Just offering my 2 cents worth of advice. As with anything COLLECTIBLE,
there may be quite a bit of difference in value once it starts deviating
from original factort as built specs. I saw one recently (advertised on
EBay), that happened to be local. Nice truck, BUT it had the wrong bumper,
wrong rims, NOS, a 360, headers.... It was a BEAUTIFUL truck, nicely
maintained, but as for collectible value certainly not worth the 10K asking
price. I would have offered 7K no problem due to low mileage, and the "Toy
factor", but I already have several of toys, and was looking at the
potential as a collectible.
