Wb Ute

G'day Guysand Girls,

Just a quick enquiry, what's a WB ute with 350 and t400 rust free worth, has been rego'd with motor in it but 15 years ago,

Cheers

Condition dependant. Straight LPG?

How long is the piece of string......

If it really is rust free and has some good stuff like GTS dash or WB Caprice front, good interior and wheels etc.

350 may not really add any value unless you are desperate for one with a 350 I suppose.

I will say $10000 to $15000 for a real mickey mouse one with nothing needing doing to it, $5000 to $10000 for a rough one with rust bubbles and needing work to make it nice, and anything rougher than that its only worth the value of the engine conversion and other parts.

Waiting for the limb I went out on to snap off........

Yeah i figured it's a piece of string thing, no gas straight petrol, was parked in a shed 15 years ago west of you wbute and no rust bubbles, no gts dash, has hz caprice front with gts guards and one of your pet hates Byron no tarp clips

The biggest hassle will be registering it if it isn't LPG only, as a 350 Chev isn't easy to get passed for ADR27A or later revisions of it. I'd get it all running properly, get oil changed, box serviced, radiator cleaned, carby serviced etc and make it run properly and then you'll get good $. If you just leave as is it will be harder to sell.

I cant see the point of a 350 in a wb. A fuel injected 5 litre is so much easier and they go well enough. No rego hassels and they just bolt in. I reckon the 350 doesnt add any value, probably lowers it in my opinion.

Yeah i know that's what i thought when i first heard about it but that's what is in it now, was originally an L36, does anyone know what that motor id is?

Gives Bazza and Dazza something to talk about when you lift the bonnet.
"Sh!t Bazza, it's got a Chev in it."

"Phark, it must fly."

I hope your valuations are correct James. Makes mine worth more than I thought.
