Guys:

I'm looking for a little advice as to where to find prices on Corvairs. 
I tried the Internet and the Corvair.org web site but could only find
prices on cars being sold.  I was looking for a recent list of values for
different years, models and condition.  I have seen such list for
Corvairs but can't find a copy in my unorganized files.

An acquaintance here in New Mexico is looking at a 61 Monza coupe,
powergilde.  It has a new paint job and no rust with a very nice interior
and the engine seems to be recently rebuilt.  I have seen it but have not
had a chance to hear it run or drive it.  It has not been restored but
except for some minor changes like adding an alternator and non stock
interior fabric it is stock.  However, the body has a number of minor
dents and creases, the coke cable doesn't work, and the damper doors are
missing.  There are spacers in some of the suspension springs to
compensate for sagging and it does not look like the front suspension has
 greased in a long time.  On the other had it is leak free and the
cylinder barrels are nice and clean.  So a basically nice Corvair that
needs some work to make it a local daily driver.  The owner wants $5,800
but I am thinking more like $2 - 3,000.  What do you think?  Am I out of
touch?  While I have owned Corvairs for more than 40 years I have not
bought or sold one in 30 years.
