Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) RARE truck worth??

[Justin1889]

I ran across a 98 12 Valve quad cab Laramie 4x4 shortbed auto the other day. 179K highway miles, transmission rebuilt at 169K, truck is in excellent shape (no dents or dings anywhere), grill guard, nerf bars, toolbox, bed caps, bed rails, the bottom of the leather seats were recovered last week, 250 miles on 4 new firestone a/t tires. Any idea on what would something like this be worth?? Thanks for the help.

This one went for $18,600. I would say with that many miles... $12,000 - $15,000 should be close.



With that many miles there are a lot of things on the truck that may need work. Engine should be good for only 800,000 more miles though.

I'm looking for a 1998 Quad-Cab, shortbed, 4x4, 12-valve with an NV-4500.



1) I'm not having much luck finding anything.

2) They're going for $13-19k - depending on mileage, etc.

ugh, that really blows! I am sorry to hear that!



On the other hand, I wonder what mine is worth (See sig) while we are talkinig about the 'rare model'... Mine is a 6 speed, so its even more rare.

Distributor on D-C STOLE one of those that a little man owned about a year ago.



No difference in owners, as he is skeered to enter it in anything that would require non-bluehair driving.

$18000/180 hp is $100 per hp.

I was figgerin to sell Sickly at only about $32/hp. Maybe I should try to get $80,000 (Western dollars, of course)

EDIT: Just in case the smilies didn't indicate so, it's not for sale. :-{}

A friend of mine just bought a 98 12v 5 speed,175,000 miles quad cab, utility bed, ladder rack, loaded except leather for 10,000. It has a rebuilt transmission and a new clutch. On the down side it did have a few electrical gremlins and a crack across the windshield as well as a few scratches and dings. The price was low because of the electrical trouble, but most of the problems turned out to be easy fixes. He hasn't even had it for 3 weeks and I already talked him into 370 injectors, fuel plate, and a sbc 13" ofe clutch



When I ordered my truck back in 98 I waited a few extra months just to get the new 24v engine. Looking back now I wish I would of gotten the 12v instead. :{ Gotta love that p-pump!!
