For Sale: 1962 Chevrolet Impala in Laguna Beach, California

This is a very high quality car I sold several years to a gentleman who now must sell it. Here is his recent note to me:

?Hello Andy, I know we spoke way back when about selling the Chevy for me, but as I love the car and have done so much work to it to make it safer, ride better, stronger and all around near perfect. I delayed the sale. I am now however facing hip surgery January 9th of next year and shifting is now a problem. I have included a list of all the improvements I made to the car and many pics. I would like you to evaluate the car now, in its present condition and give me a value for sale that will at least bring me back what I bought it for, and at that I will be losing $25,000.00. I will give you a call next week and we can talk, as I trust you and your way of business.
