Default Value of a 1940 Ford Conv needed, Is there a rating system?

I will soon be selling a 1940 Ford Deluxe Conv. and would like some
idea of it's value. I am told there is a rating system of 1 to 6 for
the condition of old cars. is this so? Is there a web site that
describes it?

Forget NADA they stop at 1946.

This car is really bad, in need of 10 years of work and several
thousand dollars before it will be nice again, but as it is a
convertible I'm told it's rare and worth something.

Waiting for the DMV to send me the title before I list it on eBay.

Thanks
Randy
Thank You,
Randy

1) Excellent: Restored to current maximum professional standards of quality
in every area, or perfect original with components operating and appearing
as new. A 95-plus point show car that is not driven.

2) Fine: Well-restored, or a combination of superior restoration and
excellent original. Also, an extremely well-maintained original showing very
minimal wear.

3) Very Good: Completely operable original or "older restoration" showing
wear. Also, a good amateur restoration, all presentable and serviceable
inside and out. Plus, combinations of well-done restoration and good
operable components or a partially restored car with all parts necessary to
complete and/or valuable NOS parts.

4) Good: A drivable vehicle needing no or only minor work to be functional.
Also, a deteriorated restoration or a very poor amateur restoration. All
components may need restoration to be "excellent", but the car is mostly
useable "as is".

5) Restorable: Needs complete restoration of body, chassis and interior. May
or may not be running, but isn't weathered, wrecked or stripped to the point
of being useful only for parts.

6) Parts Car: May or may not be running, but is weathered, wrecked and / or
stripped to the point of being useful primarily for parts.
