Location is a big factor.The price for a car in Iowa or Oklahoma has no bearing on a car in N.H. or Maine.In Southern Maine that car will bring a good price from a street rodder.i find the A guys will want to figure out everything it needs,price having it all done,and subtract that from the value of the car.They figure the seller should contribute to the cost of their restoration.The rod guys will just look at it,decide if that body is worth it to them,and pay the price.I sold an unrestored barn coupe to a rodder,the A guys thought because it needed a complete restoration it was worth $3000.The rod guy paid $8000.
