It's a beauty, but at least $1000-$1500 too high. Even though rare, the nickle plating knocks the bejeebers out of the value. As Dwight said, it is well worth stripping and restoring (assuming all matching), but unless you just wanted the sheer satisfaction of saving a rare piece, the current price makes restoration prohibitively expensive.
