Welcome to FTE!
Hard to say without actually seeing it. If it's in good shape, runs good, and doesn't leak too much, then it could be worth that or more.
As far as mileage, all I can say is that nobody buys a 390 for economy. You'ld be lucky to see 12 out of it.

The nations truckstop.Why don't you ask your friend what kind og gas milage he gets with it now. None of us have driven the truck and don't know. I would suspect 6-8 mpg. IMHO
