Selling The Ride

I see nice examples of RX's going for 3-4K on eBay, but I occassionally run across nice FB's for less...

I could use some help in establishing a price for selling my FB.

115K original miles - compression within factory specs
GSL
Original paint - good gloss, some blemishes
Full RB exhaust
RB Springs
New front components - inner/outer tie rods, ball joints, idler arm...
New rear bearings
New clutch master and slave
Rebuilt carb
Tinted windows...

The car is very clean and reliable and would be considered in very good to excellent condition - receives constant compliments...

Car can be seen at http://www.cardomain.com/ride/411256

What's a reasonable price?

Thanks for the insight!

Looks clean and straight and original. Not easy to find anymore like that. 2500-3000?

I agree with Carl. Clean straight and orignal. I have always liked that color - kind of unique and classy looking.

I would start with a higher price - $3,500, maybe $4,000 if it is as nice as in the pictures just to . It is tough to find a stock one in any kind of shape these days.

The key is advertising to the right audience. Look for different collector car sites or go to some collector car shows and park it there with a for sale sign. Or, detail it and enter in the show.

I know it sounds obvious, but the quicker you need to sell it, the lower it will go for.
