Sounds nice. There will be a big audience for that truck in AZ. Asking price seems to be between $5-20K. Up to 30K if it has a fresh coat of paint (I assume these vehicles must be meticulously maintained).

I saw a 77 K-20 on FB marketplace today that was a frame-off restoration for $85K. I'm not sure how I feel about that.

How bad are the floors? Flintstone type or just a little crusty? As it sits can it be driven? Heat and AC? Those are the things most important to me and the price I would be willing to pay. You spent good money on the FI and fuel system, but it's on an old engine. I would say 5K if it could be driven home. Ask 10K and see what happens. Why get rid of the truck? You have done a lot of the heavy work. Good luck.

I would be remiss to not ask for pictures. IMHO (and I don’t necessarily agree with this) that many times curb appeal rules the day over awesome mechanical work.

I will say that that is an impressive list of upgrades tho.
