So I am trying to sell my '72. I have several people interested, one coming tomorrow and one on Saturday. The guy coming on Saturday has called me 3 times now. Today he called and had several good questions, then he asked one that I am not sure how to answer.
The question was, "I want to take it to my mechanic, body shop, and my interior guys for assessment". While I am certainly Ok with getting an informed decision, the buyer lives about 65 miles away (each way). So this would mean him driving the car across LA and back after taking it to three different businesses, probably several days at least.
I want to sell the car. I want the buyer to be comfortable. I want a fair deal for both of us. What would you do?
If I let them take the car, what kind of agreement, deposit, contract, insurance, would you require? I was thinking a deposit at least what an insurance deductible would be. My wife just flat out said no. HELP!
