What's its worth?

I've been thinking about selling my 84 SE. Curious to know what it would go for on average...

S4 block/intake manifold (needs oil pan/front cover gaskets, silicone just not cuttin it)
'custom' cold air intake with AEM dryflow filter
Full Streetport exhaust/ magnaflow dual outlet muffler
2nd gen leading coil
Grey interior/exterior
Glass moonroof
paint job about 6 out of 10

i'm thinkin around 1500. i also have a lightweight flywheel/counterweight and heavy duty clutch, would bring it up to 1800.

does it sound reasonable? it's my DD so i'd have to have something else lined up before i sold it, that's where my hesitation lies..

What is the mileage? For an SE, 1,500 sounds like one hell of a great deal. If the body is extremely straight, even with it needed a paint job, I'd put it for at least 2,000 so long as the mileage was under 150,000.

If the body is still really straight and clean I would still be asking around 2,000.

i think only a rx7 fanatic would pay that much. you can buy 90-95 cars now for 2000$ with the same mileage

If I have someone offering me 550 for my GSL without an engine or interior, I think he can definitely get 2 grand out of a car that runs good. with a 13b.

Not to mention that I paid 2,100 for a 12a powered FB two and a half years ago with 120,000 miles on it with dry rotted interior.
