What's it worth?

$10K sounds a little high. If you figure you need to the whole interior, new paint which will lead to new chrome or rechroming, the engine/trans/rear could give out the first day you drive it, new tires, etc. The car is probably worth $17-20K in top notch condition so 10K doesn't leave much room to work with. I'd guess around 8K. If someone else wants to pay 10K, let them.

Jeff- Thanks. You are correct, the engine didn't even smoke when we cranked it but I know it will, the valve seals have to be rotten. Same case with the gas tank hoses. I'll let you know soon when I get a price.

Thanks-
