if you get a pic of the data plate we can fill in the blanks about some of the options. price could be a bit high if its a parts car depending how rough it is. You need to know that body parts car be expensive and sometimes hard to find for 65's.floor and trunk pans are available. honestley a rottisere restoration on a 65 holiday is a loosing proposition unless you can do the work yourself. You could have $15k to $20k in paint. My opinion $30k to $35k top shelf

From what im seeing theres been 2 other verified tags with the o in the 5 line and no documentation for what it means so i guess i cant help there. Car looks like its very well optioned but if your looking at from a inverstment standpoint, buy them done and let somebody else do the work. just my opinion and experience because im in the middle of a rottisere resto myself.

Other than maybe the w30s 442s are cars you build because you love it, not so much an investment. There's just not the hype of the Chevelle or GTO, yet it will probably cost more because of lack of availability of body/trim parts.
That being said, here in CA 4 grand will barely get you into a decent starter car. Even ones that are a dime a dozen.
