Default Looking to sell numbers matching 1959 270hp/283 4-sp, what is fair market value?

Would appreciate your insights into what a numbers matching 1959 270hp/283ci 4-speed solid un-restored driver quality is pulling in the market today? Engine and transmission are numbers matching down to the radiator, with the exception of the ignition coil and generator, even has original rebound straps. Roman Red with White coves, Red interior and Black soft top. Paint is a 10-footer with light peeling in a few sports, but is presentable and shines real nice. Interior is like new. I am the 3rd owner. Looking to sell the car and want to set a fair price for a reasonably quick sale. Car has tremendous pedigree and needs to go to a good home to enjoy as a survivor/driver or a great candidate for a full restoration. I have attached a few pictures. I would appreciate your fair market pricing guidance. Please PM me.

Moving "what's it worth?" Thread to General discussion area.

When you decide on an asking price, then please post an ad in the For Sale section, thanks.

Beautiful car.
However I dont see a "survivor" when I look at the no rips upholstery, fresh carpet, nice chrome and bright chevy orange paint.
Without any frame or mechanical issues certainly should pull mid $50K range.

I would think $50k is about right. If a dealer had it they would want $60-65.
