That sounds like a plan.
Once you get it back, clean it real good inside and out, then oil it and you got yourself a $150 valve.
The body is salvagable if you put some time into it. It will require some sanding, then some buffing, then $15 in powdercoat at lukescustom.com (there might be someplace else, but luke knows what he is doing and at a good price I might add).
You could probably do the same for the rail.
Then I would send in the classic valve to get it fixed AGD, then clean it up good inside and out, oil it, and attempt to get about $50-$60 toward a new frame. It should go for $50-$60 no problem on the B/S/T forums, just tell them there is no stars because it just got back from AGD maintenance and you cleaned it and oiled it real well.
That should leave you with a nice RT valve, cleaned up and powdercoated body, and money toward a frame. Looks like a good start.
P.S.- The only thing I could think of for that frame was the closest trash can.
