As you said its been sitting awhile,use that fact plus the rarity of parts for such an old-large truck to work the price down.Put a little time into it before you make an offer by seeing if it will run and drive.Use any negative aspect to get the price down.Sounds like a early to mid 60's W500.I let 2 W500's get past me during the last few years only for lack of funds.One was a 59' ex-firetruck in great shape for $3500 the other a 64'lumber yard delivery truck with mint interior& dump 20' flatbed for $5000 both bought by a pulp wood cutter-hauler so you know I was sick when I found that out, knowing what would become of those nice trucks! $1500-2000 tops for yours unless you can't stand the thought of a pulpwooder beating it up in the woods!
