Seems like most of them have been cut and chopped and mutilated beyond belief.

If you watch Old Cars Price Guide, and I just picked up the 2017 issue, they value '35 pickups in #1 condition at $26,000 and '36's in #1 condition at $25,500 if I recall. The book is out in the garage. This seemed kind of on the weak side because a '35 or '36 pickup in absolutely mint condition will almost always bring upper 30's to around 40 grand from what I have seen in the auctions, not counting buyer's premium of usually 10%

ALSO please note I'm not asking you what you sold for that is NO ONE'S business but your's and the guy that bought your pickup...............

He said exactly that, he said he was looking for a non chopped up, original complete truck and he said he could not find anything. I trust him, he is going to add some speed equipment to the 21 stud, maybe reverse the eyes on the springs and put in a oak wood bed kit. All stuff I have no problems with at all. Heck I probably was going that route also
