i need to get rid of this car because i have no indoor room to do body work in. what is a reasonable asking price for this car? could i get what i put in to it?
I would not give you 6500 for it. Look at what it needs. Rust repair, interior work, trunk floor. Maybe it's just me but for the car your selling I'd want a lot more to start with considering the money I'd have to shell out initially. Perhaps you should consider finishing this car....???
