But Bob, These old trucks are worth a lot of money. Just ask anyone who has watched some of the reality shows or auctions.

Looks like scrap to me. What good is a title without a frame?

A local guy had a 1955 F100 for sale on CL for $4,700...it had a few rotted out boards in the bed, no tailgate, no grille, no radiator, no bumpers, hood front lip rotted away, drip rails rotted, interior shot, a complete POS. The ad said "serious buyers only"...I sent him an email telling him that if he wanted a serious buyer then he better become a serious SELLER. What a joke...
