Thinking about selling one
« on: March 02, 2018, 08:32:54 am »
85gt notch back.  F23 5speed. 3.4 swap. Dawg mod intake. Digital cruise. Mr Mike's seats. Good a.c.  7730 ecm.
Good tires, 17" wheels, good suspension. Paint is fading.
What valuation would you guys put on it?

Yes.  It's my daily driver. I drove it to Memphis about a million times, to northern Alabama about a million more, then to moss point, Mississippi a few. Used it for work (and fun).  Great car, but I need to liquidate some "assets" to send my daughter to the Galapagos islands for school. It's a worthy cause. Plus, I've got three more that need love too.  Time to thin the herd.

If we provide a $ valuation, you aren't going to take it as a purchase offer, right?

I did that to the city's assessor. He assessed my home for way over what it is worth.  The city didn't want to buy my house, so they came back with a more reasonable assessment.

I was thinking $4k.  Not sure if that's right or not, but that's what feels right.

Pics (without St. Pat's decor)?  I'd be happy to post full-size pics for you.

I think the value really depends on who's looking for what at the time and how quickly you want to sell the car. I sold a a fresh 3800SC swap with 1,200 miles on a rebuilt motor, a upgraded cam, injectors, a new Spec 3+ clutch, Power Log, Modular Pulley, custom exhaust, Grand AM brake upgrades, 17" wheels, and a bit more for about $4,000. If you can hold onto it for a bit I'd say you'll have more luck not selling it on a Fiero based website, where people really know values. Maybe Craigslist.

Dang Kanga, it's been a while!  Glad to see you're still around!  I was wondering if your car sold. How did you like the spec clutch?  I'm asking because I'm building up a 3800sc swap now.
Oh, did you get the lambo doors installed finally?

It doesn't get much better than that.

For the price of a Tesla, I could buy a heck of a lot of gas, even if my vehicle only got 5 mpg.  With a Tesla, I'd certainly have to have some good tunes to play.  Some that were recorded at Road Atlanta or Watkins Glen or maybe Atlanta Motorsports Park if you get my drift.

2.    The few who learn by observation.
3.    The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.    Will Rogers
