Appears to be an IBM Model 70
Not too special for collecting, but you may find someone to give you $20 or $30 for it.
It may just have a 386 in it, so that's cool for scrap value!
Here's a couple bits on it (Yeah Wikipedia, but whatever)

I say open that bad boy up and let us see whats inside. Im estimating you have around 8 bucks in scrap depending on how big the mobo is. If you decide to gut it, please take some pics. Thanks
hes got 8 bucks just in boards probably those old mobos are heavy. Careful with the soldered on chips sometimes they will be plain or unmarked and have gold on them.
thanks guys ill post pics when i strip
Only if you are a good looking lady.Quote:
