Ok.... I'm not asking anyone to buy the thing.
Lets try this... He's going to he happy if he gets $5000 for the car.
Working backwards if this car was complete and in great shape I figure that the most it would be worth being a non matching numbers car would be $20k... Am I high/low?
We figure this thing is going to need $10 to $15k to complete... paint, parts, rebuild, etc.
Does all that sound reasonable?
