Budget at least $1,200.
Will likely need new rubber and tubes, cables, plus a good tune-up, possibly chain/sprockets.
Have 2 down at our shop, they had some issues, a good overhaul and electronic ignition can turn it into a somewhat reliable scoot.

Call a Honda Dealer for a few Parts Quotes.
Don't be surprised if there is laughter on the other end of the line.
That bike is 40+ something years old, you need to KNOW what you're buying!
As for reselling for a profit?!? Well, the seller found you.

I would. You are going to spend a lot more than any meager profit you could make on this bike, so it's not an investment. But it can be a very fun project to get it running perfectly and run the piss out of it.

one of the poorer bikes Honda made - less power than the CB350, harder t owork on, not a long model run & that 6 speed gearbox is excessive in such a low tuned engine.
(I've had several 350s & a 360 & I know which I'd prefer

It is not an every day bike.
It is a bike for viewing at an antique bike show.
Parts are not available anywhere.
You will not make any money selling it.
It was a popular model and there are plenty of them around.

Honda only made the CB-360G for two years, due to reliabilty problems and poor sales.
It is neither a desireable machine nor one that is gaining in value, so if you buy it, you will struggle to sell it again and certainly not for a profit.

Not for a profit if it needs fixing. that vintage and model is a very good learning to wrench project, good learn to hunt parts, use drill press and tools project. the result is a usable utility street bike that can draw some attention from old crocks that rode them when new.

I would buy it just to have. Not to try and flip it for profit. cool little shop bike run to get lunch with it type of thing.

Until someone puts money in your hand you won't know what you can sell it for. How about some basic checks like compression and leakdown, dude? How old are the tires?

Not a bad price, or bike. As long as you keep it off the freeway.
Parts are available, don't let anyone kid you.
Just look on eBay, TONS.
