Need help finding value-'89 WS-6
I have a '89 WS-6, 350 Formula, T-tops, TPI motor, 90,000 miles, decent shape, some sunburns in 2-3 spots. Kelly seems too low for a special edition car like this, or is it not as rare as every always said it is. Any help from experience would sure help, thanks. I don't want to sell, but I have 12 vehicles & wife is bitching. I love this car.

its nothing too special but any 3rd gen in nice shape these days are harder to find and they will fetch a premium especially with the 350 tpi L98 over a higher mileage car or project car
by the way the ws6 suspension was standard on all formulas and not an option like on 4th gen birds

Yea, that's just a standard Formula with a 350. The low miles and 350 are the only really selling point. As apposed to it having a 305 that is. Then again, they get negated from the "sun spots".
My 91 was really decked out, and I looked up its numbers and it was fairly rare. Before getting into RPO codes, it was 1:2500. Factoring in some of the more common RPOs, it got down to 1:1000ish. But it was also more "rare" because it had the nose that was only made for 2 years
You also didn't say what KBB said. I'd price it around $2500, or if it was in better shape (not sure what your sunspots are), $3K. Problem with getting into the $3K range is then you're stepping into LT1 territory. I got mine for $3,800.

Thanks guys, actually that's good, now I can tell her it's not worth selling. If I could sell some of these damn pick ups I'm sure she'll quit bitching all the time.
