How much would you pay for my car?
How much would you pay for my car? It has a brand new zz4 with less than 3,000 miles, hooker headers/side pipes, msd 6al ignition, rebuilt th350 with less than 3,000 miles, brand new paint ferrari red, brand new interior, brand new bridgestone racing tires, new torque thrust II's. Im not sure on the hp, the engine puts out 350hp, 405ft/lbs tq. It has 3:73 rear end. Im curious as to how much I could get for it. I know nothing near what i put in, but I was thinking around 10k? It also has a cd/mp3 player with 2 infinity 6x9's

Just looked at his sig. He's got a 74. Looks & sounds to be in good condition. I'm thinking if the car has no rust in the birdcage and the frame rails are good you can easily get 10K. Looks like a nice vette from the one pic I saw.
Here's his sig pic.

I like the look of your vette but I think you need to drop the front just a tad to give it a nice stance. Maybe that pic is old and before the car settled but from what i see, thats the only thing I would change.

Your target market has been limited by the body and other modifications such as the stinger hood, 1980-82 rear bumper and side-pipes although overall those seem to have come together very nicely. It's a pretty car. You will find someone to whom those mods appeal although the sale may take longer than with an original car. My guess is $10k-12k. As with most Corvettes you will never recoup the costs of an engine upgrade, new paint, etc.

Tasteful mods, all the bells and whistles for a hot-rod, good condition, etc... It's really an example of everything done "right". Good job. Cover those headlight buckets with Lexan, drop it and inch or two and you're 100%. I'd say 12-15, but I don't mind mods.

If I were in the market and had the money I'd pay 10K easy. Might go 11K. It sould be a good deal for someone at either of those prices if the car is in as good as conditions as the pics indicate.

$10k-$12K seems about right. Like the stinger hood!

I'm not into mods but there is something about that car that I like. Before you start cutting coil springs or whatever in the front, what size are the wheels and tires? There is a reason it looks that way and those front tires look very low ratio. Even compared with the back. I wouldn't modify a GM-engineered suspension system to suit tires. Quite the opposite actually.
