I have owned this car since 1987 (the one UNDER the hoist!). The truth is that I am never going to restore it. I have the money, but I don't have the time, energy, or patience. I just have more fun in a faster, new Camaro convertible than I think I could ever have in this car again. Assuming, of course, my car ever gets delivered from Lansing - it has been complete for 7 weeks now, waiting for dispatch to the dealer.
Is there a site that specializes in cars like this? And how much is it even worth? The most valuable part of it is the interior - an original factory Recaro seat setup. Those are probably worth a few thousand to a 2nd gen builder, but how much is the rest worth? It is a 2000 made special edition pretty much rust free (not including light surface rust) except where someone chiseled out the door lock on the pass side. It is all original except for tire and wheels. It had some 15's when I bought it but they were those crazy uni lugs which I believe are illegal now.
I see them selling at auction (all fixed up of course) from low $20k's to mid $30ks. Should I just put it out at $10k and get some offers? There was a much better condition one on Bring-a-Trailer in 2019 and it didn't even get reserve - bid up to $12k. It seems like the pro touring versions with LS swaps get in the 30's though.
Any thoughts are appreciated.
Thank you.
