How much do you guys think I could get for my car?

I'm disgusted to even post such a thing, but I have to ask. I want a turbo, and am pricing together a swap, but I also found a nice bodied FC T2 for $3400.

My car is as follows:
1986 Mazda Rx7 GXL level
1.3L N/a Rotary
Complete custom exhaust from headers to muffler tips, true duals
Otherwise very stock
Just passed safety last year
Just had floors and frame welded up last year for safety prep.
The interior is pretty decent, and the body was just painted last year.

Just an estimate would be handy guys

Thanks
-Rick

IMO, once a car has been fixed, as long as its done right - shouldn't really affect the value at this point.

I'd say $2500-$3000 at least if it's in good running condition.
No more E-testing is definatly a big bonus.

Not much is "broken" per say in the interior. The drivers side vent is gone, and the idiot light surround is cracked in the normal spot. The factory radio only outputs a small amount of volume, but its all very easily fixable.

Edit: The engine has 80,000 kms on it. Mazda reman.

With the reverse Wheel Mod. about 15k.

But 2000-2500 would be a decent number, just remember your insurance is going to go up with a turbo shell, may not be much but check it out first.

Actually, I pay insurance on dad's Ram, not my vehicle.
