Wrecker worth ? Video added

Alright money's needed and I'm considering selling off the wrecker . It's got a clear title , gasser , runs and drives , lights , boom works right , some rust .
Needs - radiator leaks , paint not so hot , front winch not hooked up ( but has new cable and pto shaft , but not on it ) .
What's the value on this ? I may be interested in partial trades ( stepdeck trailer , diesel tractor , ??? )
Is $4,500 out of line ? I've watched what alot of them sell for but you never know . So what do you think ? If it's not worth about that then it's better to keep it and work around the money issues . I use tractor trailers more and this mostly sits ! Ideas ???

Looks pretty good in the pics. Being a gasser is going to devalue it some. Even so, I'd say 4500 is a good price for a running M62 in decent shape.

If I had the money or a way to get it,I would be all over it like a politician on a bribe,Cop on a donut,Murphy on Wreckerman,mangus on a truck sticking mudhole........I don't care if it cost me 1MPG.I sure don't buy my army trucks for the fuel ecconomy.If I want to take it long distances to a rally I will hire a semi to haul it and drive my more fuel efficient vehicle(ranger or deuce) and just unload and put on display.2bucks a mile is still cheaper than driving some trucks and you can get 1 or 2 on a semi.

I just don't know if I could find 45 people willing to gamble $100 , maybe if the tickets were $50 ? I have a better one with the flag I'll see if I can copy it , it's from the rear a friend took it .

sell em for $50 or $100 whichever you like, just tell people ahead of time, if you don't sell enough you're not going to raffle the truck, and return the money to people. It's kind of a hassle, but could be worth it to you and whom ever wins!!

Just a thought!!!

Just trying to get a way to fairly draw a number would be interesting . Maybe go off the last digits of the lotto or something like that so noone could claim it was rigged .

That could work. Does MO have a daily 3 digit drawing? You can buy raffle tickets real cheap, just get a roll and separate out the ones from 000 to 099. If you sell all 100 of them for even $45 you would have your $4500 and could use the last two digits of the daily drawing for the winner...Ex...396 is the number...096 wins the truck.
