The original split rims w/caps and drive line also.

You could bring the heavy/messy (or heavy/cleaned) parts to a swap meet at a truck show and maybe sell axle, wheels, rims, brake parts (if they are usable).
Also, it is hard to suggest prices without knowing condition. Usable axle and wheels and drums/brake-parts only have any non-scrap value if they are usable. It would take a desperate person to buy those parts sight-unseen.
Good/clean wheels/rims might sell @$20-$50, depending on condition and whether they can be picked-up or have to be shipped.

The basic parts are usually there, when you bring home a stray, you just have to rebuild them, same as one would have to do to the parts from your truck. dg

It sounds like you're butchering up an original-condition truck to make a hotrod, and expecting the scrap to be some sort of gold mine. It isn't likely to happen. Jerry
