1979 redline proline

I bought this off a TGIF going out of business auction. I had one like it when I was a kid that was all beat up... This one doesn't look like it ever been road. Basically it's museum quality. I have photos but I'm not sure how to post on here. I intended to keep it but now I'm seeing frames alone going for over $800.
I'm only in the whole bike for $350. For the right price I'd be willing to let it go.

I hate to steer you to another site but bmxmuseum.com might be more helpful on this one

My only point of reference is my 1981 Supergoose. I follow values on it and it seems to hover around $500-$800 for a complete bike. I don't know if a Redline Proline would bring more or less but given the condition you state, I'd shoot for the high side of this range.

I would think $800 would be high for just a frame. I would think based on recent prices I have seen $700-800 for a complete bike nicely setup with race level vintage correct components and $400-500 for the frame set.
