Ran 39 ford for sale ad in HEMMINGS and got 4 interested contacts in less than 30 days. First caller took it. Goes to show if you price it right and use HEMMINGS it works. Jon Laing

You're right Jon. Hemmings has worked for a long time.

I think pricing it right is the real key.

I've just listed a 46 Chevy 3/4 ton pickup on Hemmings. I wonder if I've priced it to sell. I'd appreciate anyone that's willing to review the ads for other 46 Chevy pickups and compare them with mine and give me your opinion about my asking price and whether I've priced it to sell. Go to http://www.hemmings.com/ and search for "1946 chevy pickup." Mine is the only 3/4 ton listed.

I haven't looked at Hemmings for about 5 years (about when I got involved in these forums). That's probably a mistake, as I believe there are a lot of folks out there that don't like computers. Thanks for bringing this up.

I saw it advertised and liked it. Too far away for me, though. :-)

There is an on line version too. Back in the day, that was all we had to find parts & services.

Old Henry, that seems like a fair price and maybe a little low, given the prices of most of the other trucks on the site. As the saying goes, you can always come down, but you can't go up in price.

Thanks for the input. I've had it at $19,900 for two weeks without a nibble and need to move it quick so lowered it today $2,000 to see if I can get any interest. We'll see.

Thanks again for the input.
