91 1LE Formula 350 rarity?

Allright, first ill give you all the info i know about the car, then ill give you the catch.

in 91, approximately 5,500 Firebird formulas were made. And only 46! had the 1LE option. I have heard that the 350 was also rare in the 91 formula. (does anyone know how many of the 1LE's were 350's? Or how many 350 formulas were made?) The car has about 83,000 miles on it.

The catch is that the car was in a wreck and recieved a salvage title at 11,000 miles. It was later rebuilt and recieved a rebuilt title. Since then its ended up near me. The guy selling it has no idea what 1LE is or how rare it was that year.

1) Will this car be worth anything in the future assuming the 1LE parts are still on the car?

2) Will the salvage title ruin any chances of this car being worth anything?

3) How many 350 1LE's were made?

Thanks to everyone who reply.

Yes it will be worth money, yes the salvage will affect the price, no I do not know how many were built. But I do know the 5speeds were rarer due to the fact a lot were raced and trashed into the ground!

Without the 1LE parts I'd say its worthless. Since its been totalled the value of the car just dropped at least %50. For the general public a 1LE is nothing special. If you're looking for a unique car for you to keep and enjoy yourself it'd be great, if you want something to fix up and resell at a profit, its not going to happen.
As for 91 Formula 350's, I'd estimate about 600 but there aren't any positive numbers out there for combinations.
