The interior must be really nasty. Wonder where the Qpanel decals came from?

I call these cars "heaps"

Maybe for $1,000 it would be an OK buy but at $10k, that is a joke. It would take a resto shop around $50,000+ to get it back to like new condition.

Judging by the dozens of other heaps sitting in the background of this persons yard, it's a residential junk yard to be sure.

He dropped the price to $8500, curious what this thing is realistically worth?

It's probably beyond fixing but have to see it in person to see how bad it has rotted away. Judging by photos, all the sheetmetal (doors, fenders, quarters, etc) is completely rotted on the entire bottom of the car. I think it's headed for the crusher. The frame is probably just as bad, if so, there is no fixing it.

It's been sitting outdoors in the Pacific Northwest. The rain and salt air took its toll on the metal.

Asking $8,500 for that heap, just tells me the owner is not right in the head. They would rather have it rot outside than have sold it years ago for a reasonable price. People like that are very difficult to deal with. In the photos you can see another A body convertible completely rotted and sitting outside. Not a good sign.

That car needs absolutely everything. You would never get your money back on that car. No OAI hood. No spoiler. Rust everywhere. You know what they say about rust. If you can see obvious rust you will find fifty times more. Zero interior pics. That can't be a good sign. 8500?? Maybe. Maybe 850.00. Maybe.

You may be not too far off. No breakdown for "Ralley 350" model in 2018 Old Cars Collector Price Guide, but they list Condition #6 Cutlass Supreme 2dr HT as $840. Regular Cutlass Condition #6 as $660 (S sedan) and $760 (S HT). 442 2dr HT is $2,280 as Condition #6.
Very humid and moist climate, that is the worst thing working against it.

He needs to drop a zero on that price. $500 is more appropriate

The title is the only thing clean on that car. It looks like it has been in a flood.
