part out v. sell

[cahurst2001]

If one has a driveable street legal titled truck, is it more cost effective to part it out or sell out right?

In this case the truck is a 73 SWB with a mild drop (couple inches), mildly built 350 4 bolt main with roughly 5k miles on a rebuilt motor, 700R4 with bowtie overdrive kit, and 12 bolt 4.10 posi rear end. The cab is pretty sound except for outer cab corners and the interior is incomplete, but mostly restored.

The frame is straight. The body is the main problem. Fenders are rusted through, bed is rusted through in multiple places and not salvageable. All other body parts just need prep and paint.

I can post some pics later on, but just trying to get an idea right now.
