So much depends on overall condition of the '78 SA.
A few questions for starters..
Tires, brakes, battery, lights, gauges, heater, blower, A/C..
trans, engine-carb..hoses, belts, oil-fluids, cooling system..
engine the L48 or L82?Manual or automatic, Gymkhana Suspension?
Does it have the provenance such as owner's manual, build sheet with options listed?
Body/paint, pinstriping, emblems condition?
What has been maintained, Upgraded properly,..what works,?
I paid 5K.for mine a couple of years ago and went thru virtually everything including interior, paint and now it's pristine w/59K original miles..I have close to 18K in mine..The body/paint work being the most expensive single part of the restoration..Jim
I just purchased mine on New Years Eve. Paid $18,600 for it. It's an L82 4 spd with oyster interior. It is fully loaded, 77,000 miles and all original with exception of a new high quality re-paint. I specifically wanted a Pace Car or Silver Anniversary car L82 4 spd. In my search I saw L48 Autos for as little as 12k and L82 4 spds as high as 25k.
I felt like I got a decent, though not smokin, deal based on what I looked at.

Photos of your friends car would help.
Nice looking L82!..Great Smokey Mountain backdrop very nice..I love that country too..I'm happy with the L48(w/headers, no cats.duls)& the THM 350 auto trans..At my age, working the clutch and gear shift..is no longer for me!Jim
http://www.vettefacts.com/C3/1978.aspx they made a lot of them .all about the condition of the car .paint is important.60 k is low miles for the age .prices vary a lot.
Well,now that I have more details..lol. It's an 82 silver/gray. Automatic.60,000 miles.New or newer tires and an aftermarket radio. He keeps telling me it's an anniversary edition but I think he may think that because it's the last year of that body style? Anyway, condition overall is good,well maintained.
