Mark,
You have already got the answer to the most important question....is the transmission OK. These are prone to freezing (this GM Hydramatic is water cooled), or failure due to abuse (overloading). If the transmission works properly now, it will probably continue to do so if you don't abuse it.
There can be considerable discussion about fluid to put in tranny...but it boils down to, put whatever it is working with now back in it. This could be non-detergent motor oil or transmission fluid. Do not mix the two, or change from one to the other.
As for what it is worth....that is up to you. They sell from 500 to 5000 dollars, depending on condition.
Hope this helps,
David
