Default What's my car worth

Ok not sure what it's worth but I was thinking of selling it as a roller

98 black ws6 50,000
all wiring has been switched to 2000 including interior harness
99+ gas tank with brand new racetronics fuel pump and hot wire kit
brand new 10 point chromemoly cage with swingouts
interior is all back in it and complete with rear leather seats and kirkeys for the front
ac delete but still kept the heat
ozite carpet
moser 9" 35 spline axles spool about 3000 miles
draglites front and rear
bmr lca's and torque arm
competition engineering rear shocks
new bmr k member
bmr trans cross member for turbo 400
pa racing front lower a arms
qa1 front struts
burkhart strange manual master cylinder w/ all lines run and bled and line lock
burkhart chassis front bumper support
slp subframe connectors

needs very little work to finish. needs motor and trans
without pics what would something like this be worth
I know I'm forgetting stuff also just throwing it out there as I'm not sure if I want to sell or just put my motor and trans in it and keep it

put your motor and trans in it and keep it! so hard these days to get your money back out of parts

You may get 2000-2500 for it from the right buyer, but thats pushing it honestly. You would have to find someone looking for exactly that car with the mods you have done to it (and with their own running gear to put in it) to get what its "worth" out of it. You would do a lot better to completely part it out then sell the shell for scrap. The hood a lone should bring $700. Plus all the other stuff typicaly brings 70-75% of the "new" price if its in good shape.

This is certainly a case where the whole is not worth the sum of the parts.

Not to be a dick but if that was the case I would rather burn it. I've sold junk rollers for more than that

Well then do a search in the classified for rollers and see what they are bringing....not what people are asking for but what people are buying them for.

My point was that you could part that car out and get 2 or 3 times out of it what you could selling it as a whole. If you cant figure that out then your the idiot.

I know I could part the car out but I would rather have all the money at once than part it out and deal with the cheap ***** that way. I have yet to see a bone roller go for less than $3000
