Cost of rusty project or parts car

The rust and engine condition questions need to be answered before a real value can be determined. If there is no rot in the floors, trunk, quarters, or fenders, and I could get it to fire up, I'd say it's worth a grand. I'd come in at $800 and be ready to add to that a bit if needed. And I agree with several other opinions, nothing says I'm ready to deal, right here right now, like showing up with a truck and trailer. Good luck, and let us know how it goes!
