High idle or just crazy?

[H/O84]

I like to determine my pricing by looking at sold cars on ebay and trying to find a car that is similar. This way you can see what cars are actually selling for. But as someone said earlier the right buyer may take some time but is worth waiting for if you arent in a rush to sell. I was trying to sell my 87 z28 for a long time and I had people offer me 4k for it because they complained the paint wasnt perfect and it had almost no options, after having it for sale for 2 winters I had a guy who was in love with the car and paid 7k for it. he said that liked that it had no options because it was less junk for him to break. In other words there is an *ss for every seat.

no i apologize for saying it was too.

i might just auction it off on ebay, has anyone ever done this or heard stories because it seems like it would be pretty easy for the buyer not to pay, causing you to have to re list.

There may be a die hard Regal lover that will pay what you are asking.......

Honestly i would offer you 2000 tops for the car since it is not driveable.

You may consider that a low ball number but thats what I would offer.

Sometimes if you want top dollar you have top spend a few dollars to get it.

agreed, also i would like to mention that i fixed the front brake that broke(due to me not rust) and after i fixed it i realized there were multiple holes in the back brakes. im pretty sure there is one right above the fuel tank because after i patched one of the holes, 2 more appeared. unless it was some other liquid that dosnt smell.

Yeah the thermostatic chokes on the 305 2bbls tend to get testy after the car sits a while, especially in the cold. I'm replacing it with a Holley but for you I would recommend a choke replacement if you're worried about keeping it stock.

Keep your eye on this auction see if it sells maybe it will give you an idea what your car is worth.

People tend to get Barret Jackson syndrome when it comes to pricing cars these days.

i agree, its just so hard to price a car thats this old, and in this condition. minus the brake lines the car is very good. not even surface rust on the frame or the body.
