>  What would be a fair offer for a '74 LeBaron in very good condition? The
> car has only 23,000 original miles on it. The paint (light green) and
> chrome is good. There is no rust on the car, but I don't think it will
> stay in good shape because the car is sitting outside. I checked out the
> car about a year ago, and when I drove it the only thing the was in need
> of repair was the brakes. At that time he wanted $8,500 for it. I said
> that was out of my budget, and I didn't feel it was worth that much. The
> owner call me up about a month ago asking me if I was still interested in
> buying the car. He said make me an offer. He's moving to Pennsylvania next
> year in June, and he doesn't want to take the car with him. He knows I'm
> interested, and said by June it has to go. The question is what will the
> car be worth by June of next year? 
> 
>  Also he has a '77 Chrysler New Yorker that has to go also. He wants me to
> buy them both as a package deal. I'm not sure if I want to do that. If I
> buy them both I'll probably sell the Chrysler. Originally he wanted $1,800
> for it. That car needs a lot of work. It's white on white with bright red
> carpet. Has some rust, and needs painting, new vinyl top, rechromed
> bumper/grill, etc. Typical restoration.
