Lets say your car was stock and looked like this with motor and transmission” which it doesn’t have”.

The car would probably bring in about 7 to 8k with the paint job it has. “We aren’t talking about mods yet” Now you put the fact that he spent a **** ton of money in parts labor and all the other things for this car. I will copy his list for you. Parts that would mean something to ME $5,295 this is all at new prices not used.

That car by it’s self would bring $4,500 to 5k as a roller not including parts.
Now we look at the parts and what I do is, I half the cost of parts to give me what I’m going to add to the cost of the car. Let’s say $5k for the car + $2647.5 “parts” Get me to a total of $7647.5

That’s what I would start with and work someone down on from there. I’m not trying to insult this guy’s car but, this is how I do things. Hope you get what you want for the car. If your looking to get a lot more then this you might want to keep the car or part it out. You know if you part it out you will get more.

Lol wow Hawk.. That was a very detailed post. I appreciate the input.

If a mod would please just close this thread... I need to finish putting the interior back together, then I will post a for sale thread if I decide to sell it.
