Thinking about selling. What's it worth... I need honest opinions here guys. I'm trying to decide if selling it will even be worth my time. I know I won't ever get out of it what I have in it, but I'd like to put some money in the bank.
-Mods are in the sig where it says "cam only LT1"
-Car itself has 78,000 miles on it, and aside from a few blemishes, is as good as it looks in the pics.
-It does have a ram-air hood and the wheels stay on the car.
Thanks gents. I appreciate the info.

well... it is mis leading saying cam only LT1 ... when you have a built LS2 with NO2. Nice clean car. I would say 5,500 to 6,500 assuming cold air and clean inside and out. Looks clean from photos

It's the LT1 rad support with the ribs ground off, a stock accordian bellows to the LS style K&N FIPK. It fits under a RamAir hood. It wouldn't fit under my stock flat hood.
I gave away my LT1/LS1 swapped car.
Unless you just need the money or do not like the car anymore it is hardly worth getting rid of unless there are some 'issues' (non car related) that you need to get rid of it.
I personally would just ride it

No 1/4 mile times. The motor actually only has 750 miles on it.

**** I don't know. I know what I've got in the motor. I would like to think somewhere in the 8K range. I know I'm a little biased, but it's a clean car with a VERY clean conversion. I cut ZERO corners on this thing.
As a point of comparison... you can get an '05 GTO for around $17k. The issue you're going to run into is finding someone that's willing to spend $8k+ for what is essentially a ~$4k car (it being a '95 TA). I threw out the GTO comparison because there are crack smokers on these forums that throw $10k+ into their cars thinking they're a sound investment.
It sounds like you're reasonable/realistic. I bet you could get that. There's someone out there with that kind of money (anything under $10k is in the disposable income/toy vehicle category) that would get a kick out of your car. I'd list it for $9,000 o.b.o. and see what happens.

Sounds like a plan. I was actually going to list it at $9500 and come down from there. It's paid for, and it doesn't cost me anything to have it sitting there. If I sell it for 9ish, then good deal. If not, no biggie.
You will have to advertise the car and find the right buyer. You have a few things going for you. Its an LS swap car which is hot no matter what car its in. I had my LY6 Malibu up for sale but I got cold feet when I got a real offer. It was probably a 12k-13k car stock, but 17k with the LS swap. It just takes a buyer who really likes the LT1 style TA which has always been a favorite of mine.
Second, your car is cleaner than most LT1 cars out there and you just don't see them anymore. I can't believe that these cars are getting rare. I must be getting old.

I'll see what I can get out of it!
