So I'm at a loss for how there has been zero interest for this at $3,800. Feel free to pm any comments anyone has on this and let me know what I'm doing wrong. I know the body style route I started taking isn't everyone's cup of tea and have tried to price it accordingly. I thought it was a reasonable price even for someone who already has their own project, but maybe I'm mistaken. Willing to deliver within a long 1-day drive of Minneapolis for an additional $600. Threw it back on ebay with no reserve and a starting bid of $3300. Will see what happens. |

Total lack of interest means it's way too high. The parts you bought for the car were your dream, not someone else's. The car still has a lot of work and $$$ before its running and looking nice. 2x what your asking will get you a decent driver. $0.50 on the dollar is just a starting point for this kind of project. I know it hurts but that's just the way it goes. GLWTS. - If you want to start geting your money back quickly, start parting it out. It's a pita but it will start generating cash. |

[/quote] For the record its basically at 50 cents on the dollar for parts and $1000 for the roller. The car could be mechanically sound and running, albeit not pretty, for little to no extra money. Though you're probably right and I may need to part it. |

Ebay is a good spot for "parting out".........give it a try! I doubt most folks there would appreciate all the good stuff you have as a total package. Oh well.

I've got the car on ebay with a minimum bid of $3300, which is what it'll be listed at on here in the event it doesn't sell when auction ends on Thursday.
At $3,300 I see the car priced as: -$1000 roller -$2200 retail value of the heads and super valvetrain kit -$100 for EVERYTHING else. I just don't see how that isn't a fair price. As far as I know, the heads/valvetrain kit will really work for anyone building a type4 engine of basically any size with 96mm pistons. |

Price lowered to $3,000.
Willing to entertain offers on parting it out in large chunks if that interests people more. Bueller....Bueller...anyone?? |
