Sounds like the sound my '77 made when one of the CV joints started to go.
An old trick is to remove and reverse the CV axle.  This moves the pressure 
to a different spot on the CV, and can solve the problem until a new wear 
spot develops, which can be a very, very long time.  Repacking wouldn't 
hurt, either, especially if the boot is torn or their is indication that 
grease has been leaking out or contaminants getting in.  You can get CV 
joint grease just about anywhere.  Messy job, but not difficult.  I would 
definately try these solutions before replacing.  I did this on my '77, and 
when I sold it about 15,000 miles later the noise had still not come back.
