My '85 Toyota SR5 - What's it Worth?

My 1985 Toyota SR5 4x4 extra cab has been stored for the past 15 months given no current need or driver
So I was debating whether to just keep storing it or maybe consider selling it...

It's a 1 owner truck
161k miles
4 cylinder 5 speed
Most here already know: last year of solid front axle & first year of EFI

Original factory items:
chrome wheels
chrome nerfs
brush guard (uncertain if it's stainless or aluminum)
chrome bumper with integrated trailer hitch

Interior is in excellent condition

Warn premium hubs

Always garaged
Never abused or off-roaded, probably a shame considering the truck it is

Regular maintenance performed like clock work

Shortly before storing it replaced:
clutch & pressure plate
fuel pump & fuel filter
starter
brake master cylinder & rear brakes (all the parts)

Yesterday, I called my friend who is sales manager at local Toyota used car lot and asked what he thought it was worth. He said it is definitely not a "book value" vehicle and to find a Toyota group on the web where someone may have an idea of value.

So, if anyone has an idea of what my truck is worth or knows of a site where I may find a source to determine market value please chime in

If I've posted in the wrong sub-forum please move my thread to the correct location

Thanks!

Without pics this thread is pointless speculation.
