This may be a dump question, but...
How do I go about selling an antique truck? I've had this 58 Apache for about 10 years now, but it's been in the family since '59. I have no idea what it's worth and would hate being taken advantage of.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. |

Re: This may be a dump question, but...
Hey welcome from Pittsburgh. You'll have to do research such as what others are listed at and what they actually sell for. Condition of the vehicle is a big factor, also what options it has. Such as engine, tranny, big back window, long or short bed ECT...

Re: This may be a dump question, but...
You could spend the $25 to become a supporting board member and it will allow you to ask WIW questions. Take a lot of pictures inside, outside under and engine views.
Get a copy of Old Cars Price Guide and be honest on the real condition of the truck. For instance, most vehicles you see at local car shows are in #3 condition. Check out on-line price eval tools like KBB, Hagarty, etc. |

Re: This may be a dump question, but...
Hey guys, thanks for the replied. Good to see others from Pittsburgh...
Getting an appraisal is a good idea. I'll have to look around for someone who can do that for me. Where should I look, other than ebay, where similar vehicles are for sale? I did see some on this site (and similar ones), but the prices are all over the place. I guess a good place would be car cruises, but I'm not much into those. I spend most of my free time on 2 wheels. Thanks |
