@PrairieDrifter were you the guy looking for a manual tilt column?

I think @SquareRoot was

If anyone is interested for reference on their own project, the truck that I posted about in this thread in January just sold yesterday for $7,500. I didn't do anything else to it other than what I had already posted. I didn't get what I wanted for it, but it's better than nothing.

Honest value opinions welcomed. Very serious about selling my all original '79. It's a 2 wheel drive short bed, 305 3-speed manual, 62K miles. Purchased new in '79 by my father. Original paint, engine, etc. Located in western PA. Radiator does have a leak when hot. But otherwise, truck runs great.

Help me understand the market before I try to get it sold. (More pics to follow)

Such a good looking truck. Lots of value there but I don't know enough to guess.

WOW! Now that is a true factory survivor!

My dad's '79 K15 Sierra Grande was that color.

@Midnightmoon I have no idea, but just throwing a number out there I would say 25-30k if you cleaned her up real nice.

Look at sold prices on Mecum Auction to see what comps sold for?
I went to Mecum Indy and some of the prices were insane.

Thanks for the ideas everyone.

Beautiful truck, great color and appears unmolested.
No one can tell you what to specifically price it at; Utah is different from Tennessee and different from Vermont, but you know that.
When you start getting past the 15K mark, options make a substantial difference. The lack of 4WD and A/C are two I'm noting.
What market does that truck fall into? Very few will pay a premium for that as a daily driver as the value will diminish greatly. It is definitely car show quality or attractive for someone who wants a clean original base to modify. That is probably your market.
If that belonged to my dad, I'd leave it to my widow to sell.

Are you sure you want/need to sell it? It sure is a beauty and it's always been in your family.

That is a very valid point.

Hey Justin, miss seeing you on here.

Hey Justin, miss seeing you on here.

Thanks. Miss you guys too. Dealing with a bunch of things here unfortunately that has completely occupied my time.
