looking for idea of value

[ronebee]

I have an opportunity to purchase a 1968 ss396 elcamino, 396,turbo 400 a/c car, pb/ps/front disc, motor rebuilt, born with motor, trans and rear end, all underhood a/c stuff missing, motor and tranny out of car and front end off vehicle. Car was up and running, painted matador red. This guy bought and drove home with intention of taking color back to stock color so he took motor out and had rebuilt and started on body work. Frame is strong with some surface rust and rear quarters are bubbling, could be repaired or replaced. Anybody wanna give me a ball park figure on value as is? I can buy car for under 5K and I'm wondering if I should. Car has 8 inch ralleys. Going through a divorce so has to sell. Any advice would be helpful, thank you.
