I paid $8000 6 yrs ago for my vert., 69, needed maybe more than yours, but looked better, but was not # matching , it WAS a 350 car but had 400 engine...and automatic. Was sold in Wisconsin ,but had been in Texas at least the last 10 yrs then.. see what people think ,take all the $ numbers ,add them up, divide by number of people and you may be close!
