Hi, Kirk-

A good place to start would be the Kelly Blue Book: www.kbb.com

Based on this vehicle selling in Northern California, that $18k price is
probably not too bad, particularly in light of the fact that they are
doing all that engine work.

Good luck!

====================================
Blue Book Suggested Retail:  $18,180
====================================

Suggested retail represents the price a dealership might ask for this
make and model vehicle. This represents a fully reconditioned vehicle in
excellent condition. This retail price is not a trade-in or private-party
value, but rather assumes that a dealer has absorbed the cost of making
the vehicle ready for sale, reconditioning, advertising, sales
commissions, arranging for financing and insurance and standing behind
the vehicle for any mechanical or safety problems. Many late model
vehicles at this price have passed an inspection program or carry a
warranty. Actual dealer selling price may vary from this price.
