They will become part of the earth if they sit there much longer.
 
GRILL!

I want the one that says "High Voltage" so I can sample Bon Scott saying "HIGH VOLTAGE" and play it through the PA off the CB radio as a horn.

Some part of me always wanted one of those cabovers. They always looked so tough rolling down the highway.
 
Tic... tic...tic....time has not been kind to those 'ol gals. Wonder if the 'Vette would just turn to powder if you tried to move it....

Likely. When my parent's moved into the neighborhood I grew up in, there was a 68 Vette in someones yard that looked pretty good. My father approached the guy many times early on but ... ehem .. he was gonna fix it up. Car was about ten years old when we first noticed it.
Last year they hooked it up to the back of a truck and pulled it in half... and there it sits.
 
I this was a plan, as in I am going to hoard these and then sell them when the market is right, then he needs to go back to the drawing board and talk to a financial counselor. Seems like he took the flip your house in your spare time a little too far.
 
No chance of rattle snakes in that yard...

If he isn't stupid on pricing he'll have no trouble selling them, especially that Aerodyne K100. W900 A models are popular too.

Historical truck buffs will restore anything. All this stuff will find buyers, as they say, for parts or to restore.
 
A frame, engine, and title are all you need to bypass electronic log books per the DOT, as long as you don't work for someone who requires it. So I've been told by my trucker stepson.
 
especially that Aerodyne K100
What's something in that condition worth? What would you need to do to a truck that's been sitting so long, complete engine overhaul? Or the old fuel (wherever you'd put it in a diesel) and fire it up? I found one and I'd love to have an old cabover.
 
All you need is a pre-2000 engine to skip the ELB. They cannot connect the current version of ELB to a engine older than 2000, that will change.
If it will crank, I would spray it with ether and see what happens.
Depends what you do with the truck, but a single axle is limited. Anything without air bags I would consider parts only, unless you want to stretch it way out with a modern cutoff.

Restoring old trucks is like restoring C bodies. You'll never get back what you put in unless you have a very rare or desirable model. That K100 as it sits, maybe $1500, that's if it is complete and the motor is good. Running and pass a DOT, maybe 10k. Restored, be lucky to get 30k. We are doing a working restoration on a 1984 W900. Got about 60k in it and would be lucky to get 30 if we tried to sell it. My son drives it about 2500 miles a week.

$10,000 for a DOT legal Aerodyne K100? You haven't tried to buy one lately. $1500 for a roller is fantasy land. If it's all there and actually runs, all he has to do is wash it and it's $15K +/-. The last working original one that sold in my neck of the woods was a 91, 244WB, 3406B 15 Over with the full VIT package and it went for $50K. That wasn't restored, just good well maintained original condition.

Those W900A's assuming they are complete inside with no parts robbed and don't look like raccoons live in them will easily get +/- $5K, more if they run.

If your W900B is a 60" flat top or an Aerodyne with air ride, you would have a bidding war on your hands at $30k. If part of that $60K you spent was to upgrade to an N14, 3406E/C15 or a Series 60 with a double over RTLO 13 OR 18 and the truck looks like and runs like new, $75K +/- and even a fresh 3406 or NTC 400 will approach that depending on the rest of the package and who is buying.

We will have to agree to disagree @twostick . Down here older trucks (20+ years) dont bring big bucks. There are exceptions, show trucks, ex hood 900A/359 with a 3408/KTA/12V71, a set of boxes, etc, those will usually bring over 50k provided they are running, driving, ready to work. There are plenty of guys who think they have a gold mine, what you want and what you get a usually pretty far apart.
