65 side moulding value?

I know there is a huge variable from area to area and of course condition.
I am seroiusly thinking about removing the pot metal side trim on my Cutlass and just wondering is there a big demand for them.
Mine is complete and in real good shape. some minor pitting.
Anyone want to take a shot on how much it might sell for?
Just looking for a ballpark. Not going to hold anybody to anything or get upset if it doesn't work out.
Thanks!

So your thinking of pulling the horizontal pieces that run across the lower part of the car? Would you keep the stainless that goes around the top of the wheelwells or be including that too? Can you post a couple pictures of the best and worst spots? John

I'll snap some pics tomorrow. Yet to remove but it seems to me it would look odd with the partial wheel trim?

Here are some not so good pictures of the right side. Keep in mind it has not been washed in years. (My top is shot and it needs paint so whats the point?)
I did a quick wipe down of one. But then the background showed up in it and it looked funky. Where its parked its hard to get any good angles.

The left side is about the same but the pictures are worse. Tight and messy shop.
Has anyone ever seen someone leave the wheel trim and remove the side?
I'm thinking w/o fabbing up lowers it would look incomplete.
I like the 64 trim with the lower rocker and have been told by a local Musclecar supply shop that 66 Chevelle rocker trim will fit.
I'd go Malibu, flat as opposed to ribbed like the SS396. More OEM looking.
