we are going to fully restore it. I was wondering on an idea on how much we could sell it for once it is restored.

The value depends on the model. The convertibles are most valuable, followed by the 2-door hardtops.
The post cars, the 4-doors and the wagons are all worth less money.

Do a search on-line to see what other people are asking. Hemmings Motor News is the best source for this info. Remember that few people actually get the entire asking price, especially in today's economy, so allow for discounts in calculating market value.

Uh..... are you looking to make money on this restoration?

Generally, restoring vintage and classic cars will cost you MORE money than what you can recoup on the sale, especially for a less-collectible classic like yours.
(No offense intended, but other classics like Corvettes, '57 Chevys etc would cost about the same to restore as your car, in the same condition, but fetch much more money when sold).
