Old custom 1911 question.

So I came across a 1950 Gov't model that has had some custom work done to it, and it looks like it was done many years ago. It has a King barrel bushing, a NM barrel, patridge front and revolver style adjustable rear sights, and a very slick action. It has been reblued, but not too rounded off. There is some evidence of pitting on the slide that the reblue covered.

Is $629.00 + tax too high for what appears to be a good shooter? It will probably become trade stock, but I don't want to be buried in it.
