Bought this 79 Chevy from a guy. Get it home, checkin it out. loll and behold the frame has been cracked and repaired. My stupid fault I know. Trucks worthless to me now. Scared to wheel it after seeing my buddys frame break on a trail. So question lies, do I sell it whole? Or parts? Got it listed here for sale but up for some advice. Check it out in the classified section. Sorry cant figure out how to put a quick link here.:confused:http://coloradok5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=215117

Well don't feel too bad, I bought a K5 that turned out to be completely rusted out under the carpet -it would cost more to fixe the rust than to buy a whole new truck, so that is what I did - but the rust bucket makes a good parts truck now.

If you do sell it whole, make sure you disclose the condition of the frame to any potential buyers. Just because there are people out there who will screw anybody over doesn't mean we all have to be like that.

Look into getting the frame fixed right. If you don't like the welds, grind them out and redo it. If isn't worth it to do that, I'd part it out, that is what I plan to do when I am done with my "parts" truck.
