No pics, and cannot hear/see the car run, much less drive it.

I'd give you no more than $2000, and that's if the car is pretty clean for it's age and mileage.

OP, your best bet would probably be to fix the fuel pump and tire, put the T56 back in and maybe a set of street wheels/tires back on the car and sell it like that. A 97 6 speed car in decent shape with mild mods might bring $5k or so with that mileage.

Either way, you're not going to get much for a car that the buyer can't take for a test drive.
I can find good running, clean, stock or mildly modded examples around here with less than 100k miles for around $5k or perhaps even a bit less.
all true..

thanks for all the replies, the reason I asked what everything was worth is because I have someone wanting it all for either cash or a trade... Was just trying to see what its all worth. BTW I would never sell even just my car for $2k let alone all this, there is a totalled one on cl here in savannah for $2500 and numerous others.. the front tires aren't worn one has a puncture and I'm tired of this pile or id fix it.... Thanks again guys.

I see your in Georgia. I got the 95 T/A in my sig 3 years ago for $3100 with the 383 in it. Came with the ZO6 rims, true dual exhaust with H-pipe. Actually all I had to do was install a new breather, adjust the rockers, and a few odds and ends. I did the OTR intake as well. It was red, and I painted it orange as seen in my avatar. Had one medium sized dent in the quarter, and one fist sized hole in the front bumper. Came with dyno sheets 407 RWHP 395 TQ. The guy cut off at 5700 RPM for fear of the valve springs not being sufficient.

Asking price is quite a bit different from purchase price. No one in their right mind would buy a totaled 4th gen f-body for that kind of money. That's ludicrous. You keep referring to it as a "pile" and how tired you are of it? I'd give you $500.

Paid 2400 for my 95 A4 with 140k bone stock 3-4 years ago, needed paint. I wouldn't give more then 2-3k for a running fbody, not running 1k at max.

I've been selling cars professionally for 14 years, and selling F bodies as a side hobby for about 10. I will tell you right now, a non-running car isn't worth ****. Period. Get it running.

Then, swap the 6 speed in it and sell it for $3,500-4,000. You can bitch at 96caprice all you want, but he's dead right...a TH350 in that car takes out about 75% of the market. Who the hell wants a 3 speed automatic in a street car????

Everyone wants a t56 basically. There's a guy locally selling a formula 99 or 2000 I forgot for 5800 for a few months already it's clean but it's an a4 bet if it was 6 speed it be gone lol
