Check EBay, maybe $75 or as much as you can get for it

Price could be anywhere from scrap AL to what Scott said. Depends a lot on condition. Need to know about cleanliness and appearance, sealing surfaces, threads for water outlet, dist. holdown, carb, weather or not it has carb studs, etc.
Most of those early single planes don't perform as well on the street at lower RPM's as a dual plane. A dual plane might be worth more but it all depends on what someone wants to use it for.

It would also help to know if it's a BB or SB, and whether or not it has been hogged out excessively, been milled or otherwise adversely modded.
