Default Whats my Track/Street car possibly worth?

Hmm that is the big question only reason i am considering this is i have been recently told that some land that my family has been renting for well as long as i can rember. And i'm close to 30 now. Is up for sale. since a Neighbor has made an offer to buy it.

Anyways back to point here is what my car is

99FRC

INTERIOR:
MOMO steering wheel
White face gauges
Cobra Emola ll Kevlar race seat w/Corbeau slider
Pass side is Ultrasheild w/OEM slider
Schroth 6 pt. harness drivers side/ G-force pass side
New B&M Precision Sport shifter
6 pt. rollbar with removeable door bars installed by RP
Motorsports in Atlanta.

Exterior

L5 Fenders with zo6 mudflaps
ACI Side Skirts
MSI rear spoiler Bolted on.
Trailer Hitch

ENGINE
Forged LS6 shortblock, Eagle crank and rods, Diamond pistons,

3:42 diff
Elite Engineering tunnel plate

SUSPENSION
All bushings are VBP poly
Doug Rippie COIL OVERS
Hotchkiss front and rear bars with heim-joints
Red calipers
Goodridge SS brake lines


I also have 2 sets of CCW wheels i can sell with the car.

This last year i went through and changed all fluids in everything. and put new rotors and Hawk HP+ pads in it. The car was also repainted this last year.

I have autocrossed this car and Done a few track days and a open Road race. Care has like 75,000 on the body and about 13,000 on the motor build and such. car also has AC in it and a Radio still which i both reinstalled this past winter.

So anyone wana give me an ideas? Mabey it's to hard of a sell and i should just keep it instead. I thought if it was worth decent coin still i would liquidate it. I can always buy another car a few years down the road. Lands kinda hard to acquire sometimes especially like this. But if the cars not worth very good money right now then mabey i'd be just as well ahead keeping it.

Thanks for the input guys i appricate it.

I'd say you'd be lucky to get 26k, but can probably have buyers at 18k. What do you think its worth?

As for what i think it's worth thats why i had asked you guys. I bought the car and have put some money into it but that don't mean much to some people either. I would hope it would be a Mid 20K car but finding someone to give that to me will be harder. It would probly sell quickly for just under 20 in that 18k like you said.

Granted if i had to sacrifice it for under that. it honestly wouldn't be worth it to me for that money. Not at this point for what i'm doing. Borrowing another 18,000 to buy land isn't much. But 25k or better is a diffrent story.

Thanks for the input guys

Todd, what a interesting change of events. Just let me know what you figure out. Buy that land as soon as possible on a personal note.
Someone will give you 25-30 for the car, just got to find a buyer.

Yeah i know Randy tell me about it. I was the right person when i bought the car. Finding the right person again may be harder this go around. And the land deal came up after we last chatted. I have a couple more days and i have been putting numbers together and i'm not likeing it. So i may end up passing on the deal hate to do it but at the end of the day if i can't make the figures work then whats it worth to stick my neck out there.

Yes the car is Located in South Dakota. Currently has Stock Brake setup on it with hawk HP+ pads on the car I also have a set of LG Stop brake kit. Uses the Factory Rotor but give you a SL6 Caliper.

I would have the calipers redone before i sold the car though they got some overspray on them when the car was painted. the rears did anyways didn't get things covered up as good as we should of. The car was jammed also when it was painted.
