Possible value?

Thinking about selling my truck since I don't seem to have the time/drive to finish and drive it. I have a 78 f150. Well as far as the title says. Pretty sure it was actually a body swap since title says 2wd with 351 but it's actually 4wd with a 400. It runs and drives. Fixed leaks cleaned out the 38 gal tank. Replaced fuel sending unit. Replaced water pump. Timing chain. Timing chain cover (pain in the *** to finally find) and other random stuff. Just wondering what they might go for since here in Vegas I can't find comperables. There's no real rust other since a little surface here and there since it's been in dry weather

I am in the Los Angeles area, so my opinion is just that.
I would guess that you would be lucky to get $2500-$2800.

A body swap.
The title of the vehicle matches the vin on the frame, not body, so you legally don't own that truck.

Out in my neck of the midwest that is a F250 not a F150 (due to its 8 lug axle configuration) and looks to be a 1000 to 2500 dollar truck.

Paper title vi# goes to the frame stamped #, NOT the warrenty plate riveted to the dvrs door edge.
