Default I Have a Question

I have a 1967 Ford F100 truck in decent condition. Been told it can be registerd as a classic truck and all that.

Does need paint , body is in good shape with only one minor ding I can find. Has buckets seats that cant be original and the original radio is gone. Has an updated automatic 305 v8, new radiator, fan shroud, fan motor. Tires and rims will be updated soon.

Anyone know what this truck would be worth? as is?

Would it be best to fix it up to original condition? Is it actuall a classic truck that is sought after?

Any info would be apprecitated.

Its a shortbed fleetside. I will be goin to get the camera tomorrow or wednesday. I would do it sooner, but I have been down with double pneumonia and the flu with both ears infected badly. Spent 4 days in the VA hospital so Im gonna give it a day or two before I venture out.

If my daughter has time I may have her take pics and I will post them.

Keep in mind That just cause its old, don't mean its worth a fortune........if it ain't perfect and rare, then its just an old truck......I like those body styles alot, with the right stance, they look raeal mean!

Yea Dink you are right about that. I have seen some trucks in this class that should go to the crusher and their owners want $5k for them just because they are old-and most of those have no motor!! lol

My first truck was a 67 ford. It had a 240 6 cylinder. My dad and I painted it with a paint brush, put cattle guards on it with a 3" cypress wood floor in the bed. The Principle at my school said it looked like I should be selling watermelons on the side of the road. It was Lunar Green with a White top.
