   set it at $2500 and let them talk you down to whatever the lowest is you'll   
   take for it... make them work for the drop, too... maybe $1600-$1800 bottom?   
   who knows, maybe you'll get $2000 for it and they'll be happy as all get out   
   even with the apparent problems that they find out about...   
      
   just on the surface, perhaps just the bushings on the rob arms need to be   
   replaced... possibly also adjusting the valves if they have adjustment screws   
   on them under the valve covers like we used to see and handle with feeler   
   guages and a couple of hours under the hood...   
      
   just my 2 pesos and i generally don't sell my vehicles once i've gotten them ;)
