Default Re: 1962 F-250 Unibody value

I'm the last guy to ask about prices of anything let alone trucks.

For the year it looks to be in pretty good condition, unless the other side is all caved in or the drivetrain has problems. Photos aren't like being there or driving it. And even being there doesn't mean you won't miss some important problems. (don't ask me how I know)

Like any used vehicle 'asking' prices are almost always 10 to 20% high. (or more) It all depends on the actual condition of the truck, how much repair work you're able to do yourself, how bad you want it and if the seller thinks it's made of gold or wants it gone before it needs more repair$.
Almost none of which which can be easily discovered long-distance thru a keyboard.
Unless the seller has documentation of recent work done it's safest to assume most everything will need some repair or possible replacement, until proven otherwise.

Do you know anyone near you that's even passingly familiar with old cars & trucks? Is there a car or truck club near you that you could ask for assistance? A second set of eyes to look at the truck with you can be very valuable, along with that person's opinion, which may be more objective than yours.
