Default Year One Formula?

My buddies uncle wants me to list his on eBay. He's got 2 bergers and I guess doesn't want the formula anymore. Anyway whats the going price for these things? I have been by to look at it yet but chances are it has less than 1K miles on it and has been under a cover in his garage since he bought it.

Just want to see what its worth so I can give him an idea.

Call GMMG, or better yet, get GMMG to list it for him. They are the ones that did the conversion, they might know other customers that want one.

It was a GMMG car? I thought so but his nephew said it wasn't. Is $28K too much?

Is it red? Find out what package it has. He should have
the window sticker from GMMG if he is the original owner.

Im 99% sure its silver. I havent seen it in about 2 years. He probably hasn't had it out of the garage in 2 years lol.

Any idea the price value of one? Im debating buying it from him but I don't know what to offer and he doesn't know what to ask.

Well, depending on what stage it is would kinda dictate the price. The cars were available in the base 350, Stage1 380, and Stage 2 455...basically the same pacakges as the Blackbirds. If it was converted by GMMG but he can't find the paperwork, check the windshield by the driver's side or there's a brass tag on the door jamb by the dash on the driver's side that would give the build number. You should be able to contact Matt Murphy at GMMG and he can tell you what package and everything it has.

Get some pics of it if you can cause I'd like to see it and have some to add to my folder cause I have pics of the others that I've been able to find.
