I'm sure many of you have seen my ad on Craig's List and eBay, so here's a
question: What do you ask for a car that has had all the mechanical work
done, with many upgrades, but needs a gasket windshield conversion with the
attendant body work around the windshield area? I just did a $2,800 valve
job, it's got the $500 rare earth magnet starter, Merrit Carden lightened
gears, Euro cams, rebuilt engine with Motronic pistons, Ingram pump, extra
wheels, many spares, ReOriginals headliner in a box, extra rear glass, rebuilt
taller diff, rebuilt suspension, Bilstein shocks and lots of etc. I'm
probably in the car $20k, I'm asking $10k obo, not that I expect to get that,
but it keeps the bottom feeders away and it's really a good car. My
experience is anything you don't make "as new" will leave you by the side of
the
road, waiting for a tow to your mechanic. It's all been done, it's a
completely reliable car. What's a realistic price?
