Part values

Hey guys, I have not had any luck selling my 79 f150 and it looks like the probability of me tearing it apart to sell it piece by piece is becoming more likely by the day. My questions to you is what you think the potential values of some of these items may be depending on what you may expect to pay or have paid for these.

351m, roughly 150,000 miles, doesnt smoke, very strong, could use alittle tune up, holly carb and edelbrock intake manifold (no idea on the cfms)

4spd manual trans with nothing wrong

np205 transfer case with nothing wrong

9" rear end (not sure of gears) serviced, cleaned and painted

High pinion dana 44 front, serviced, cleaned, painted

Sliding rear glass window, no cracks or chips

Doors, good glass, panels, need little repair along bottom

Windshield, no cracks or chips

Steering box, perfectly fine

Dash, no cracks in plastic

Insturnment cluster

Great looking bench seat (previous owner said it was re-upholstered a number of years ago)

Im just not sure of the value or worth of any of these items. I would like to sell the truck as a whole, but since the body is in such horrible condition, I can't seem to get rid of her, even with a low price tag. So parting it out might become the only option in the near fuure. Any input would be greatly apreciated. Thanks

Check the classifieds on this site, they might be of help, also ebay to see what prices are being asked.

Check your local penny saver/low income buy and sell paper. Those will give you an idea of what local going prices are.

Thanks guys, I apreciate the info and suggestions. Hopefully I can just sell the truck as a whole and not have to part it out, it would be a PITA right now. I'll go through the classifieds and see what I come up with, thanks again!

The body and the bed are no good, especially the cab.
