Default 1968...what's it worth

Posted a 1968 for my father-in-law. I just picked a price, I know it might be high......

But what do you think it is worth? Base 1968 coupe. No PS/PB. 350HP 327.

In pretty good shape, just not perfect.

Any insight you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

IMHO....
few reactions:
*pretty decent price to start a discussion, got my attention, but I am not supposed to be looking though.
*need some photos of the engine & interior
*tell me more details? original engine/trans? rust? original paint, what is good and what needs attention, the hood and rims not original, maybe no big deal, more likely reduces the value some.
*I would expand the market exposure as much as possible, maybe put in some major metro areas close to you too. Denver, St Louis, Chicago?
Best of luck with your sale.

Saw it on the Omaha CL. There's also a 69 427 conv. on there from Ainsworth. He wants $29K for it.

350 hp is not the base engine so I wouldn't refer to it as a "base 68 coupe". Only 4 spd available with that engine, I think. Also would need to see some interior and engine pics.

Seems fair priced. But I have not seen the chassis or inside. That is where I always go to see it's soul.
