As long as they're in good condition, built kits from the day are usually worth slightly more than what a kit version would cost today.

The main desirable feature of the Ranger you have there is the nose cone. In the mid 70's, Estes turned to plastic to make these nose cones, and in the process, made them even stubbier. There are a *few* collectors who would like an original BNC-60L nose cone, even though you can get a good modern approximation (might even be exact... haven't yet seen one) from Semroc (their cat no. BNC-60LV)
