A word about Scammers

Hi, I've literally just joined this group. My name is Chris and I'm across the pond in England.
I got scammed on a 71 Swinger that is still advertised on a site through someone using the business of Triple S autos in New York, I lost £8600. The banks and the international fraud squad came up with nothing after about 6 weeks. Gutted to say the least.
Anyhow, I'm looking for a 70 - 72 Swiger with a 318 power steering and air-con, i don't want a show car, just a running driving complete car as close to standard as possible. I would appreciate any opinions on what i would get for around $10k U.S.

Thank you - Chris.
