Re: 1970 C10 SWB Value

I want and looked at this truck for myself this evening. It's pretty rusty.

The outer rockers have been replaced at some point and the ends are screwed to the body. They are rusting again so they have been there a while. The driver inner rocker was gone. Passenger inner rocker was there, but rusty.

Driver cab corner was beat up and rusty. It had been bondo'ed over at some point and the bondo was cracked and coming off. Passenger cab corner was intact and in remarkably good condition.

Floor pans were rusty on both sides where they met rockers.

Both doors had considerable rust at the bottoms.

Drip rail area was fair. Some light rust present.

Front fenders looked decent.

Bed had a ton of surface rust all over. Bed rail on drivers side was thin enough to start having holes show through. The wood was long gone, inner bed sides where they met the wood were rusted. Tailgate was starting to rust through very slightly. Driver rear fender was rusty inside but not bad. Passenger rear fender had serious rust inside the front.

The interior was mostly complete. May have been original rug, even though it was trashed from getting wet and being covered with crap.

Apparently the truck has not run since about 2005. I grabbed the crank pulley and was able to get it to turn a small amount so the engine is at least not totally locked up.

I said it was pretty far gone for me and wasn't super interested. He wanted me to give him an offer anyway so I threw 1000 at him. (With younghandymans blessing) He countered and held at 1200 so I walked away.
