Looks really nice (except for the wiper arms and 76er's logo ) and I think would be a very desirable ride for anyone that wants those mods. That's the only trouble with modded engines. The marketplace shrinks quite a bit as people fear abuse or who did the work. Even if professionally done and driven like a baby, the potential buyers are not there. I am one of those people that won't touch a car with engine work.
As far as pricing, start in the high teens ($16k - $18k whatever you like) and see if you get any responses. This price point is provided only if the Trans Am has a clear title and not too many owners where no one will know the history of the car or if one of those owners abused it. If no responses at that price, then lower slowly until you get some bites. Low teens should be as low as it gets. The days of sub $10,000 decent rides is over unless 6 figure mileage or a bad title. If you try to sell, GOOD LUCK!!!

My 02 Z with lots of mods 2 owner and the longest owner being the guy I got it from was 83 and did all of the work to it last year. I got mine for 14k with 70k miles. I would say being a TA you could get 16-18k. Mods really do hurt the value. You can never recoup the money and it hurts the resell value.
