Based on the photos I have seen and knowing what it will take to put the car back to its original state (even before restoring) I would say $35-$45k and that is assuming all the original parts check out. Right now the authenticity of the paperwork and the condition of the block/heads and verifying all the original parts is unknown. You can always increase your offer but hard to go backwards.

I agree with the value of the race motor but when buying a muscle car I put little value in that and give the seller the option of selling it as a roller. If he won't then I would value the car as what a race type big block prepped driver would sell for while adding a little more due to its provinance.
