Buescher Aristocrat by Selmer '63 repairable?

As a musician feeling comfortable playing bass and guitar in college I now wish to pick up playing Alto an instrument I've always harboured a desire to play but never had the chance. A while back I bought a sax from ebay a Buescher Aristocrat #397xxx as it encompassed everything i wanted from a sax visualy however it wasn't packaged well and seemed to have been damaged in transit. It hadn't been used for some time so i was expecting to have to have it overhauled. It had a sticky key so i took the left hand key work of to what the problem is. The third post down is out of line so would like to know what the damage is, roughly what it'll cost to have repaired and what this horn will be worth when working? Below are some pictures showing the sax. Its not in the greatest condition, few dents, plenty of wear and what not but thats all part of it to me as long as performance isn't effected obviously. Thanks for any opinions. I believe it is a aristocrat by selmer from 63?
