The motor is original, but no paperwork on if it was ever overhauled. There's missing parts inside the truck. My instinct is telling me this is about an 8k truck. But then again you take that with a grain of salt because I have never bought anything this old.
I would have actually said between $4000 and $6000... With nicks, missing pieces, you are closer to a number 4 than 3. Get an old cars price report, there is always a condition guide in it. Your truck actually sounds very close to a number 4 vehicle. Value at $4100, and then you'll deduct for manual shift and so on. Good luck!
