How do I get a value from a JObject?

Where to get an accurate value on a 1969 F-350?

  • Hi all, I was wondering if anyone knew of a web site where I could get an accurate value for this truck? Or if I send someone all the info on it and some photos, if someone would be able to value it for me. I checked locally, and no one seems to do it. I've checked the NADA classic guide web site, but the problem is that they only give the values for crew cabs and flare side pick-ups. This one is a stake bed, a rack body with tool boxes on the side under the bed. The racks are short. It was the previous owner's grandfather's truck and he couldn't fit it in the garage with the racks at full height, so he cut them to half their height. They still look awesome! We just bought this truck, and while we know we got a really good deal on it, the insurance company wants to know a value for it, and apparently they won't send someone out to do it, even if we pay for it. They don't care too much right now, because we're carrying regular insurance on it, but we want to register it as "historical" next year, or sooner, and to do that we need to have "historical" insurance on it. Then the insurance company will definitely want a value for it. Any help is appreciated. Thank you in advance!

  • Answer:

    The insurance company wants a dollar figure so they can estimate your insurance premium.. the greater the value you place on the truck the more your insurance is going to cost... you and you alone can put a replacement value on the truck... Check Hemmings motor news as this may help in determining an accurate value without gouging yourself..

There is no book value on a 1969. As for Chrysler products, I've owned them almost all my life, I still do. Never had a problem other than normal wear. PS , you will notice, Dodge Chargers are the new chosen cars for police to drive. That says a lot for Chrysler. To get an accurate value, you will need to take it to an appraiser.

fords are junk but if it runs good and is tuned up real nice someone will buy it. but it's only worth what someones willing to pay

Well you will need either an certified appraiser, or you will have to sit down and calculate the total amount it would take to replace the truck if it were completely destroyed. I hate to bring you bad news, but Ford trucks of this era, have a very small niche market. I'm not saying its worthless, I'm just saying if you are using this as an investment, you would be better lowballing the insurance and putting the extra money from the insurance payments into something more lucrative. In my opinion, if it is a 99% original, mint truck you could expect around 13,000 - 15,000 in the current market. As it becomes more collectable you may see a gain of up to 20,000 in the next 10-15 years.
