In NC, home of the Slick, probably not more than 1000-1200 bux I would guess. In the rust belt, add at least another thou. Just MHO/Guess, assuming it will run.

Are you selling or buying? I would stop in and see what Bitlittle or Bulldog has in his inventory

I've allways wonderred why someone hasn't driven a truck in 10 years, unless he has had it torn down or some reason. A 51 thousand mile truck on the face of it sounds good. If it is a 51 K truck that is, even with low mileage time takes a toll on mechanical things. Setting also does harm. My guess, he quit driving it for something better, or it had something wrong with it. It also matters, if it has been kept in a barn or storage. Frankly a 63 with the 60 bed on it looks bad in my opinion. The value of the bed is helped by the cover, but not much, as those beds really didn't belong on this style truck. Kinda a bastard child in my opinion. I personally wouldn't want to get to much involved in it, unless it was near perfect. Another bastard problem the 63 had were the front brake cylinders, a high dollar item, as 63 was the only year to use that setup. If I were to buy the truck, I would convert to the later style.

i think it sounds like an excellent candidate for a f250 4x4 frame.
nothing better to drive than a slick,or a bump, so no good reason to let it sit for all that time.

1 paid a 1000 for my slick-er-ator (slick with fridge bed) with a running 223 inline.
