IMHO the current bid of $202.50 or the current price for steel scrap is about what it's worth. Parting it out might bring a few dollars more if the trim and major components are decent and decently removed but to get that car in any kind of driveable shape would cost far more than one could ever expect to get back. With the main structural roof elements gone and the rust everywhere else, I think if the guy was smart, he'd remove the windshield before it gets broken (if not already), sell that, drivetrain, trim, dash and let the rest go. Not even sure the sheetmetal would be good enough to be worth the freight. If the gas tank is in decent condition, that alone might be worth more than the rest.
