Stephen, body soldering is very expensive between the tools and equipment needed and not to mention the solder itself. It is also a very tricky material to work with if your not used to doing it. I haven't used it years and prefer to use the modern fillers. As far as the body off project, you have to decide what your plans are for the car. Will you want a trailer queen or a really nice driver that can hold its own at a show. Can't tell you the value of a GTO, I always approached it thinking what's my car worth to me. Have fun,good luck.
