Well, you think $4500 is fair, and he wants around $5,200...Hmmm well what I do(and it works) is to shoot for a lower price, like 4000, , and hopefully he will compromise...

Or you can tell him that you will pay 4500 in cash, that works sometimes..

Transmission: 5spd, th400
I would take cash in hand (in 20's) and make him an offer and show him the stack of money, most of the time the seller sees the wad of cash and will more than likely take it.
Also you might take a few friends to keep the seller honest and they will not try and rob you (if they were thinking about it)
This has worked for me several times.
Good luck.
