'72 Jimmy- estimated value advice

Need some additional opinions on this one. I feel it's a pretty good value but would like to here some nationwide comments. I won't reveal the asking price right now as to not tilt anyone high or low.

SPECS:

'72 GMC Jimmy 4wd, auto, a/c, 3.73 gears, cheyenne package

It hasn't been screwed with much at all except a recent paint job and cut for full din stereo. Very original and complete. Seats and center counsel are in good to excellent condition for the age with original upholstery. Body is very straight. Floor pans and rocker boxes are solid. Motor still has all original accesories intact including heat riser tube, spark plug shields, etc... Newer dual exhaust. Runs and drive well. Steering a little loose as usual. Single wall top is in very good shape. That's the good.

The not so good....dash cut for stereo, amateur rust repair of the rockers and right behind the doors on the quater. Looks like the rust wasn't serious but patches don't look like they'll hold over the long run from the back side. Will need to be redone. Door bottoms also had some rust that wasn't repaired well and the passenger door bottom seem is actually split where the door skin meets the inner door bottom. Driver kickpanel needs a patch. The rear hatch is cracked on the sides and will need repaired soon to prevent becoming unusable.

All in all it looks very presentable as you can see. Looks great from 20'. For my purposes, I would look to drive it as is with maybe just a few maintenance items while I work on my other two projects or possibly pass it on to someone else from the board or ebay and maybe make a buck? (leaning towards keeping it, hard to find a decent optioned Jimmy that is not an offensive color!)

So, fire away. Please tell me what you think a value on this one might be. If I do turn it, will probably not make much on what he said his bottom dollar is but we'll see.
