I may have to move my business back home which will require getting rid of all the old trucks and parts.
I have
68' chevy panel http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=491574
71 K5 blazer ( basically stripped) but still have most parts for it. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=507040
72 K5 Blazer complete and running ( have all rust repair parts) http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...=507040&page=2
72K5 Blazer mostly rust free http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=527913
70 short bed stepside with 71/72 suspension no drivetrain http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=526813
72 c30 longhorn super 402 4 spd (rough but lots of good parts) http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=537141
79 c10 shortbed fleet. 400 small 400 turbo 80% finished http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/c...t-fleet&cat=13
hundreds of parts, you can see a lot of them hanging on the wall in some of the pictures.

I guess my main question is would I have any luck trying to sell all of this as a package? With my injuries from an accident and still struggling to keep my business going I do not have time to break it up and sell by the pc.

I know I have not given a lot of description but I don't want to bore with pages of info still not being sure of what my immediate future holds.

Thanks
Richard

my advice is sell the trucks separately. if you dont have much time, list a few weekend showing dates/times in your ad for people to come look like an open house. let them do the heavy lifting when they buy. try and sell parts with the trucks for good prices, then let the remaining parts go as a cheap package. in my experience if you need these things to move you need to list at 1/2 their value. even then its hard to move some parts.

imho packages dont sell unless you price it so low someone can make major flipping money.

Richard, I didn't know you got hurt. Sorry to hear that added to the trials and tribulations you were already dealing with. I had to leave my shop behind,start selling stuff,and find/make space here at the house...as well as come to the realization my hopes and dreams needed tweaking to the tune of maybe just a truck or two. I've sold many things in the 7 years since and still have a lot left. I sold the trucks one by one and I think that's your best bet. The parts,unless you have the time to sell individually,could maybe be offered as a lot. You'll get far less,but something to be said for your time. When you get a buyer for a truck,you could offer added parts for more money,too,or just use that to sweeten the deal if the buyer is hinging.
