Question '89 Automatic Convertible - pricing

The vehicle is in fairly good shape. One or two dings in the paint, cracked windshield, lots of sun damage on the upholstery, small tear in the convertible top, and the plastic case around the steering column is torn to sh*t.

Car has about 105k miles on it, the engine has 10k miles on it after it was rebuilt. Engine runs beautifully and aside from the couple dings, the paint looks great.

I'm wondering what this car would be worth, selling value, after I replace the windshield, reupholster the seats, and replace the plastic case of the steering column.

(please email to me if possible)

if it were me buying it, 1500-2000 i'd say. being an auto really kills the value for me. i think you could get 2500-3000 out of it. of course, having pictures would help us appraise it. also, interior/exterior color makes a big difference. if its black on black it will be worth more than if its gold ext. maroon int.

unfortunately, auto kills the value of an rx-7 more than any other vert because the people who purchase rx-7s tend to be mechanically inclined men, who, of course, prefer stick

Unless, they're buying it for their wife or kid who avoid the concept of stick shift like the plague.
