Default What's this worth with the mods done to it?

I don't know which section to put this in and I figured I could get some good input in this section as to what my truck might be worth if I choose to sell it. Here are the specs on it:

2000 Chevy Silverado 2wd stepside
Color: Pewter
Mods to engine: LT headers, off road y pipe, 224 duration cam, prc gold valve springs, hardened push rods, 8.1L injectors, cold air intake, dynomaxx bullet muffler, 3" QTP electric cutout.
3/6 drop
FBI roll pan
class 3 hidden hitch.
The truck has a/c, power windows, power locks, cloth seats.

I'm just curious as to what I could expect to get out of a vehicle like this. I realize prices will vary depending on locations, but I'm just interested in a general idea of value.

3/6 Drop and a hidden hitch? I'd decide one or the other. Performance or Practicality?

All I pull with the truck is a 3 seater waverunner. I didn't make this thread for people to tell me to decide between going fast or pulling a trailer. I want input as to what my truck would be worth if I chose to sell it.

Not at all telling you what to do. Just seeing what direction you were going in. I don't tow a thing and I have a 2/4 Belltech drop on 20's.

how many miles on it? Either way I would expect you would get right around what Edmunds says it's worth bone stock, and maybe even less. Very very few people are going to pay extra for a truck that has performance modifications. Especially with a case like this.

95,000 miles on it. I don't expect to get a lot for the truck nor all the money that I've invested in it out of it. I never have sold a truck with engine modifications, so I needed some direction on pricing it.

i cant say either way... depends on who you find to sell it...

I do know this, the truck and SUV market is at an all time low... in fact, Galpin ford, the largest ford dealership in the country, just happens to be in my neck of the woods, just released an add...

"1/3 off 2008 Ford F150s... over 400 in stock at this discount"

30k truck for 20k... so take that into consideration...

There is a local Dodge dealership here advertising 50% off MSRP.

If you find an individual that is into mods you will get more. Otherwise, the bottom has fallen out of the truck and SUV market.

just about impossible to sell a truck around where I live. No one wants to pay 4.xx$ a gallon to get 15 mpg. Everyone is going the car route...better off holding onto it and driving it man. You will lose your *** trying to sell it. That's if anyone even stops to look at it. Best of Luck!
