Thanks Norm, your Spirit is no slouch either.
As far as this car is concerned, if you don't buy it who will? It may in fact end up going for scrap value. Don't be too eager to buy this car. At 15 years old, there's lots of opportunities comming up for you. Take your time and be picky. Offer that guy $500 and wait. I'll bet he doesn't get a better offer.

The only advice that I can offer is that is a lot of wisdom and experience on this forum. Listen carefully to what they say. Most of us have learned from our mistakes.

Don't show up with a trailer, keep it around the corner. $1500 sounds very generous for this car, don't offer a penny more, $1000 seems more in line with it's condition. Sometimes turning around and walking away is the best bargaining tool. Use it if you have to, but don't turn back unless he agrees to your terms. If he doesn't, that's his loss, not yours. There are other fish in the sea.

Seriously it's not worth $2k. $1200 tops.

I know where a guy has 2 running javelin projects he'd give up TOGETHER for $1200. both in better condition than the one you're looking for. Running $2k Javelins are easy enough to find without that much rust.

I'd tell him $1k (or maybe even $750 or $500 even) and then just let it sit. WHEN he doesn't find a better offer, he'll get back to you. Some money is better than nothing, and $500 is way more than he'd get from a scrapper.

all in all. PLEASE DON'T PAY $2K FOR THAT! wayyyy too much.
I'm not building to sell. I'm in it for keeps.

Sounds like the same BS the guy that sold me the Chevy II said.
 
Don't walk kid, run!
