Do you have a use for a low GVW F250? If not, pass.

For 200 ots hard to pass on. Even if its just for practice/knowledge. If you got it running easily you shouldn't have a problem selling it for more.

Probably cost that much to get titled/registered in most states.

Some of the most expensive vehicles there are, are the ones that are either free or dirt cheap.

It's worth more than $200 as scrap metal. However, it could be just that: scrap.
I'd spend a day trying to get it running but I wouldn't put much money into it.
