Is it OK if I hate the whole truck? Because I do.
He'll never see that price for it, not even close. There are two things that can make a 454SS valuable. Super low miles + super original condition, OR, super modified in a very tasteful and well-done manner that appeals to a wide variety of buyers. Because let's face it, the 454SS market isn't very large. They're cool trucks but down on power unless heavily modded, so the big money is going to go to toys that go faster. Not to one that someone slapped on dually flares and tires/wheels that look like an air-shock equipped mid 70's Malibu with a bass boat sparkle metalflake paint job.
