Help with Vin Numbers Please

I need answers today please!

I found a 79 3/4 ranger on a farm (I posted about the other day) The alt. and belt are off the truck so a can't start it. The guy that owned it died six years ago and it has sat in a shead ever since. The body is fairly rough. I've got the VIN if someone can tell me what the VIN says and also do you folks think it is worth $500 buck?

F26SCDF4335 Trans: K Axle: C7

Thanks

From the details of the VIN, it's well worth the $500. Even if it's too rough to restore or whatever, you always can part it out. There are a lot of stuff that's worth some money.

a few missing belts shouldn't stop you from starting it. Just don't let in run long!!!!! But hey $500 for a 3/4 4x4 how could you go wrong?
