Default Contemplating Selling my 78 k5

So recently I have been thinking about selling my '78 k5 which I just built a new 383 for has roughly 30 miles on the motor itself. Body could use a little bit of work but I figured I would straighten it up and paint it flat black to get it looking decent. Any ideas on what I might be able to get for it?

Ha yea I wouldn't let my dad sell it either a few years back so he just gave it to me. Idk maybe after I fix this next set of problems it will go without any for awhile, that would probably change my mind into keeping it.

Yeah, my dad's had the 79 since I was born back in '90. He said something about selling it and I broke down in tears lol. So now we are restoring it I win. lol

You're always gonna have problems with old vehicles lol. Its part of the fun of owning them

Ha that's cool. Yea I was born in '90 as well and my dad got the truck when I was about 7 and for about 8 years it was our DD and every weekend we were out wheeling it with his buddies so I really didn't want to see him let it go.

Yea reelbroke but see I dont quite think an old beat to sh** chevy truck would count as a classic, they are all over the place. Your vehicle is only really worth what someone is willing to pay for it and I'm not too sure I could get very much for mine lol.

Cause you aren't, and I will drive to CA and beat your butt if you do.

Ha I find that very hard to believe. I don't think it would be worth the gas to drive all the way out here to lose a fight
