I need help guys. I know I’m going to catch hell about this, but I need some realistic ideas. I want a newer/faster DD. The fact is, FrankenStang is fast as hell, but not exactly a daily driver. With that being said, what do you think my car is worth if I sold it out right or did a trade? Please think of it as if it were yours and you wanted to sell or trade it. What would it be worth? I really want to know what my options are with this.

Man thats a nice ride! Looks like you have about $15000 in it. Just a guess but I would say $11,000 to the right buyer.

Thanks for the comments.

I have receipts that show I've tied up closer to $18,000 in the car. I wish I could find somebody that would trade me an 03-04 Cobra, Mach 1, or 98-2000 C5 Vette for it. They could be bone stock or in need of an engine rebuild for all I care. I know that will never happen though.

I would probably settle fo $10K if somebody offered it. I would like to get more, but realisticly, I know better.

Great looking car!
Looks like you take really good care of it. I'd say somewhere around $10K +/-. With all the reciepts it'd be easier to make a little more off of it.

It's a garage queen. It's seen rain one time since I started building it. It sits all alone covered with a car cover. I do have tons of receipts for everything I've ever done to it. I just need to buy a new set of rear tires. The wheels I bought came with a set of used M/T's and lasted all of about 2 drives down the street before the threads started showing. Needless to say, I never drive my car in fear of tearing up the paint due to a blowout.

i feel your pain.....

you never get out of them what you put in....

but it is a beautiful car if you don't have to sell hold out until you get your price...

this economy doesn't help either ....

The only problem is that there is a lot of stuff that has been modded on that car.
Now for someone like me, I don't ever feel safe buying a car that's been completely modded. BUT there are those who like to buy a car with the work already done. So don't take that as a bad thing, just make sure you sell it to the right person and you should get what you want for it. PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE!

I know exactly how you feel on this one, but if you look at my car in person you can tell that it hasn't even been broke in yet. I know for a fact that I haven't even put 1000 miles on it. The reason I know this is because a couple of months after I got it running I put it in the paint shop. It stayed at the paint shop from 31 Dec 2007 to 04 Oct. 2008. The only drive time it got was taking it around the block a few times to make sure it would run. It has more crank up and tune time on it then drive time.

One thing for sure is you have taken care of that car. That would be a big selling point for me.
