Thought I'd ask you folks as you are the most knowledgeable on the cars. I have a restored 1974 model with a 2.0. I am wondering what I should ask for it as I need to sell it. Prices seem all over the place. Hagerty values it at $23,700 - "Excellent" as the condition for the car. Pics attached, looking for opinions.

Car runs and drives great, no engine/tranny leaks.

thanks

Few more details: car originally had AC (components removed, except inside blower, still have the old stuff), dual weber 44's, carb cam, flat top pistons (like European car), new shocks, tires, ball joints etc.......

From the pics (real life is better), it's a clean-looking car. Good paint, interior, and trunks. Clean and tidy engine bay. At that price point ($24K), lack of original FI will be a problem for many buyers, some may not care if you have time to wait. Pics of the underside and the critical rust areas would help. Front bumper top appears to be showing underside rust, or am I seeing that wrong? Also looks like your crankcase breather is just vented into the engine compartment, is that right? Are the cooling flaps and thermostat present and functioning? Front and rear trunks look slightly misaligned, are the hinges solid? Extra Porsche badging on the back is a turn-off for originality buyers. Is the fuel evaporation system and charcoal canister present and functioning (i.e. venting into the intakes, not into the air)?
