What's my truck worth with KDP damage?

I have a 1996 Dodge Ram 2500 12 valve Club cab, long bed, 231k miles, white, fair condition. I've used it as a personal vehicle as well as to pull a light utility trailer for landscaping services. It has a ranch hand rear bumper, gooseneck ball, 80% tread on A/T tires, cloth seats, some scratches on exterior and medium wear on the interior mainly on the drivers seat. It's been a great truck but the killer dowel pin took it down to a "not running" condition. I'm wanting to sell it "as is" without having to repair it myself. What's a ballpark range of what it should sell for? I'll have pictures in a few days.

Most of it will depend on what was damaged and how much it will cost to fix...
Broken 5k-7k maybe?
Not sure, pics will help on value too...

5 to 7 is fair money for a truck that is running, 3 to4k with kdp damage tops. this truck has 220k on it and a 2wd auto.

Only down side is 2wd, auto...(besides the damage)
Those miles are not high, and its a club cab...
Not as desireable as the short bed CC, but 5-7k is low for a decent running truck....

i paid 5100 including ttl for my 98 with 220k on it right out of the auto trader with a fresh tranny and cold air but a reg cab. i have bought more than a few cummins with 200k or more. 2wd autos are on the bottom of the price scale.

I am trying to sell my 95 4x4 for $9,000......and it runs good. If I dont sell it soon I am taking all the good stuff and will lower the price. NADA shows it right around $9900 as it sits. People have no clue about cummins motors and what they can do and how long they will last!

What's my best venue to sell it through? running or not. This website? Ebay? Autotrader? If it's not running, I'm gonna have a hard time selling it through the paper or a place like that. Do you think anybody will want it not running? Should I just plan on fixing it before I attempt to sell it?

post up your location & put it for sale here.

there's guy who are looking for used CTD's but don't want to pay the full price.

those guys are on the forums and know what the KDP repair takes.

I got a buddy in Omaha looking, dunno if he needs 4wd though.
