Hey, Everyone-
I'm trying to help a friend sell a 1960 Fireflite and could use some help coming up with an asking price.
It is a sedan and has been parked in a barn/garage for 25+ years, with that much dust and dirt on it. It's a tight squeeze, but the body all looks straight except for a dent at the right reverse light. The trim and glass all appear intact. Body work (bondo) and paint done previously on headlight brows and lower fenders, rust coming back through. Interior looks fair, headliner chewed up by mice. The engine (361 2bbl) doesn't turn by hand, so assume it is stuck.
Any thoughts on pricing would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Glenn,
Based on your honest description and with all due respect this sounds like a parts car at best. Several hundred dollars would be a fair asking price considering just getting it out of the garage will be a challenge.
