Barn find, whats it worth?

I just came across what looks to be a 356c, not sure as I cant see the rear of the car yet to confirm.
Story goes something like this, friend of a friend said to me the other day hey I know you are into the p cars and a rancher I know of has an old one sitting behind his house.
I tried as nonchalanly as possible to ask where. I took a drive out today and sure as anything there it is. Paint is wasted but it looks complete and straight.All glass looks good and from the way the car sits I think the motor is in it. i I am going out to knock on the door tomorow but have know idea what this car could be worth.
Thanks in advance, any advice would be great. I it is all really there I will try to buy it on the spot. I will try to get pics soon.

I would not walk in there with an offer, I would ask them what they would want for the car... Just use negotiating 101...

You may go in there with an offer that is 10X more than they wanted in the first place.. This guy might just want this "hunk of junk" out of his yard...

who knows.. Just go in there and ask them what they want for it and start from there...

Good luck and post some pics!

sorry old post and I missed these last few replies. I went to see the car and what a bummer. At first no interest in selling it until I started to walk. Then they wanted to show me the car so I said ok.
First thing the guys starts to tell me is how he started restoring the car 15 some years ago. Said it was full of rust so he got out the torch and started welding himself. Then on to the old POS motor that he took out and threw away. I could not get out the door fast enough.
