How much is this worth ?

I am trying to sell my 87 base model and have had no takers. It has 170,000 miles but the person I bought it from said that the engine had been replaced. I believe it because it runs really strong. How much do you guys think it is worth ?

New red paint
New front brakes
New A/C condenser and charge
Pioneer CD player
Good Tires
New shifter bushings
New rear brake caliper
New front seat covers
Grey interior with rear seat
New battery
New NGK plugs
Recent exhaust system
Very Strong Runner

I'd say no less than $2000 (I'd say about 2300-2500)

Yea, I'm only asking 1,600 and have had no interest.
It is only a base model but it is a great car.

Well, it depends on how long ago the motor was replaced.

I seriously don't think you will get more than 1k-1200. All that new stuff is just common replacement items that go out with time, it's like saying new oil and new gas. If you could guarantee that it has a new motor, then you could get more, but with just a guess it's really a risk. 170k is alot of miles, even for 2 motors.

a good aftermarket paint job is so hard to find... i always see those cheap macco paint jobs last for a few years then peal and crack off. A good paint job costs big bucks.

I agree that most of the items are ones that normally go wrong. My point is that I have gone thru the car and fixed all of the items that needed replaced. The new owner will not need to worry about them. As for the paint. It was sanded, bare spots primered , sealed and shot with sherwin williams base coat/clear coat.
