Re:
I'm going to say somewhere around £150-200 but it's hard to say. I paid £175 (I think) for my 1988 frameset. That included a second pair of forks, XT u-brake and 105 headset. It had the original paint although with plenty of patina. Some people will prefer original paint, some a nice new repaint.
I think you've made the right choice splitting it as although I'm sure the modern build rode nicely a lot of potential buyers wouldn't want to spend the extra money on a bunch of components they wouldn't be using on their build choice.
