front clip worth?

I have this lead on a 71/72 walk away... everything forward of the firewall... i mainly want the grill from it. the guy said i can have it for $300 now is that a good deal? he told me it has been in storage since the early 80's and is show quality sheet metal. so i am mainly wonder is it worth the money to buy it take the grill for myself and sell the rest off to some one eles? he said he might do a part trade for my stock spindles and brake set up plus around $100 for the whole clip.

Just looking for input from u guys to see if it is worth my wild to buy it whole or just get the grill from it


Thanks
Rat

Not having seen this, and going on the assumption that it's rust-free, straight, complete with hood rad support, and inner fenders, and the grille is something you want, then yes it's definately worth $300.

Keep in mind the parts you're thinking of sre-elling are large and expensive/difficult to ship. So unless you have a local buyer or are willing to ship large items, you might want to reconsider.
