Craig, I agree with the previous 2 posts. However, remember that demostrators also had signs that went with them. There are some good pictures available on them.
I for one, would pay a premium for a true demostrator that had the signs to go with it. Just a demonstrator by itself without the marketing items/signs is interesting but not the "total" package.
It is neat that you found that you have one, but I would not get too too worked up about it being a "million dollar" find. However, what something is worth is totally dependent upon what someone is willing to pay for it. I cannot tell the number of times I have sold something that I thought was "average" and had people go "nuts" over it. Then turn around, and sell something that I knew was rare or difficult to find, and barely get what I had paid for it.
Take care of it, restore it to demonstrator condition, and be proud that you have one. If you decide to sell it someday, if someone is h#ll bent on buying one, you will get a good price.
