most vintage bikes, and vintage MTBs in particular are not worth much $ at all.
if you really just want to get it out of your space, put it up on ebay with no reserve and you'll know the value, and be rid of it. Unless someone has a real hard on for that exact bike, I'd wager you won't be able to crack $500. You can buy collectible Italian framed 10 speeds with Campy "Eroica" bikes all day long for $1000-$1200 and that seems to be a much more active collector market than vintage MTBs.
If you like to ride still, an alternative for you is to put some drop bars on it, skinny tires and it will make a good mixed surface gravel grinder machine. That's what I've done with my vintage Breezer MTB.
