I just bought at auction a 1965 fire truck with a 409
9,000 miles on it. It was just taken out of service. Runs great,
drove it home. Anybody have any idea what itis worth?

Check casting # on block, the last 2 f trucks ive ran across had 655 348 blocks,not 656 ,as for the value its totally your call,
you own it, you paid for it, and you no how much you want to make!. Depends on how its going to be built IE; use only cab and motor to build a short box. use cab & chasis to build a ramp truck to carry your nostalgia super stock, or leave as is for parade and car show use. All these create a different value for a potential buyer.
Now thats all done it,s still your choice. How much for cab and engine????

It,s worth what the seller takes, & the buyer pays!

sounds just like the 65 409 dump truck I found a few years ago. (not in condition, obviously) but anyhow, the engine turned over good, and the owner wanted $400 for the engine at that time. (I have the other post in the truck section) Can't say anything on value for the whole truck though, depends on what it is worth to you. I'd personally want some sort of hauler out of it, or just pull the engine and modify for car use. It'd be worth more in a car. Just my 2 cents...Jim
