1987 Chevy Suburban 3/4 Ton 2WD 454 7.4L

[62custom880]

I am trying to decide if I want to take my 3/4 Ton 87 suburban to Florida with me from Upstate NY. It only has 59500 miles on it. It has the 454 with headers and tow package with electric tow brake on it from previous owner. Body is just starting to get some surface rust in quarters and rockers. One of the barn doors is dented by previous owner tring to pull a tree stump with a rope and it did the job but it flew forward and hit the door. Dood still seals fine and electric lock still works. My delima is the amout of fuel it would take to get it down there (1200 plus miles) while pulling a car trailer with my daily driver on it. I can not seem to find a true market value on the truck to determine if I should sell it or keep it and take it to florida with me. A/C works great and so does everything else. The only thing it needs soon is some exhaust work from muffler back.I know the engine alone is worth at least $1000 since it has only 59500 miles on it with headers and runs great with no issues at all. Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks NADA gave me a price but edmonds seems to only go back to 1990. I would like to get more than 1 estimate on price before I make up my mind to sell it or keep it.

Not towing anything, figure 120 gallons, might only be 100. Stay at 55-60mph.
