I have an 85 s-10 w/ and 85 t-type motor in it and it runs good, but it needs a few things and im thinking about selling it to get a newer truck for work!
heres the details
1985 Chevrolet S-10, Ext.cab, 4x4(4x4 is not working due to the turbo motor), Blue on blue
Pwr. wndows, alpine tape player, blazer rims,
new leaf springs, 3" body lift, bigger tires,
Buick digital dash, boost/vac gauge, 700r4 tranny-(tranny is in great working condition), the truck has an 85 t-type motor (K&n, new bearings, crank pushrods,lifters rebuilt oil pump, 02s, catless, rebuilt turbo from blue ribbon, full wiring harness from an 85 t-type(engine and inside), new coolant temp sensor and a few other things-minimal things!
Things that are wrong w/ it
Body isnt in great shape, looks okay but i live near the shore so rust is present!, Cracked winsheild, turbo motor is running rich due to the fact that i had water leak in through the firewall onto the old computer and i got a new one but have the wrong chip in it and need to go to buick and get the right one!, needs some suspension work-shocks really!, and thats basically it! I am wanting to sell it and my question was how much should i ask for it?

Hi Chris,
I think the reason no one has responded is that no one knows what it is worth. Something like what you have isn't worth much to most. Most people look at it as a parts vehicle, with the trouble of having to remove the parts they want. BUT, there are a few people out there that would love to have one. Those are the ones that would pay a decent price for it. It is all up to what they are willing to pay. Your best bet is to figure out what the lowest you want is. Then advertise it as 'Best offer'. If you don't get offered your minimum, then don't sell. I know what you are up against. I built a wagon. Alot of people like it, but I don't think that I would get too much for it, unless I could find the right buyer. But, that's fine with me, it's not for sale. Good Luck.

Brian
