I need to sell a vehicle, but have two to choose from. I am having a hard time deciding. I have the 72 Chevy C10, LWB step side, and a 68 VW beetle. Both run good, both have issues but can be driven daily. The truck is a gas hog, but then it's near 350hp make it great fun to drive. The beetle is better on fuel but seems to require more maintenance to keep it on par. I'd love to keep both but something has to go to help fund tuition for my daughter till the lottery fund picks it up.

What ever will fetch the most money either one of those can still be found but the truck is less of a toy in this day and age you always can use a pickup.

I'd sell the Beetle. You could put a 283 or 307/2bbl in your truck to make it better on gas.

I am a Vanagon owner in need of advise. I am keeping the Vanagon and some of the funds from the sale will be directed into improvements.

To be honest I am considering selling both now. I have so much I'd like to do to/for my Van.

sorry, didn't catch the 85 GL :oops:
I would say sell the both and get your van in tip top shape.

Sell both and then you won't second guess yourself!
