Hello I come from a GM family but lover of all cars but have special spot for original big three. I know good, uncommon, rare, original, etc of many vehicles but wanted to know what "F150 LOVER" would pay for a 1996 F150 XLT extended cab 5.0 all original with less than 60,000 miles on from one owner and not customized or molested.

 

Your post isn't clear, but the answer to your question is: whatever the buyer & seller agree on, like anything else. There are trucks that match your description that aren't worth $500, and there are people who will pay $60K for other trucks that match your description.

A truck that is truly "all original" is worthless because many parts NEED to be changed to keep a vehicle running & driving for more than ~3 years. You're talking about a 30-year-old pickup that wasn't particularly valuable when it was new. It was the most-common vehicle in the world at that time, so it wasn't rare or sought-after, so they didn't get treated like Ferraris & Lambos - they got treated like inexpensive pickup trucks. And if the tires, oil, coolant, brake fluid, spark plugs, wipers, bulbs, and brakes are original, the truck is scrap metal at best. If it really only has 60Kmi on it, then the lack of replacement parts would explain why it didn't run any more, and why the owner didn't bother customizing it.

 

All depends on where you live and what the used car market is like there. Crazy prices in this part of VA. Low mileage (60-80K), rust free (really no rust) and garage kept are going for mid teens, the turbo diesels are twice that.

You will need repairs, and very few people have the practical knowledge, patience and so on to deal with them. $60-125 an hour to learn old technology.

Replacing one you sell will cost you dearly. But both are much cheaper than recently used or new....Then you are talking $55k to $100K. and they will still need repairs.
