Question Is this worth saving?

Got my cab divorced from the frame tonight and I'm SO glad I came up with a new cab recently. The original was 10x worse than I originally thought and would have been a nightmare to repair.

But having said that, the top of the cab (really, from about 6" above the floor and up) is immaculate. No rust through or even bubbling anywhere above the windshield, firewall, etc. The very worst is in the second pic and that's merely surface rust. I hate to sell it for scrap if someone can use it, but is there any real market for the good parts of this cab? If so, fine. I'd sell it to anyone who wants it for the same as I'd get at the scrapyard -- if I could have it gone in less than a month, that is. But if not, I want this thing outta here. It's useless to me and I really don't want to upset the neighbors by having a pair of cabs in the driveway. (And no, I'm not quite done stripping it. The glass and interior remnants will be coming out tomorrow.)

So do you think I should advertise and try to sell it or just send it to the crusher without feeling guilty?

Thanks,
Brent
