I sold my '78 a year ago for about us$20k. It was in running condition with a good Cummins but pretty rough interior and coring deterioration in the FB. I didn't go anything to prep it for sale.

I agree that if you can't determine the operational status the price needs to be pretty low. It could be a lot of work and $$ to make everything right. Also agree that insurance may be a challenge until work is completed. Not for the faint of heart, but these are decent boats when operational.
