My best guess would be 40-45K.
If it is like some of the trucks on ebay, make sure you take a flattering picture in a pastorial setting. Set the price at 70k and see if you get any bites. As with the woodies, there are so few around, the issue is not so much the price as how long are you willing to wait before selling it.
If it was me, I would restore it, then sell it. The project would be fun and in this case, you would probably recoup your invested dollars.
Is rarity a factor for competition at car shows? If that is the case, this could really be a trophy magnet.
Like pedigree dogs, the one with the room full of trophies is more valuable.
One last thought. You will probably be kicking yourself in the pants sometime in the future for selling this truck, so make sure you get a bed full of dough for it and for goodness sakes, post it in the classifieds on this site first.
Just a thought.
Best Wishes
