Default what is my car worth?

its an 86 NA i bought from dan in cincinnati a couple years ago for $2800. its got 212k miles, stick, runs well except for one problem which developed after i bought it form dan. it leaks oil from the headgasket onto the exhaust making lots of smoke on startup. ive tried applying yamabond to the leak but it didnt work. how much do you suspect its worth in this condition? essentially i wanna know if its worth removing the head (which for all i know, has never been removed and will be a biotch)

so basically it shouldnt be driven, 2k or less. fix the headgasket and you might be able to get what you paid for it minues the $100 for a headgasket kit.
