value of (almost rolling) chassis BO29

I know of a verified BO automatic car . shell only , verified dash VIN . known history of car since new , previously cut up and butchered real bad . original roof , quarters , doors , no stamped numbers left in trunk area or rad support .no fender apron tag does have dash VIN rust free floor and torque boxes grafted into car , not much else there , No glass No Fiberglass No Interior No K member . just a bare shell . i was semi serious about buying the car . it belongs to a friend . I felt the value it would have taken for the owner to sell it was approx 60 to 70 g ( Canadian funds ) but when he heard that figure he said "not a chance" . I feel that realistically I cant make it a financially feasible project given that I basically have to source and buy everything for this car . I really want to get a BO or LO car and a rolling chassis project is probably the only way Ill be able to make it work financially , that is if I dont have to source and buy 95% of the unique parts and 100% of the driveline after my initial investment .... Am I mistaken here ? is a bare shell worth that kind of money ? ( and I mean real bare ).
