This question comes up time & time again.
The answer remains the same.
It's worth whatever your prepared to pay, regarless of what model or condition.
Some are genuine bargains, others see you coming.
One constant is: a car sitting in a shed or a paddock is worth f#ckall unless someone wants it.......
Well my friends are gone & my hair is grey, I ache in the places where I used to play.

If it has been sitting for 5 years, It is going to need quite a bit of work, and you will have to take into consideration what it will cost to get it
roadworthy.
Rats can get stuck into the wiring, brake wheel cylinders can seize, and lines can corrode, from the contaminated fluid, engine internals can suffer
if the proper precautions were not carried out, ECT ECT.
I dont want to discourage you from buying it and restoring it, but make sure you assess the complete condition of the car and the estimated work
and cost to get it back on the road, and use this to base the purchase cost.
It is very easy to pay too much for the car AS IS and after the resto is completed, it has cost more than the car is worth, if it is a keeper it is
not so bad, but if it was ment as a money earner, it is a failure.
