What do you think it's worth?

I've only seen one other for sale recently and it was an unfinished project.

That's hard to say. There is one at PAE that you can buy for 35k. not as nice as this one. this older restoration should bring around 50k

What engine does it use? I couldn't find anything in the ad that listed it.

Those are very nice airplanes, I have a friend with one that use to be a commercial carrier running scheduled routes.

Been a while since someone would name an airplane after Detroit. Other than the name I like it, looks cool.

I'd wager Cord had something to do with that.
