Feeler 1970 -4 roller value Options

[sixaddict]

So with forum rules FS……..I cannot post this for sale without a price. I have gotten a wide range of suggestions as to what to do with it including putting it on BAT based on $$$$ cars are bringing. Let me give the specifics.
This is a 1970 -4. #147. I was in the midst of a resto/ mod but ran into an issue I am not going to remedy so project is being aborted.
So the good:
Purportedly Arizona car but purchased in Alabama. It is titled in SC in my name.
Adriatic blue
Car was glass beaded or soda blasted (long story)
Front/rear trunks doors all from other cars and are nice.,
Painter had been working it so exterior is expoxy primed except doors and hood/trunk.
There was no rot in the car so no panels have been replaced.
Would make good platform for build for the right person.

The issues:
Once Bondo was removed from quarters and primed they looked like Bambam used as a toy. To build a quality car the quarters need to be replaced.
The rear trunk panel has perforations so replace or repair.
Right rear suspension “ear” has perforations so needs replacing
Front trunk seal area has perforations
Painter sprayed POR-15 in trunks and engine bay.
No engine/trans
I have load of parts …..but no bumpers.
Trying to establish logical price ( for me as well as buyer)
On the low end I could part out but hate to do that to viable car..
Have loads of pics but just posting a few for your entertainment.
Car is located in Greenville SC.

$1,500 maybe; I agree with Mark re the work needed. It's sad as the cost to do metal work and the replacement panels just makes these cars tough to save unless the owner does the work and has access to panels cheap. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Depends what you'll take for it. If you'll take $2K, I'd list it here for $2500 and see what happens. You've been straightforward about the condition, so anyone who buys it will know what they're getting into. Someone may want to throw some filler over it and use it as the basis for a race car.

If you're looking to max out your money, I think you're spot on with wanting to list it on BAT as a project....stupid money there and you control the reserve. GLWTS!

Understand what you are saying.
Like “ like the dash is perfect except for one small crack” (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
I should have said in hh or longs.
Thanks for input

Someone told me most value may come from selling of parts of body for a six restoration. Sawzall and spot weld removal sounds like just punishment….

Maybe if fenders and quarters are in great shape

sold this car last year as a good reference.

The car was very solid rust wise but would need body work. Ended up selling on Ebay for about $2000 so inline with others assessments.

I am posting this to give us all some perspective.
The car sold for 2600 on eBay….I sometimes think our “knowledge” keeps prices down.Mark E was right on $$ but a couple of others were devaluing to “part out” price.
Just for the record posting a car for sale here turns into a cluster f that I am unwilling to subject myself to.
So I post on pelican that avoids all the BS commentary……even though it is a lesser audience.
Just sayin…….the car is probably better than he $ it brought but I don’t want to inflate a product so post what it is…….let the $$ speak.
Don’t kill the messenger boys.
