Definetly a late 40's Japanese bike the Rod front brake and rear bub brake date it. My quess is it Marabushi. I have now clue as to value but because of the condition it will likely cost much more than it is worth to to restore it unless you can most of the work your self. A full repaint and chrome of the parts could run over $1000 if properly done by a good restoration expert. Plus the issues of the missing chain gaurd rear fender and rack which could make full restoration nearly impossible.
