Part or Sell Whole

Post by JHawes »

After many hours of thought, I've decided that my M37 is not for me. I've always wanted a Civilian 1-ton Power Wagon and I can't get that WANT out of mind so I'm going to keep saving to get what I truely desire.

So, . . . . should I part out my M37 or sell er' whole?

I'm pretty sure the engine is a boat anchor and the tranny is MIA. Cab/tub has cancer spots that can be fixed by someone with a little more patience than I have. Otherwise, the remainding drivetrain, interior, winshield and exterior is in really good shape for a resto.

NEVER part out a truck that can still be saved! Sell it whole, listing any known defects and/or missing pieces, with a reasonable "as is" price. It won't take you long to find a buyer!

It's good that you are making this decision now and now after spending mucho $$$.

Lifer's got it right, don't part it out. It's not easy to find good restoration candidates depending on where a buyer lives. Advertise it and you'll soon be hunting that Power Wagon.
