How much could I sell my Ugly 69 3/4 ton chev truck for???

I have decided to sell my truck, or trade it for a Honda or Toyota car, because I need something with good gas mileage. Anyway, the truck is a 69 3/4 ton chevy. New brakes all around, new wheel cylinders up front. New rebuilt edlebrock 600 carb, used edelbrock performer intake manifold, new spark plugs and wires, new alternator. Seats out of a 70 to 72 blazer. The engine was rebuilt about 36,000 miles ago. It has a small oil leak somewhere, also the turbo 400Trammy was rebuilt about 26,000 miles ago. the body is straight. It really needs a paint job. The driver side rocker panel needs to be but out and a new one put in, it has the holes in the body from the moldings, and also the holes are still there from the ugly original mirrors. I bought it from the original owner, it came with the original paperwork, sales receipt, etc.. Could you guys help me figure out what I could sell it for??, I am desperate. Thanks in advance. P.S. there is a grinding type sound coming from the rear of the truck, I will hopefully beable to get that fixed before I sell it. That is if I can figure it out..

Is your '69 a 2WD or 4X4? If it's a 4X4, I may want it . . . .

That 400Trammy has to be rare
Sounds like you could get $1000 for it, knowing that you want to sell it fast. I am sure you could get a lot more if you waited for the right buyer.

take a look in your local classifieds to get an idea of price because price really depends on the area. check the differential oil level for the grinding sound. i had a cadillac that would grind when you you would take off

the carrier bearing is shot, so while driving, the driveshaft is really loose, and rubbing.
