datrod Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 I got a call from a friend of mine, Said he has a guy that want's a wagon and asked me if I wanted to sell mine. Well I don't really want to sell it but if I could get 10K I would let it go. What do you guys think? New L20B motor (stock) weber 32/36 header rabbit radiator rebuild 200sx 5sp 280zx front with coilovers tokico struts (short) 17X7 wheels & new tires good paint This thing is pretty much a new car. I have replaced every thing on it in the last 6 Months. Bash away I need some input. Link to comment

]2eDeYe Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 I think you should only sell it if your gonna do another one :D ...and if the guy will pay 10K, that'll go a long way building that new one ;) Link to comment
ppeters914 Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 If you'll only considering selling a $10k or higher, tell 'em $12k and let 'em talk ya down to $10k. Just be sure you're ready to part with it and/or get another non-running project. Link to comment
racerx Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 Nice and clean wagon but $10K, I will look for a sedan. The engine is stock, 32/36 and nothing more. Link to comment

I do have two Z cars that need some love.:D Thanks for your input. Link to comment

racerx Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 Everything costs more in California. :D You know what Einstein said, everthing is relative. So let's put his theory to the test, put it on Ebay and if it sells or Craigslist and if it sells fro $10K, then his theory is correct. RacerX Link to comment
510er Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 your goon is wicked clean and it would make a good DD, to the right buyer im sure you would get 10k for it. I mean hell if i was king for a day... Link to comment

mklotz70 Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 It's worth what someone is willing to pay for it. If that person wants those rims/tires, that color of paint....yada, yada. If they want different rims or paint color....they won't want to go anywhere near 10K. Your pricing is like mine with the NL.....if someone wants to give me $8k for it....it's gone. Is it worth that...no, but I'd be dumb not to jump on that deal :) Worse case...you give him your price, he thinks you're nuts.......then when he finds a fixer with a hacked motor swap for $4K, he'll think he got a screamin' deal and the seller will think "sweet, I found a sucker!" :) Link to comment
KELMO Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 If I had an extra 10k I would think very hard about it. Thats a damn fine lookin ride. I also say throw it out there at 12k....ya never know Link to comment

You are right on the money with my thinking. I think I'll call this clown and tell him $12K. See where it goes:lol::lol::lol: I have close to $7K in the f/n thing now. I've had more fun with this wagon than any other car I have put together. So it would take alot to get me to part with it. I dont think I would ever pay that much for it. But I have no problem spending that much to build one. :D Link to comment
slodat Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 The other thing to take in to account is everything you learn building the first one. It makes the second one a much better car and more fun to build, IMHO. Link to comment
69FJWagon Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 10K for that wagon...I say it would go for MORE to the right person from what I have seen here more people are wanting a wagon. like you said throw it out there and see what happens. My wagon is in my opinion no where as clean as yours and I had a guy offer me $6500 as a roller no engine or tranny at first I was like what the hell is this guy thinking :confused: then I added it up and had about 7k into it before I even did the FJ swap. just my 2 pennys... hate to see it go before I even get to see it in person but good luck with the sale Clayton Link to comment

I told the wife last night what I was up to. She was like, I thought we were going to go to oregon in June with the goon. So I think I might have to hang on to till then.:D I did send some pic's to the guy but no answer yet. I'm sure he still trying to get his chin off the floor. So $12K plus shipping to New York. Is kicking his ass,:eek: Link to comment
