What is my car accualy worth

Well just to make sure I dont try and rip off somebody I would like to know your guys opinons on how much my car is worth. I bought the car from a forum member for 450. and the motor had only 20k on it. Not bad right. But since then I have replaced the tranny driveshaft and rear end. Which I gotout of a car at Abbots wrecker service. The parts had only 20k on them as well(ya I know I luccked out) PLus new interior pieces. And a couple odds and ends. I also bought a Racing beat intake and Edelbrook carb. The car is is decint shape the only rust is on the door above the moulding(can be seen in the pics).

Here is a list of what the car needs.
Seats
Bigger fuel pump
paint
and an exhaust

I was looking to get around 1k for it I know it is kinda high but I got some stuff I gotta pay off. And put a new motor in my GTU and go to new york to see my girlfriend.

So here are the pics.

maybe sell the car for 700 or so and sell the edelbrock and intake seperately???

you probably won't get as much as you paid for those parts if you include them in the car

just my opinion

I wouldn't pay more than $450 if it didn't start and $500 if it did...

Does it run? IF so I'd say $700 withoutt the carb and manifold... sell the carb and manifold for around $400 and you'll be in good shape.

I posted a vid of it running. Why does everybody say it doesnt run. When it was running good(fuel pump went out tear) I could run a 9.4 in the 8th. I love not having a prerace inspection its awsome. It runs like a top. If it sits for a while I wont even start it without going through the proper procedures such as putting a little oil down the manifold. So it smokes a little bit if I havnt started it in a while. I just do that to be safe.

Erik was going to buy the car origanally. I went saw it. then had to leave and look at another car. So i went and looked at this POS for 1000. So needless to say I went back at midnight and the owner came by like he said he would to start it. pulged all the vacuum leaks and it had been sitting for almost a month. 3 cranks and it fired right up.

Ya the vid is somewhere in this section. The title is. I finaly got the vid up I promised.

In a free market economy, whatever someone is willing to pay is a fair price (as long as you've been honest about the condition). That said, I just paid $900 for mine that needed new seats, but has good paint. Good luck!
