$3-5k for one that needs a lot of work?
$5-8 for Maybe running but intact with unrepaired rust?
$12-19 for repaired rust daily driver?
>$20-25 for average frame off
$25k-50k for high quality restore depending on detail and numbers matching vs replacement parts?

Then I'll know what's appropriate when i find a good deal to jump on it?
Looks like you have a good understanding of "deep pockets" those estimates are spot on.....
I bought a complete '71 that needed a lot of work..like everything...... for $3K
This '70 had all the body work done, paint, a new lift kit, and new wheels and tires.....upwards of $15K.............
It needs complete interior redo....and I have all the components for a LS1/4L60E/241C swap in the future..
right now I just drive, and enjoy it....
