I was forced to sell my 1985 Westy last week-My wife said it was costing to
much to keep.  Anyway, I advertised it in the Dallas Morning News for $8500
OBO.  It was a very nice Westy.  During the first few days I had it
advertised I had received calls from two DORKS who said that they thought my
Westy was only worth $5000-5500.  No, they were not calling to offer me
$5000-5500 for my Westy-they only wanted to tell me what they thought it was
worth.  All this WITHOUT seeing my Westy.  Where do these people get off
telling someone what there vehicle worth  without even seeing it?  Anyway, I
sold my Westy within a week for $7000.  As the person who brought it
realized there are very few nice Westies out there-at least in the North
Texas area.

Just my $.02 worth.
