Hey Guys;
I'm in the process of possibly parting out a 78 Executive Class A. It has a 440 Dodge gas motor along with the rest of stuff in an RV of that era. My question is how much is this stuff worth. The motor, refrig, AC roof unit, gen, etc.? All items work.

Thanks Guys

20 cents a pound. I tried parting out a 78 dodge class c a year or so ago. Offered to pull the 440 4bbl big block for $200.00 no takers.
did the craigslist thing with a make offer. Nothing. $500.00 from the salvage yard. No muss no fuss

what ever the junk yard will give you if they will take it. You will save lots of time and hassle.

Good point however, I was thinking the 440 would be good for someone restoring an old truck. Not a muscle car.

Old Bisquit makes the point. I'd take any offer I got if they'd pull it out themselves. Heck, my time's worth zip today, so I'd even pull it!

Try doing a CL or Ebay search for the parts you want to sell, see if there is anyone selling something similar to get an idea of it's value.
You can probably sell the 440 engine/transmision.
The rest is questionable. Old-Biscuit is right, it's 35 years old.
If there is a RV salvage yard in your area maybe they would be interested. I wouldn't expect to get much for the unit.

Pennies.......too a few bucks

Stuff may work BUT it's from a 1978 model rig.......35 yrs. old
