A clean shortbed down here goes for $2500 to $3000 depending on what is done to it, what motor it has, mileage, and most important what kinda rust it has. It depends on what part of the country he is in, but $1700 could be a good deal.

Ya 1700 seems about right if its in nice condition. Just do what I did get a 78 threefiddy for 400 bucks with a slight fender problem lol

Picked up my 79 f-150 for 500 bucks :D But it was a co-worker who was moving and wanted it gone.

I don't think he is looking in Okinawa... Now up here in Kyushu, they go for quite a bit more....
