All depends on location, location, location, overall condition of the body, rust, glass all good? Options the cab has like a/c and pop open side windows versus fixed? Rear slider, interior color, carpet versus vinyl? 4 spd or auto.....
Could be $50, could be $500+ all depends on that the buyer is looking for.
Start high on the price cause you can always come down, to make the sell. If you start low you can not go up.

what happened is as original truck was in storage and i was working on replacement cab. original truck and all other parts were destroyed in fire. customer has now dumped cab in my hands and i need to recoup some of my losses.
I'm 30 miles south of Chicago on the Indiana border.
There was one up here in northern Illinois that was totally rust free and had some new body parts that was listed for quite some time for $1000. Not sure if it ever sold or the guy decided to finish the project but I can't find it anymore.
Depending on what your cost is, I'd list it a little above your labor and materials and see what kind of offers you get and just sell it for what you can and have the customer cover the rest. If your cost is like $1500 or something though, I really doubt youd get anyone biting on that. It sucks all that stuff of his got destroyed, but you shouldn't have to be the one to take a hit from that. Especially if he had insurance.
Customer has washed his hands of project do to fire...no ins. on vehicle since it was torn down to bare frame n drive train. There was an initial deposit but that money was towards material twds cab.
