Not mine, but a few mins from me....does it seem pretty good for the price or am I crazy?....any opinions appreciated...also if anyone interested, I could look at it for you, if I don't get the itch myself!

That is a nice-looking car, and that's a good price. The Old Cars Price Guide puts the value of a '66 4-door F-85 in #4 condition (good running condition but needing complete restoration) at about $2200. In those photos, this car looks better than that. The paint looks bright and clean, and the car overall, from what we can see and from what he says, looks very unmolested. At a $1,500 asking price, there are three possibilities.

1. He doesn't know what he has.

2. He knows exactly what he has, and there's some problem that he's not mentioning.

3. He knows exactly what he has, and he's pricing it to sell.

It is, after all, an F-85, not a Cutlass, and it's a 4-door. These will reduce the car's desirability, and I'm guessing he knows that. I'm guessing it's #3. It sure looks worth a visit if I was in the area (and had the room!).
