I’m probably going to cut loose of my 77 440 SE because it needs far more work than I have time to do. In almost a year I’ve had one day for it. It was suppose to be a good runner, but really just lot drives. Hate to see a high optioned truck go, but it’s a sad sight sitting there. Really don’t know what it will bring. 2wd stuff isn’t popular. The ones I see mostly just stay for sale at like 5-7k. https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipNz...kFPdFAweHlBbzR3

I have been lusting over this one. Original 440 truck. Guy wants $30k OUCH !! This one popped up on CL in MD for around $8k 2-3 yrs ago. If I had more garages, I would have been on it. Later showed up at some internet consignment weasel that was trying to get $30k for it. Within the last year I've seen on CL in NJ for $12k. 78 D350 w/ 440.

Now here is somebody that is very out of touch with 72-80 values and no, I wouldn't touch what he's smoking. Listed as an 80 with an ask of $26k. Yes, $26,000. Unless the south american produced trucks are way different than north american trucks, this thing is one of the worst resto flips I've seen. Even if half this stuff was correct, I don't think I'd touch it. 79 grille, 76 or earlier cab (in cab fuel tank), strange bumpers / mirrors / air cleaner, automatic w/ manual brake pedal, home made looking wheel wheels in the bed, goofy dash vents is odd places, ya gotta see the throttle linkage to believe it. https://www.ebay.com/itm/1980-Other-Pickups/163508971584

South American trucks usually didn't incorporate all the changes at the same time as the US did. In Argentina they made the 61-71 truck body style through the late 70s and sold them new into the 80s. They also had a different bed than US trucks. I don't know what is different about a 79 and 80 grille, but they had that style both years. Is there a paint or bezel difference?

I would like to have seen that truck before they started on it. South of the border or not, that is a crappy "resto" if that's what they tried to do. Every other screw doesn't match. Maybe they riveted the name plates on the fenders in the factory down there?  Body and paint looks rough even in the pictures. Guitar, that hood started in '79.  T2R9, that is a nice one.  SomeCarGuy, that's a nice one you have also. If I was in the market for a 2wd, I would probably be all over it.  That's a nice one blewbyu found also but a little (lot) steep in my book.  Tim

Thanks. I go back and forth on keeping it. Hard to find somebody selling one priced to sell when you are looking. Hard to watch one dry rot while time is limited. 20 years ago I’d have had it on the road humming along within 30 days.

The foreign ebay truck is priced typically for that stealership. Ridiculously. And the truck is ugly.

Blewbyu, that's a beautiful truck. MAYBE if it only has something under 50,000 miles and is original paint, runs perfect, rust free, everything works perfectly...could be worth close to $25k to you?

Thanks. I go back and forth on keeping it. Hard to find somebody selling one priced to sell when you are looking. Hard to watch one dry rot while time is limited. 20 years ago I’d have had it on the road humming along within 30 days. I dig the rig - what's not to like about a black big block SE w/ rallye IIs? Might be cooler if it was a shorty. I go back and forth about selling my LRE. Some times I get annoyed about it tying up my finite amount of garage space when I'm mostly driving one of the other trucks. Cash in, move on, let some body else dig it. That mostly goes away when it cranks right up after sitting for 3 months and I go for a run. Doesn't take more than a few WOT blasts to get to they can sell it when I'm dead. Depends on the mood I'm in when I get around to writing a will.

There are very few of these trucks here in Wisc.
Most are short bed 4 W.D.
The few that are in decent shape are priced around 5 or 6 grand.
They do sit quite awhile. Just not a popular truck here about.
The ones I see most often are plow trucks and not for sale.
I have mechanical Aptitude.
I can screw up anything.

And I would think WI trucks would have lots of rot underneath especially. And the snowplow trucks are notorious for rust, for obvious reasons.
