I have an oppt to buy a really nice street Porsche and am wondering what my race car would go for these days.
Its the former Grantsfo pirate ship... been sitting here unused for the last 2 years... and I've used it twice... Yeah, I know. Here's a short list of things: '74 low mile chassis FG trunks, bumpers, and flares 5-6 year old 2.5 purpose built /6 motor, carb, twin plug LSD transmission 5 lug / full suspension Cage Kirkley seat 2 sets of wheels Known issues: LSD slips Engine smokes after sitting long periods Carbs likely need cleaning Package would include nice Carson steel open deck trailer. What's it worth? Attached thumbnail(s) |

Hey Rob: The market for race cars is somewhat soft, unless you happen to be selling something that meets the market's sweet spot. If I had to do it all again I'd just do it on eBay and put a retainer figure that meets your minimum objective. eBay gets the word out - gives you EXPOSURE. Also putting a longer buying period on it will attract more people. I would also figure out how to link the sale to face book, another medium that will get you huge exposure. And with your natural talent you should do a video on YouTube. Like the metamorphosis of a young married guy that has to give up his first beauty (race car) to retain his most important asset, i.e. Cheryl. It will probably go viral. Be realistic, but put a price that will make you ok with the deal. Otherwise, just keep it and run it. |
