I met a guy at autozone today who had a 1970 510. I asked him if he was interested in selling it and he told me to make him an offer. What do you guys think a 2 door manual 510 is worth? The car is straight but definetly needs paint. Interior is pretty good, but not perfect. I don't want to offend him but I still would like to get a good deal. What should I offer him?

The true question is, what are you willing to pay for it? If it was me i would make a starting offer of about $1000 if it runs good. Offer a little lower than what you are willing to pay. The guy might just want to get rid of it. Id hate to pay $1000 for a car he would have sold for $500. Then id start looking it over for any issues. This is a 35 year old car, it will have issues. Rust is a major thing. If theres no rust through on the body then $1500 might be a good offer. It really depends on what you are willing to pay for it. I got a decent 1976 Datsun 620 for $150 just because the guy wanted it gone.

Oh and welcome to NICO. Im the mod for the Datsun section. If you need anything you can im me on AIM at B11Sentra or Yahoo at Eightynine240sx.
