Default 1978 Pace Car

A friend of mine has a 1978 Pace Car with 30k miles on it. The car is all original and is in good condition. It has a 4 speed tranny. He wants to sell it but is unsure of the value. Can anyone help with an estimate?

To many variables Pics would help.
Dry stored? Maintenance kept up?

That can be tough, as prices are all over the place on these; I own one. With miles in that range I would estimate between $20-25k depending on condition.....

Advise your friend to have the car appraised.
