Dave, there are followers for cars like these, so don't fret. If it's a solid body and a roller it can be more. The restored value average I have seen myself has been around 7500 or so. So most people don't want to put a lot out unless a labor of love. Many racers are going for the lighter older a bodies now to, since they can build an engine, kinda like what you want built. Usually a car like that , assembled, needing restored with a v8 is up to 3k, but they are all together and fairly solid
