I plan on selling my 1973 1.7L. I have done a lot to it and I'm hoping to get around $6.500.00 for it +/-. Am I being realistic?
It runs and drives great. and it's 100% rust free. So far, I have rebuilt the pedal assembly; New Good Year tires; New outer door handles; New gear shift knob; Refinished the vinyl side sail panels; Replaced the bumper rubber top pads; New window scrapper rubbers; New trunk molding, front & rear; New rear GT spoiler; Older repaint but stil looks VERY nice. From 10 feet away, it looks absolutly new. Nice black interior with new seat covers.

From the pics and your description, I think that it would be worth north of 6.5k, but you haven't posted pics of the hell-hole, door bottoms, rear trunk floor, trunk weather stripping channels, etc. These cars rust in a lot of places that most casual observers would not think to inspect. Check the above spots, post pics, and if it is what you and I hope it is, you will get better than 6.5.

I will provide pictures to verify, but as I mentioned, I recently repalced all the trunk molding. I removed the old and replaced it all,...and there was NO rust in the channels. The bottoms of the doors, trunk floors, floor board and hell hole are all rust and bondo free. It is a local southern car and has spent most of it's life in a garage when not being driven. I'll get some pictures and upload them. |
