Default wrecked chevy silverado 1500

Hello, I'm new to this board and wanted to post this here to see what you guys thought. I have a wrecked 2001 Chevy Silverado 1500 with 146,000 miles on it. Here are some pictures.





I was wondering how much you guys think I can sell this truck for?

The only thing wrong with it is that it needs new leaf springs, new shocks, a new rim, new tire, and a new bed.. I don't have the time or money to put into it the repair it myself.. so i was going to sell it.. the drive shaft slid out of the transmission but that will be an easy fix as you can slid it back in when you fix the leaf springs.. Other than that it has power windows, cold AC, power locks, power steering, power brakes, etc.. Engine and transmission are in mint condition and the interior is in mint condition.. the rear axle looks fine and the frame doesn't look bent at all.. I was wondering what you guys think I could get out of this?

Thanks a lot for any advice!
~Regards.

I'd say around $3,000, parts and labor and paint work will be pretty high.

I'm in Missouri, too far to come and have a look.

Hi jdoh,

Welcome to the Chevy Forums.

This may be a case of "the parts are worth more than the whole". You may want to consider selling all the parts.

A decent vortec engine, some aluminum rims, the hood and hinges, the front grill,bumper and radiator, seats,it all adds up.

Do you think that I can sell the whole thing for $1500? Or do you think that I could get more than 1500 dollars for it if I just parted it all out?
