Thanks, your suggestion helped a lot. I ended up searching for classic car values online (as I didn't have time to get to a store for a magazine before the meeting with my Aunt's lawyer) and I learned a lot about pricing, condition rating, etc. That said, at the meeting her lawyer pulled out a box full of paperwork about the car, including all of its service records, user manuals, etc., and also a professional appraisal done in 2002 and the value was set as 14,000-18,000 with a rating of #4. I imagine the value would be lower now as more time as passed. He did comment that "is a prime candidate for a total restoration and would prove to be a good investment car." Between that and what I learned online, I convinced them to let me sell the car on the open market. As of next Tuesday, I will be able to take possession of the car and put it up for sale. I will get a photo as soon as I can, but if anyone is interested in more details about the car, I could fax/email the appraisal information.
Thanks!
