Thread: one truck I wish I never sold.

37 The Lil Red Express Trucks seem to be abundent in the market at reasonable prices.

I've been following the prices for about a year now (since I picked up my 76 True Spirit) . Nice low mileage originals seem to go in the 15-18K range and higher mileage one's (usually needing a bit of TLC) can go in the 5-10K range.

There are usually about half a dozen on E Bay at any given time. The nice thing if you pick up a builder is that EVERYTHING is available either NOS or reproduction.

I don't really think you'll see a real sharp increases on these in the near term but I doubt you would loose money on one either.

Might be a good time to look at picking up another one

Mike Most what I've seen are the 79's which had dual head lights and smog equipment on the engine. There were over 5,000 79'2 made compared to little over 2,000 78's. Most 78's that I've seen come up for sale are either junk or they want to much money for them. I'll find one some day and empty out my bank account again.
