Wylie's probably close.  The one thing to remember about these cars, in such
condition as this one "appears to be" in, is that it takes exactly ONE
person to determine the value, and that's the person willing to write a
check to buy the car.

An example is my former car, an '83 with 72k miles, in close-to-original
condition (not concourse or pristine, just original).  It was advertised in
the Marketplace for nearly a year at $10k, thinks me.  Out of nowhere came a
buyer who wrote a check for $9.5k.

As said: It only take one person to determine the value of a rare car.  That
person is the guy with the loose checkbook.  None of the runner-up bidders
are of consequence in determination the "value."

Good luck!
