Not much, I'm afraid. And especially for a '79 model pump, which was relatively low performance due to emissions. If you can tell the person who buys it that you KNOW it's good, and they trust you, then maybe $75-$100. If it's been overhauled and has Wes Ingram's overhaul stamp on it, (and you know it's good) then more. 74 model pumps go for more because they have the highest performance 3D cam of any of the SPICA pumps. Typically, though, pump owners came into the pump via a non-running parts car and have no idea if the pump is operational or not. In addition, they typically don't even know how to do a cursory check for obvious failure. In that case, you have to assume that it's good for a couple parts only, and then only to someone who knows how and is willing to disassemble it. I buy some pumps like that, but I'll only go $20 or less for junk pumps. Pumps that have sat derelict are likely to have internally rusted or badly corroded unless they were carefully pickled and stored. Shipping is fairly expensive due to the weight. Shipping of the whole system is very expensive. The TA probably has the most value (about $50) if it tests good. Unfortunately, a lot of SPICA stuff like fuel pipes get tossed in the trash.
That said, if you happen to get to the right buyer, then they might take the whole thing, but not likely.
The webers and manifold, on the other hand, usually draw a good price on ebay . . . . $400+.
