Beautiful car!
Malibu Convertible + whatever the LS6 and SS parts would sell for = clone value

The value of joy and satisfaction you derive from owning and driving it!

Pretty fair assessment. If the car is as good as the photos indicate I'd guess he has more invested than what the car will appraise for.
We saw a nearly identical car at the ACES show in 2003. An absolute gorgeous clone, and the owner was totally up front about it being such. I first thought this might be that car but closer looks at your pictures tells me it's not the same car.
My advice to people asking values of cars like this has always been, "If you like it and can afford it, buy it. If you're ashamed of what you gave for it, don't tell anyone. It's none of their business anyway!" Good Luck with whatever decision you make.
