Rarity of 100% OEM Restored A Bodies - Rant/Whine

I laugh at the ppl that tell me mine is worth nothing because it sits so much and they will have to go over everything b4 they can drive it. U know how can u trust a car like that. A guy wanted to buy it recently. I told him I payed $17,000.00 For it so I want close to that. He brings me $1000.00 cash and a check for $700.00. He said he thought I was just trying to dump it cause I told him $1700.00. He thought it was a good deal for an old car. Kim
