What are they worth in good running working order, not show room quality?
Where they used in the Korean War?

Yes, they were used in the Korean War.
Can't comment on their worth, but I would love to have one.

They are harder to find but unfortunately, generally, worth less than a multi-fuel.

The one a buddy of mine is looking to selling/parting with (not parting out) with was originally a tanker but has a standard deuce bed on it now. So its not original.

They have a very cool sound to them. Unfortunately, they are also very hungry. If you get it cheap enough it would offset fuel costs if you don't drive it much.

I was thinking of making it a parade truck/ museum piece, repaint and decal in Korean War ear, and put a couple VFW Korean vets in the truck and let them drive it for parades, with me in the m818 right be hind them of coarse.

I enjoy driving my Gasser M35 more than I do the Whistler M35A2. I also use the Gasser for chores around the house. Mainly because I can talk and listen to people further away than the end of my arms.
However, as mentioned above. They are about double the cost to go down the road as a multifuel. Even more expensive if you mix your own multi fuel fuel. Mine is used for local parades and stuff around the house only. Sometimes, I drag it behind the multifuel to a parade further away.
Worth? What ever somebody is willing to pay. Which is a constantly moving target.
