You very likely have a bad outer CV (constant velocity) joint on the left driveshaft. This is likely caused by a damage or slit boot which allowed the grease to come out and the joint was damaged. If you had caught the boot damage before it starting making noise, you might have been able to replace the grease and the boot, but the clicking says the joint is damaged.

Rebuilt axles are pretty cheap - last time I did one it was in the $60 an axle at NAPA. Salvage parts are going to have old boots that have deteriorated, and so you'll be back fixing it relatively soon.

I'd guess a shop would charge around $150 labor, but that is a guess....Glen
