Toying with the idea of selling my F250 once I get the paint finished. It's 4x4 on 35" tires (fronts are getting worn) non-stock freshly built 460, regular cab long bed, zero rust, interior is in really nice shape. ZF5 transmission. New dual exhaust. Please tell me it's worth more than I paid for it when it barely ran!


Purchased with lots of mud/body rust



Here is a picture during engine install....driver side was recently painted, passenger side will soon be painted accordingly. New quarters and doors, bed rust properly fixed.



Interior: new carpet


New headlights....


Don't roast me, but I'm thinking about selling or trading for a Suburban. I'd like a large, older SUV for pulling a trailer that I can also put child seats in. Aside from a centurion Bronco, if there are any suggestions out there, I'd love to hear them. It kills me on the inside to be considering a chebby. Not crazy about Excursions.....

 

Nice truck. How many miles on body/rebuilt motor? Around here in that condition, they go for about 3k-4k.

 

Is the engine got paperwork, or did you just put a junkyard motor in?

If no papers, its going to affect the sale price.

Personally, I think 3 is what I would ask. Its a very nice truck, but still just a 3/4 ton gasser.

 

Around 3k, never get out what you put into it.

 

The engine block and heads were professionally machined. Heads reassembled at the shop. I reassembled the engine. There are maybe 5k miles on the engine. Not sure about the body but the odometer says 86k, so lets assume 186k or 286k. 3-4 seems pretty reasonable. Sadly I paid 2800 and have put a few thousand into it but I knew I'd never get all my money back out. I've listed it on the high side for $4500 on CL just to get a feel for the market.

 

Same year and interior color as mine. I would take the first two grand that someone offers you.
