I need to get some pricing info on a car for insurance reasons.

The car is a 1982 Buick Regal, 4 door. The engine is in very good 
condition, runs smoothly, with no major problems, annual maintenance
in the $350 range. The upholstery is heavily worn on the driver
side, stained on the passenger side (noticeably depressed from use,
but not torn), and fine in the rear. There is rust over much of the
outer surface of the car, and a new paint job is a good idea.

The car has 76,000 miles, and was purchased in sep 1982 (11.5 years old).

My insurance agency claims that this car is only worth $1900.

My questions:
#1. If you have a car for sale that matches this description,
please send me a detailed description (make, model, condition,
etc) so I can see if the insurance agency is, in fact, giving me
what it will take to replace the vehicle.

#2. If you purchase cars (say for a car reseller), how much would
you pay for such a car, and how much would you then turn around
and resell the car for?

Thank you.
