The price? It all depends on what YOU want to pay.
Sellers what the most money, buyers want to pay the least.
Offer 2K and go from that point.
You WILL be spending money for unknown repairs. You might be spending 1000's.
90% of the cars sold...have problems. Sellers will not admit to the real reason they are selling.
Most people will not sell a car that is having no problems. Unless it's a collector. This does not include stealerships.
I'm talking private sellers....most are selling their headaches...tired of putting money into it.
30 year old car? Parts availability for one thing. Unseen rust.
