What's my car worth?, Feeler for selling my first for another project. Options

[Vysoc]

Hello,

I am currently working on a 914-6 GT Recreation type project and am testing the waters about selling my 1975 914-2.0 D-Jet.
I am trying to force myself to pick-up the pace on my restoration. I am also thinking about buying an older Double Cab VW bus to use as advertising for my wife and her Real Estate Business.
So I am trying to determine the value of my 1975 2.0 D-Jet 914. Here is the story on this vehicle. I purchased it in 2006 with the engine not running as a result of a wulfert key failure on the Cam. I purchased a very nice GA 1974 2.0 D-Jet engine and pulled all good parts off the GC and made a very nice running engine that I really have had a great time driving. I rebuilt the car, Backdated the bumpers and repainted it from Scarlet Red to Grand Prix White. Interior is in great shape, everything works. The recent Okteenerfest was an absolute ball and the car never missed a beat in three days of heavy driving. Those at the event could probably chime in on what the value may be, I do have a Momo seat in the car that is a lot of fun to drive in but I have the original seat in great shape. All suspension is tight and refreshed, front and rear sway bars, Transmission refreshed by Otto in California in 2005, this is an awesome car to drive, runs and shifts like a dream!
Here are some pictures, please let me know what you would estimate current value at. Pictures show Vitaloni mirrors it now has originals on both sides.

Thanks,

Just kidding Peter!!!

Very nice car, would be a great daily driver and probably worth more than 10, less that $15 but that all depends on who i shopping at thte time of sale. and your wife knows this, my agent says only worth what someone is willing to pay and it seems people are willing to pay more for a rust free solid running car for sure. .

GLWTSale!

10-12k. Could however be 15k as well. It depends on the buyer!

More pics and info would help. Electric? Heat? Exhaust? What kind of wheels are those? We cannot see them in the photos. Carpets? Center console? Dash condition? Steering wheel? All these little things add up to an "appearance" and value and can add up in costs for someone to set up as they would like if they are unsatisfactory to the buyer, whereby if they are all top notch already and appeal to a buyer, he (she?) will take that into consideration and be willing to pay more than if they had to invest in such things after the purchase. All we know from your post is what you say about it, which isn't much. Details can make a car that one is willing to pay e.g. 12k for into one they're willing to pay perhaps as much as 15k for.
