Default 1997 12valve cummins

What do you think a 1 owner 1997 dodge extended cab completely stock, 12 valve cummins is worth with 73,000 original miles. Not a spot of rust because it has been garage kept all its life. I believe manual shift. Thanks for your time. Not a diesel owner yet, but possibly soon.

Wow thanks guys!!! All I was looking for was a rough number. Is $8000.00 a good deal?

Thanks fellas, I figured it would be a good deal. I have never owned a diesel, but have always wanted to.

Looked at it today, it is an automatic. Is the automatic problematic or would it be fine. I did the math and he only put 5000 miles on it a year. He also has a brand new 5th wheel sitting in the barn. How much could I get for that if I sell it on say, craigslist?
