Worth anything?

I have a '67 F250 that I sort of got "stuck with" after storing it for a friend, who got it for parts then abandoned the project, telling me I could "have it" (translation: I'm abandoning it, do as you wish) It was originally a 360FE 2 barrel , 4 speed 4x4 - the body is falling off - seriously - and the chassis is damaged where a home made grill guard was poorly welded onto the frame horns. The engine is gone, so is the transfer case. The trans is a borg warner top-load style (not a ford "top loader") , 4 speed, I believe with a granny gear. the 4wd setup was divorced style, so it's good for both divorced transfer cases or 2wd setups. it shifts in all 4 gears and reverse easy enough, and seems OK, though I can't road test it for obvious reasons. the front axle is a dana, a 44 or 44hd, not sure casting numbers are a bit rough. it's a low pinion closed knuckle style and the manual steering gear box is there and seems OK. Front leafs look good. Hubs are there, one works, the other seems like it could need a rebuild, as it won't engage. Brake hardware is there, that's about all I can tell. Rear axle is a dana 60, one busted shock mount, drums look shot, springs OK.
Haven't figured out the gear ratios, but she seems LOW - LOW - LOW, a real puller.
The glass is all good, I've already removed it and set it aside where it's safe. The rear window is a slider!

Do I have anything worth selling, or do I just call the junkyard and be done with it?

If the axle gears really are very low (high numerically) then they are worth a bit to somebody building a big-tired 4x4.
Vintage glass, especially vintage windshields are always in demand.
Body trim pieces are also sellable, especially if the truck has an optional trim package.
Probably the whole thing may be worth a few hundred $ to the right person. depending on where you live, you might persuade someone to haul the whole thing away for a bit of money through an ad on Craigslist.
