How much is my truck worth?

Asked by Oldred78 Nov 07, 2013 at 10:50 PM about the 1978 Ford F-150

Question type: Shopping & Pricing

Here's the rundown on my truck. I
have a 78 f150 ranger lariat 2wd reg
cab long bed c6 automatic has origin
a/c and cruise control and it works.
Also has the passenger side bedside
tool box/compartment, even has the
original spare tire and radio. 400m v8
has 109,000 original miles needs
very little body work paint still shines
even the tailgate opens and closes
perfect and is in perfect shape. Only
modification is headers mufflers
wheels and tires. I've been herring
that my particular truck is hard to
find in the shape it's in. Opinions and
prices would be greatly appreciated!

Did some digging. Herers what I found. $2500 for a beater with different color finders and panels. $5000-$9000 for all original, everything works, good paint. $10000 + for perfect like new fully restored trucks. It really all depends on how much it is worth to you to keep and/or how much someone is willing to give for your 35 year old piece of history. Personally I would not settle for low ballers unless you just have to have the money.
