Need help with pricing - selling

Hey guys. I have a 1994 Ford F350 CCLB with a 7.5L rebuilt motor. I need to sell it. I've spent the last year rebuilding the motor with the intent to sell it when I was done, and it's reached that point. I've owned it for about 5 years now, and it's served me well. However with this going down I bought a 2006 F250 CCSB Powerstroke. I've done lots with it and it'll now be our do everything truck.

I'm in a bit of a financial bind, and I need to sell the 94. I have two options in selling. So I need some help.

First here's what's been done to it in the last 3 years to it.

Full brake system rebuild:
Brake Master Cylinder,
Front Calipers,
Front Brake Pads,
Brake lines (swapped over to SS lines when I did the RSK),
RAB Sensor,
Rear Brake Drum Cylinders,

New A/C lines
Banks Power Pack - Includes: Ram Air Intake, K&N Air Filter, Banks Exhaust Tube Headers, 3" Stainless Exhaust, Magnaflow Muffler, 4" Banks Exhaust tip
Stage 8 Stainless Steel Header Bolts (won't back out)
New Bosch O2 Sensor
New EGR Tubes
Oil Cooler Bypass: Removed the oil filter adapter from the block, removed the oil cooler box, added a new radiator hose to go from the radiator to the block bypassing the box that's no longer there.
Summit Dual Oil Filter Remote Location Kit (adds 2 oil filters and re locates them off the block)
Pro Comp 33" AT Tires
Gear Wheels (I have no idea what kind I got them off craigslist when i bought the truck for the tires they had on them for $150)
Rear Differential Fluid Change
New Motorcraft Fuel Filter
New Motorcraft Ignition Coil
New Thermostat
New Distributor
New MSD Ignition Coil Cap and Rotor
New Motorcraft Ignition Control Module
New TPS Sensor
New EGR Valve and Sensor
New Skyjacker Dual Steering Stabilizer

New Cloyes Timing Gear and Chain Set
New Timing Cover
New Harmonic Balancer
New Motorcraft Spark Plugs
New Ford Racing 9mm Spark Plug wires

New Radiator
New Flex-A-Lite Fan
Full Fluid Flush and Replacement
A/C Recharged
Cleaned intake
Cleaned throttle body
Rebuilt Fuel Injectors - using Mr. Injector parts

Here is my Facebook Page for the Rebuild. (well it wouldn't load - it's Ford Beast-350 on Facebook) I plan to put the pictures up on here in a thread I just haven't had a chance to yet. I will get some pictures of it tonight to put on this post so it will help. I thought I had some on Photobucket but I don't have any good ones and the one I took of my phone must have gotten erased by accident.

So here are my options. As it sits right now, It has the White with Grey middle strip two tone paint (you can see it in my avatar pic). The grey is bad though, it's got some red blotches coming through it, I'm not sure what it is , but it's bad. Very noticeable. It also has a bent up front bumper from a small accident I was in. NO damage other than the bumper itself. Even the brackets are fine.

Option 1 - Put it up for sale the way it sits and let the next owner worry about the bumper and paint

Option 2 - I had planned on plasti-dipping the whole truck black, getting a new bumper, and also tinting the windows. Put it up fro sale after doing all of that extra work.

Which option would bring me more money? Which brings me to the next question. What should I list for taking into account each option?

Thanks guys, i really appreciate any help you can give.

Sounds like a 5 to 6000 dollar truck, have you had any offers on it?

No unfortunately I haven't listed it yet. I've been slacking on it. I need to get some plasti-dip off the door from when I was testing to see if I wanted to do the whole thing or not, and I need to locate a new front bumper.

Once I do that then I'll list it. Thanks for your response.

Well if you are selling it to me, I will give you 1k for it. LOL However, if you are selling it on CL, you might be able to get 5k for it. Hold your ground though, CL buyers are notorious for low balling. I lost several thousand when I sold my 1990 F350 CC dually. Because I needed the money and nobody wanted to pay what it was selling for.
