I'm selling my 1998 12v Extended Cab Automatic. Mechanically it runs just like a stock 12v should. The first time I washed it I ended up with a different color coming through, it's called primer. Then I powered washed it and of course it made more of the primer color shine through. When I first got it the AFC box came out from Power Driven Diesel. I bought one with the gauge on it along with injectors and CVs. Still in the box in the closet. Is there any point putting them on to try and get a better price or just sell these parts separate? I can put a paint job on it for about $350 but it's not going to cover any or much body work (small places). Maybe just cleaned up real good and don't worry about it. The only thing I know that is an upgrade is a better valve body put in by the builder. I'm close to getting done with the dash core that was cracked and missing pieces so when the light switch is put back in it will stay there and of course with the bezel in place it will look good. I have put on about 7,000 miles in the last 3 years, it has now about 262,000 on it. Any suggestions?

That's why I ask for advice, thanks. No point then in paint, waste of money.

Unless you make it look better then it may worth something but your time and effort may worth something too. 

Like everyone else says, Don’t try to put a cover up pant job, it would be better to let someone see what they are getting, I know if I was looking at used I would want to see what it really is.

Don't put any money into it.  You never get it back out.

After reading all of these and thinking about the reply's I think it would be best to leave it like it is. Even selling the add on parts a little less than what I paid for them would be better than not getting any money out of it at all. Thanks

Just post it up in the classified section. You can post the truck and the parts separate.

Thank you, I'll do that soon. Good place to start.
