Rust Effect On Value - 2wd

All,

I'm trying to gauge the price I want to sell my 1972 2wd Blazer and am wondering everyone's opinion on how much rust issues can effect the price. My truck has the following problems on original paint:

- Passenger windshield frame rust at the top corner drip rail area. (I have a good one to use for the repair)
- One rocker box has some rust on the bottom in the center. It's not gone by any mean.
- Small spot on the drivers side floor by the kick panel.
- Small spot on the rear passenger floor by the wheel well due to some seam sealer falling out. I replaced the seam sealer to stop the water intrusion.
- About a golf ball size hole in the lower front passenger and front lower quarter.
- Drivers rocker probably ought to be replaced to be right.
- Front well housing and core support area under the battery.

All common issues with these trucks. None of these issues seem large to me. All but the windshield frame I would call easy repairs for someone with metal repair skills. Everything else on the truck is solid. It has original medium blue paint that still looks good for a patina style driver. All original, all there, reliable, CST, PB, PS, A/C. A very nicely optioned truck.

I know it's hard to gauge without seeing it. Don't have pictures yet. I'm going to try and take some tonight.

Are what's describe a deal breaker for getting a good price?? I haven't found another on the internet in similar condition. Heck, there are not many 2wd Blazers for sale.

Thanks for the help.
