That's usually the case. 

You wouldn't dream of restoring that Chev if you were in your right mind. It's potential is as a ratrod donor body. Get it structurally sound and put it on another chassis. Leave the patina as is, just a wax job to seal it. There's a thousand dollars value just in the front guards and grille. Any maple leaf Chev is rare and very sought after no matter what condition.

If the Chev was a roller, he'd get $2,500 to $3,000 in a heartbeat. Being on four rolling wheels is a big selling factor. $100 car trailer hire vs hiring a crane truck.
