"if i had a nickle" or lets play "whats it worth"

[NEWFISHER]

I see the posts and usually think "have you done the research in your area, ebay etc." And then usually respond with a fair figure based on what I have seen on Craigs, thebay and local shows here in the NW. I am now that guy.

This 51 ish GMC caught my eye and I realy don't pay much attention to the rat rod style, but I've been known to purchase weird stuff for no reason before. Its got great patina, some rust in the usual plaaces and ok in spots that are usually suspect. The rest of the body is straight, grille bumpers etc.Interior is straight , clean and seat is good. It has a freshly re ringed and resealed 283, 4sp, 4:10 posi that sounds kiler with the fender exit caps un corked. Its bagged in the rear with manual fill but has a tank. Front is, well scary. Speedway dropped axle, home brew steering and rough rider air shocks to unlay frame to drive it. At best it needs a car clip or a IFS kit to safely enter the freeway. After seeing the mass hackery I asked the owner first "how's it handle at 65"? He says "65? Never seen 65" we laughed and I know he's honest. If it didn't have a cool stance, faded star on the door, franken welds or other stuff I find attractive right now with Fall aproaching and a project needed, I would pass. But, my wife just got back from a vaca, got a tan and a new purse so she gave me the green light to start on something. Sorry ,only one pic. It was one of those "hey that's cool, fumble my phone out of my pocket and 2 days later think I should own it"

Thanks for the ideas.....
What's it worth?
