It sounds good from your description, and pics. the price of $16,500 isn't too far off.
I would want it for $12K, but would go to $15K.
Harder to find these now, if it were me I wouldn't let a couple of grand either way, prevent me from owning it.

Here we go again...

If you're going to shell out some big beans, why not spend a few extra beans before hand and look it over yourself, rather than take the word of ...even your buddy

Ever hear of "I'm from Missouri....show me".

Seeing it in person for yourself, then you can make a decision on what's it's worth, not mine..

Your opinion and my opinion are two distinct things, about the quality of something.

It is a buyers market right now. Six or seven if there is no rust cover up. You can not pay more than you can sell it for. There are some nice cars on e-bay that do not get a bid and a few years ago they were going for $30,000. Lot of cars do not meet half of the reserve. Do not chop the car. There are a bunch of them already chopped and you can buy them cheaper than you can chop them.
