Default Pricing question

im not sure if this is in the correct section but anyway here it goes. it is a 99 firebird formula, nbm, M6 93,000 miles. mods include ported Patriot performance ls6 style heads and custom cam/lots of other top end work, a true dual exhaust, spec III clutch. car dyno'd 448 rwhp and 421 ft/lb's last time when the cam was put in. all work on the car is under 10k miles, and 2k miles ago alot of maintance was done when the new cam went in (new gaskets, rockers, ext...).

the car is a salvage title....not really sure how much that depreciates the value. only real problem with the car is that the ac doesnt work, not that big of a deal to me. the paint is average for a 99 with a bunch of small chips and scratches, nothing that doesnt happen driving down the road.

one more question, what is up with this rear bumper, it looks different to me

Salvage title will hurt the value a lot... Something bad happened to it.... Check it out THOROUGHLY BEFORE you buy it...

it was totaled in 05 by the original owner....front driver side impact i believe, after the accident the car was sold to hawks third gen in SC, where they repaired the
damage and did most of the original work. the owner told me he has had the frame checked out, saying places say there are no signs of it ever being in the accident.
