durden510 Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 I've had this car for a few years now, had a lot of fun with it, put nearly 3k into it just doing little thing here and there to get it running as well as I can. But I'm 90% sure I'll be moving to Hawaii this summer for work and don't actually want to store this at my parents house until I get back. Preface this with the fact I'm not the most car savvy by any means but if I missed anything (and I'm sure I will) please feel free to ask and I'll answer as quickly as I can. Here's the link to the pictures: http://imgur.com/ahz...8rk,bldgA,dQIQx Specs: 1969 510 Clean title L20B with 5 speed transmission 65k mileage on both Dual weber 40's rebuilt 1 year ago Electronic ignition Fiero Radiator installed 6 months ago Coil over suspension Replaced rear main seal and rear differential Body: Windshield has a tiny ding that hasn't spread since I got it, other than that its clean Body is straight, never been in front end accident Some bondo on the front right quarter panel, not much Needs a repaint as you can tell from driver side Only noticeable rust near trunk latch, nothing major Electric: Water temp gauge works, installed thermostat year ago. Odometer doesn't work (got used to it) No heater, AC Wipers work, replaced motor recently All lights and markers work Interior: Backseat has a blanket over it for a reason, chewed to hell, but has all the seat belts in tact Carpet installed from kit purchased here Door locks work Ghetto fabulous vice grips for passenger side door handle/window crank I understand this car definitely still needs some love, but I drove it off and on for a few years now, no problem as a daily driver. No fuel leaks but has oil leak, I believe due to the backpressure from not having cap on top of the valve cover (tried a few places, nothing fit) Car gets about 24mpg on highway, 18-20 street. Lots of fun to drive, in fact everytime I get back into it if I haven't driven it in awhile I always think "I can't sell this! I just can't!" ;p I appreciate any feedback all you experts have. I've been on my craigslist in the bay area and haven't seen many that are close enough to my set up to get an idea what I could get for it. Thanks! Link to comment

Npdavies. Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 I'd say 3-3.5k definitely. It does look nice... If I had the money I'd swoop it up in a minute. Lolz. Link to comment

Rotary510 Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 I'de say $3,000, unless you have new tires :geek: , $3,500 ! I sold my 1972 3 door for $7,000 but it had a new paint job and complete new interior and mighty clean, deduct paint $2,000, deduct $1,000 on interior and mint chrome pieces...$3,000.00.

bananahamuck Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 And deduct for the chicken wire holding carb together and the fact new owner has to find, buy and install new window regulators that have been destroyed by the vice grips....... $2500. Link to comment
Draker Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 These are obviously Cali prices.. which are fitting given the location. NW - $2500 ish depending on what it looks like in person. Link to comment
Greenless Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 what are the odds that it would make a 2800 mile trip? if the odds are high enough i would pay up to 3k once i see it in person. Link to comment
durden510 Posted May 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 Thanks for all the answers guys, I actually paid 3k for it originally when I was younger and dumber and didn't know what to look for other than "I've always wanted a 510!" :/ The chicken wire is terrible I know lol was pretty mad those popped off. As far as a 2800 mile trip, the most I've driven it was about 612 miles from Washington state, no problems. I can put up more pics tomorrow if necessary. Yeah its going to be Maui, heh thanks for offer :) -still working out details tho! Link to comment
uieluck Posted May 16, 2012 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 What I see, and read there seems to be fairly solid. I'd definitely start at $3,500. GLWS. 1 Link to comment
