Yessir, not engine related so now it's here in the Camaro section.

CodyCamaro13

Ok so anyone know a good value?

hardbones

Its gonna be hard to put a value on the car cause its so highly modified
If you find the right buyer that knows what you have and wants a highly modded car maybe $12-14K????
In the real world its a borderline drag car so $10k??

CodyCamaro13

Ok,not arguing here at all,so this is a western not arguement,but $10k for a car with $50k+ in it?I was thinking at LEAST $20k-$25k being that's less then half of what's in it on top of kbb

hardbones

KBB doesn't apply to your car anymore
Unfortunately the car is worth more if you part it out than it would ever be as a whole. Like I said, find the right buyer and you may get lucky.
Its not a high end low 9 second race car but its to modified to be a comfortable driving street car. Kinda stuck in the middle...

It's worth that money but very few have $20,000 cash laying around that wants that type of heavily modified car. The buyers market is extremely limited for a car like yours and finding a buyer in that price range will be very tough. I know that isn't what you want to hear but reality is a tough pill to swallow sometimes. All you can do is try. Maybe someone is out there that wants exactly what you have. You will never know without trying an ad. Just don't expect it.

Unfortuntely, you have a situation where the finished product is worth less than the sum of its parts.

I agree with the above, that you'd be better off going back to stock with the car, selling it as a demodded stock car, and selling the parts separately. That's a TON of hassle, but the best hope of recovering the most possible cash if that is your priority. In reality, you don't normally get even half of what the modifications cost when new, maybe 25% would be more accurate and even then some extensive and/or polarizing modifications will actually lower value to many buyers.

Without seeing any pictures, I think ~$15k is going to be the ceiling for a car like this, maybe a bit more or less depending on location/local cost of living and attention to detail within the build and overall condition. The extensive modifications and upper 5-digit mileage will keep the collectors away, and right now the collector examples are generally the only ones selling in your proposed price range. At this point you are looking at a very specific, very limited group of buyers and getting it sold for your proposed price range may take a very long time, if ever.

A stock '98 SS with 76K miles in very, very nice condition is probably at most $8K. Now if you wanted a superbly mint '98 SS with 15K miles, you can probably buy that car for $12K to $13K. That's what the buyers/collectors are looking for. And once into the $20K to $25K there are numerous high demand cars that can be purchased with even lower miles ('99 and '02 WS6 anniv cars, very limited production GMMG cars, Firehawks, etc.). Had you chosen an '02 WS6 SOM with <40K miles it's possible you could have found a buyer at $20K or more. But a '98 SS with 76K miles starts $7K to $8K less and is under much less demand. The more specific you make a project, the less the demand there is for it. I would agree with the $15K level being about top dollar. There are just too many really nice, low mileage original cars out there for potential buyers to choose from. But, there could always be the one guy who plans to do the same mods you just did and would be happy to spend $20K upfront before shelling out >2X that amount.

CodyCamaro13

That was pretty much what I was expecting to be honest,I just wanted to know,I mean I figured having all this stuff done to it I could find someone to pay way less then what's in it for my asking price because I know alot of people don't want to shell out $40k-$50k or more to modify a car,that's why I figured my asking price wasn't TO high,but again that's why I posted on here do I could get some opinions,so you guys think I should put it up for $15k-$20k?to be honest I'm really looking to just trade someone for a fast 4 door car like a G8 or something ya know,think that's a good start?

hardbones

Put it out for trade and ask $20K or best offer and see what happens
You might score a nice trade
Post some pics up and lets see what this beast looks like
