$25,400 and turned down?? Seller is either 'fishing' or else will sell off ebay to avoid that ridiculous selling fee. Wouldn't blame him for that. Impressive bidding, if real.

Its about $100 to list one...no final value fees (if you have listed more than 5 cars on ebay.) If the car sells or not the fees are the same.

It used to be $125 for selling a car (if under 5 cars in a year). I haven't sold on ebay for that very reason for the past two years or so. It may have changed, but for $50 or less you can sell on Autotrader or Hemmings (if you have a decent car) and that's it, no more costs or fees. That's what I have been doing for my elderly car club members and my success rate is pretty good. It also eliminates the ridiculous ebay e/mails from 'tire kickers' and the like with just stupid 'offers'. You still get the 'whoesalers' on the other sites but the volume is way less.

I think its $125 if its under $10K final price and $250 if more than $10K but I am not sure...and those fees are only accessed if it sales.

But if you have listed more than 5 its like $50 to list it and by the time you get all the "options" it comes out to right around $84 I believe. I am listing a protouring 67 Chevelle SS 396 today so I will post the exact price later. They changed it to solve the listing a car and selling it off ebay to avoid fees things.

IMO the right way to sell a premium car is to list on all the popular sites. The more people that see it the better, but I have to tell you I have done exceptionally well through ebay over the years. I have never listed on Autotrader though.

Nice looking ride, ...
If it's back on the stock wheels, I hope the ones that were on it are now on to some other good project?
I like'em, ..., Hell, they may even look good with the centers powdercoated gold to match the car, with the polished lip.
Photoshop?!? :o)

You know me well enough to know they will end up on something! But the value of this car is in its originality so it had to go back stock...I am even taking the Corsa exhaust off and putting the Single Out The Left stock exhaust back on it!

Ya know, I didn't really like them when I first saw pictures of them on my Formula (the guy I sold it to put them on shortly after I sold it)... but now that I have it back they've grown on me and I don't think I'm going to change them.

I'm not sure why so many people don't like them.
