You really need to put a price on your stuff if you really want to sell it. There is no way for anyone to read your mind on what you want to sell it for, (besides top dollar). You know what the truck really is, you know what you need to get out of it, You need to price it.
Nobody really has any success selling anything with just posting something up and saying make an offer, Especially if they aren't there to actually look at it, and have to consider having to tow it away, get it home and deal with any hidden surprises.
If you want to sell it,... price it,..If you want offers on it,..put it on ebay and let it go to the highest bidder,..but this aint ebay,..
good luck,.
my usual offer for trucks for parts trucks is 300-700. having removed the good parts off the truck and installing junk parts makes your truck a "parts truck". removing dash, seats, doors and steering column will really cut into a vehicle's value. but hey, if you can get the guy offering 3500 to take it as it is now, you better go find him fast. you won't find many buyers like him out there.thanks for the info ... I guess I will look up some prices ... and price accordingly ... it can be started by putting back in the switch ... no, that wont proove its reliable or driveable, but would prove it starts ...
With anything you buy, there is potential for suprises ... hidden or not.
im shooting for $2500 out of the truck ... thought I would make more parting it out. Someone local offerd $3500 before I took dash and seats ... I havent asked him (yet) if hes still interested ...
you will need a ZF out of a 4wd truck or a F450. you're across the kali state line and f450's will be going cheap again very shortly. you can get both a ZF and a hydro changeover at the same time and sell off the rest as scrap.lowball would be 1000 or less . 1500 aint bad.

Good idea thanks, I'll have to try n' keep an eye out.you will need a ZF out of a 4wd truck or a F450. you're across the kali state line and f450's will be going cheap again very shortly. you can get both a ZF and a hydro changeover at the same time and sell off the rest as scrap.
Actually, I would take Calvin's suggestion one step further and make a recommendation. The lower 1st gear on the F-450 ZF really makes life easier if it's possible, I would go out of my way to find one...Good idea thanks, I'll have to try n' keep an eye out.
i saw someone selling a zf5 4x4 for 600 maybe
Sadly, that's often the case. It's a matter of being willing to take the time and resources to store the chassis and to pull, pack, and ship the various parts, vs selling the whole thing and getting it off your hands quicker. The question is, do you have plenty of time to burn whee you can go and pull individual parts and don't have to worry about storing the truck, or do you need to get the thing gone quickly? FWIW, to anyone other than me, my truck is easily worth more in parts than she is whole. Oftentimes, that's just how the market works...not trying to pick on your or hurt your feelings or anything on those lines.Im sorry, I thought the turbo set up was worth $500+, the motor $500+, the trans $500, doors $50/ea, dually fenders $100/ea or bed and fenders around $400, dont know about rear bench, cab, chassy/title, rear end etc ... it seems Id be better off selling parts individually thatn selling it as a $1500 parts truck.

With that said, if you put the interior back together so that it were a complete truck, depending on the overall mileage and mechanical condition, $3500 wouldn't be out of line. But, as it sits, it really can't be presented as anything beyond a parts truck...and, regardless of what's included, most people would consider themselves lucky to get more than $1000 out of a parts truck. Again, no offense intended; that's just how it is.
In any event, best of luck to you regardless of the route you choose. And, again, if you decide to part it out and can get the various parts to the PDX area, I am interested in the bed/dualie fenders and the front clip (bumper, front fenders, hood, and cowl covering)...

if you do revisit my offer, here's the terms....motor has no blowby, no strange noises coming from either the motor or trans, dually fender doghouses are intact and not cracked, and no other parts other than the ones you already stated are removed from the truck.
good luck with the sale.
