It's difficult to determine the value of a car over the internet. I would say that the "old car market" stinks right now. Think about how expensive gasoline is and how weak the dollar is. I know that sounds corny; however, I saw a 1976 Olds Regency 98 for sale in town today that was going for $3200 obo. Apparently this guy must have been smoking some good stuff because it was pretty rough and needed some work. Just because something is old doesn't mean it is "rare" or "valuable."

The best advice I could give is if you like the car and think it is a decent price then buy it. Especially if you have been looking for a project / fun car. You might want to check it out and make sure it is mechanically sound first. If you don't know alot about cars then have a buddy check it out for you.
