What's it worth? My old, crusty pickup truck ?

Started by Daytona R/T SE, January 22, 2012, 09:55:23 AM

Daytona R/T SE



It's a '94 1500

360 c.i. (5.9 liter for those of you on the metric system)

118K on the clock

Peeling paint

Rusty door bottoms

Back bumper rusted to death ( I have a good bumper for it )

Interior looks like Godzilla used it for a love shack.

A/C still works.

I bought this truck new in May '94 and proceded to beat on it like a red headed step child

until I bought a new victim in October '11


So... What's this heap worth?

Here's a picture:

2500??  depends on the area of the country

More opinions, please!

I'd like lots of replies on this, even if it's:

Unfortunately, being that you know it's a POS, that has had the everlovin' sh*t beat out of it, I'd say it's value is yet to be determined by the buyer of said POS.

If someone's looking for a "Work Truck" as it sounds like what you are referring to here, then It might be worth more to that person. ME? I'd say being what looks to be a 2WD, long bed, around $1000-$1500. Tops.

Run a search on eBay for comparisons then search ended auctions. If it runs good and isn't rusted all to heck you may be surprised. I like it!! Old red Dodge trucks rock!! :2thumbs:

What I consider a crusty beater might be someone else's dream ride.  :shruggy:

All things are relative  :coolgleamA:

I agree, it would make a very good work truck for someone  :yesnod:

Hell...

The A/C works AND it's got a CASSETTE player !

I want the wheels on your truck for mine. I don't like the 3 hole ones I got on my truck.

Hell, I just bought a '99 and it still has a cassette player in it. Had to replace one speaker, but all still works good. I see no need to replace with aftermarket stuff just yet.

   Maybee I'm not doing it wright with my search on All of craigslist. Didn't find much..

  I'd say, put it up for at least $2000.00. Somebody will probably beat you down to 13 or 1,400.

Transportation = $2k.     A dealer would be asking $2,999.   The last part of 2011 pu prices shot up (everywhere).  They've settled down a little,  but I would ask $3k and take no less than $2K.

jb666

Around here, 2wd is fairly useless... I have a buddy who buys at the auction and re-sells cheap... He's got a '95 4x4 right now with 120k on the clock for $999.

I love the honest description though... Great stuff.

Back in November '09 I had all new brakes put on it. Rotors, drums,calipers, wheel cylinders...the works... Four new shocks too... I doubt I put more than 3 or 4 thousand miles on it since then. A few months before that it got a new radiator too...

rt green

up in the rust belt [south dak] you'd get close to 3k to the right buyer. no rust.the problem once again is transportation. i think there is more pickups in this state per cap. than any other
third string oil changer

Up here in B.C, Canada that would be a $2000 truck. :yesnod:

Nobody seems to want 2WD it seems. My son just bought a 97, 1500, 318, 5 speed (which I think is a value adder in these old trucks),club cab, 4wd. It runs great and has no rust other than the drivers door is starting at the bottom. He paid $2000.
