As far as this car, the current owner wants to get as much as he can from me and I want to get it for as little as possible. I'm not in the habit of willfully losing money on any thing I buy.
In fact I really don't want it but he wants to use it as a partial trade for one of my cars and he wants more then it's worth to me, I'm looking to see if I can justify the kind of numbers he wants.

haha too true, I offered a friend 5x for his project what he sold it to another guy for because "he has a history of making magazine trucks". It was parted out immediately. I guess the magazine it made into was the autotrader parts for sale section. the hulk is still rotting in a backyard and I send him a picture of it whenever I see it.

I love the tactic buyers use of "yeah but its going to cost me $xx to do this or that", I always reply "why would I care what you spend on it, isnt asking me to take money off to fix it the same as me paying to fix it?"
