and paste it in. So simple even a monkey
could do it.

Oh! and welcome to FTE and the old truck madness.
