Wow! You don't see many triple white F-bodies. I really like it. 
Keeping all the stock parts was a good move. I have no idea what is involved in putting the car back to stock but you may find it necessary if no buyers come along that appreciate your engine mods. I'm sure you can get $10,000 for the car and I would ask $11,000 to allow for negotiating room. Remember that very few are paying extra money for modifications. GLWS!!

I tried to keep the mods simple and high end so I could change it back but really dont want to lol.
I am thinking of Craigs List and Auto Trader. Has anyone had any luck with Ebay?

No harm in asking $12,000 at all. If no bites, then lower the price.
Ebay is good only for national exposure for your car but the fees are too high and I stopped selling my car club members' cars on there about two years ago. There were also too many 'juvies' screwing around bidding and sending stupid e/mails, never mind the other lowball e/mails that were far too often.
I've had good luck with Autotrader and the prices are reasonable at about $40 for a long run. Not too many tire kickers and I find the buyers to be more genuine even though you still get the occasional idiots. CL is for scammers and crappy cars IMO and I don't even look for cars on there when I'm in the market. I'm sure there are some honest sellers and some fine cars on CL but it isn't worth the effort to fish them out of the muck. It also is a big negative IMO that the owner is so cheap that he isn't willing to lay out $40 or whatever for an ad. What does that indicate about the upkeep of the car he is selling?? I rarely will assist posters that want me to look at CL cars. I don't want to be any part of a poor experience or misrepresented car.
