I found a guy who has a couple doors for my 66 that are in pretty good shape, a whole lot better than mine. What are they worth? He won't tell me what he wants for them, wants me to make an offer...whats a good deal?

Thanks!

If says make an offer make sure to low ball him. That will make him tell you want he wants for them. Hes got a price in mind and he's hoping you're goin offer more then what he wants.

highwayman is exactly right, and if he comes out and says something high just tell him, you'll keep looking and if wants the money bad enough he give some

A good set of used, rust-free doors for a '64-'66 Chevy truck, can go for $500.00 per pair. Make an offer and commence the negotiation process. If you need a good, rust-free pair, they are worth whatever you are willing to pay. If you feel like the seller is holding you up, take your business elsewhere. New reproduction door shells are now available for $400.00-$500.00 each. Go used, OEM if you can, whereas they are a better fit and finish. The imitations are not the same quality, fit or finish. Good luck with your project.

I agree with everyone else, he has a price in mind, but he doesnt want to scare you off because he knows its high. But on the flip side, if you should happen to offer a little more than what he has in mind, he hasnt committed to anything and can get top dollar for them. I say offer him $100 just to get his reaction, then you should be able to get the price out of him.
Then act uninterested and he will come down even more!
