selling car as roller, what should I ask? I've got a 99 pontiac firebird formula with around 80k miles on it. I bought it in 2001 with 26k miles, it was originally a 6 speed car, t tops,cloth interior, chrome wheels, etc. I did some mods to it and ended up getting into things way way over my head with the engine work, and ended up with the car having no motor or transmission.
Fast forward 3 years later to present time and I've pretty much grown out of the whole musclecar thing, changes going on in my life and just general growing up I guess, I no longer have the time, or patience to put the car back together, and would rather just sell it. heres the details on the car, what would be a good price to start out?
bright silver 99 firebird formula
10 bolt out of 2001 camaro SS with torsen/3.42 gear
has 98-00 WS6 wheels with new tires
brakes in rear have been modified to fit 15x10 wheels (were on the car, no longer have these)
Have all interior parts, don't have the stock seats, have pair of cloth lumbar seats out of 96 trans am
no motor or trans but will sell with new 5.7 block and 5.7 rotating assy, and 2001 T56, unknown condition
spohn torque arm with dual driveshaft loop
has a scrape down drivers side, replaced door with one from silver 2002 car, and has a new NOS fender, in black gelcoat. a respray on the fender and the rear 1/4 would be all that is needed to bring the car back to showroom condition on the outside.
I was thinking of starting out around 3500 or so and being negotiable from there. would that sound fair or should i ask more or less? this isn't an actual for sale thread, more of an opinion from the board on where I should start.

I'm gonna take some pictures in the next few days of everything I have, I would like to sell it all at once, rather than just part everything, I would end up getting stuck with the shell or other misc parts and wouldn't be able to get rid of them, so I'm gonna try to avoid that as much as possible.
