well I think he could start naming his own price just about.
there is not very many around nowadays.
sometimes you might be lucky enough to pick one up for a couple of thousand (usually 1 owner, very good nick)
sometimes a couple of hundred. (usually very rusted)
all depends on the condition.

grab it mate.
you wont find very many around nowadays anyway.
I know where there is a TD cortina sitting in a yard and I have to get it before they decide to take it to the wreckers.
I hate seeing these old cars being taken away to be crushed.
Ill even leave it in my back yard till I finish my TC then start rebuilding that.
