Default 1969 MK2 two door Cortina - How much is it worth?

I've been contemplating selling my corty for a few months now, It has barely been driven in the past 4 years and is starting to rust away.

The whole car will need a tune up (obviously) and i have to replace the floor pan drivers side and drivers side boot tire well (battery in boot causing rust)

Other than that, Its been a great little car, Mild worked 1600, dual 40mm webber carbies, 5 speed celica gear box, 3.77 open diff in car, also have a 3.77 locker and a spare (i believe its a 4.44) diff as well.

Lotus front end, near new shocks, lowered and leveled, still standard rear end.

Interior, gemini buckets (with head rests) in black velour, standard rear seat, (68) GT gauge cluster, taco (not working due to electronic ignition) and metric speedo. GT centre console.

Exterior. Car was repainted about 8 years ago in 2pac, minor rust in tire wells, drivers tire well completely stuff, Bonnet batch drivers side faded, a few dings in paint work but still in good order. Definately wouldnt need a full respray, would be limited too bonnet, front guard (looks like trolley damage) and rear panel (tire well again).

Pictures (don't have pictures of the damage unfortunately)

Upgraded rear brakes (mark 2 escort if memory serves) up from 7 inch to 9 inch drums










Interior missing centre console in favour of extinguisher



Thanks guys, I no it needs some work before i sell, and honestly would prefer to keep it, but with debts climbing and income dropping, I've gotta say fair well to some things.

:(

Did you end up having a spare rack? Is it rear mount?
