What's this worth

Just curious as to what you all think mine is worth. First off it's a 1985 GSL with mint interior and exterior....no joke.... It has 90K original miles and runs like a dream. It has hit a deer before I started modding it but it was fixed and paint mached well. There are no major problems. It runs a little rich and the rear wrap around on the body kit sags just alittle bit..but can be fixed. Here's what I got into it. *deep breath*

Engine
12a stock port (90K)
Weber 45DCOE sidedraft
Racing beat wrap around manifold
Full racing beat exhaust
Direct fire ignition setup
Holley red fuel pump and FPR

Body
Wings west body kit
ROH 15" rims wrapped in Toyo tires
Clear turn signals and side markers
Blue street glow

Suspension
Tokicko Illumina 5-way adjustable shocks all around
Eibach lowering springs all around

Interior
Reverse glow gauges
Grant GT challenger steering wheel
Razo weighted shift ****
Short shifter from Jorx81

Sound
Sony explode CD deck
Pioneer front speakers
Sony explode 12" subs in custom boxes where storage bins used to be
Pioneer premeire amp

Here's my car domain page...I don't have any pics with the suspension setup, rims, steering wheel, or shifter installed. http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/440144

Pretty car. How many miles (and years?) since the pictures were taken? If it still looks like that, I'd give you about 5K, if I didn't have three already.

Costly or "big" sound systems really doesn't matter to typical buyers. I wouldn't add that into account when calculating the price as they hold the most value mainly to the owner that put it in. I personally would rather have those rear compartments usable there then big speakers that don't store anything. Also wings and plastic pieces for the body kit would steer me away personally. Otherwise it looks ok.

I love that color, but I think it would be worth more without the body kit. It certainly looked better before.

Agreed.


Before: - $3300 For a clean un-molested GSL.



Now: = $1500 for a clean and molested GSL.



I know you made it better...
But I think these cars are worth more when they are clean and stock.
