You don't have an exact scenario. When you describe the condition, i.e., basketcase, garage queen, etc. and you describe the seller, then you have an exact scenario.

every scenario will be unique. Mine, the guy had no idea what he had, his wife told him to get rid of it, we struck a deal at his asking price, I flew to TX, he took time off and helped me with the car, it was clearly worth a lot more than he was asking, even as a basketcase, and I told him as much, and we agreed at double the asking price which was fair for both of us. I drove away in a Penske box truck with the car in the back.

So many variables in any sale, each judgment must be unique.

If I came across a similar gentleman with a nice example of a speedster, I would tell him how much it's worth and I would tell him how much I could pay, and then let him decide.
