Class C Construction Hackery

Based on your description, I think the going rate is $1 (One Dollar) for each. That is because of the cost of towing them and most often the new owner will put a lot of time and some cash into the restoration, just to give up and call a junk yard to haul away the chassis, leaving the owner with a dismantled half rotten house on his property with the difficult task of disposing of it.

If one of those chassis is that good and can be made into a very reliable vehicle with minimal investment, I think you would be much better converting that chassis into the box truck you need.

Every once in a while, someone on this forum will buy an old class C to restore. They all give up with only one fellow who was successful in completion. That one fellow did it right, doing it to last. But he put so much into it, so much more work trying to reuse unique parts specific to that rig. It was way too much work. I think it would be so much easier to build a new rig from scratch than trying to reuse junk-status components.

Then there is the concern over mold in between the walls which is another issue.

Unless you have nothing better to do with your time, and have no trouble with walking away after putting in so many hours and money into a dead end project, then buy them for $1 each. $2 each is one dollar too much.

Sorry for the "downer" reply, but that is my opinion.
