Its really hard to put a price on someone elses junk (its all junk to me, even
my black car). I always work it out this way, if I were to junk it and part it
out, what would it bring me? Can I sell the motor/tranny for a few hundred
bucks? How about the fenders? Are the misc. interior pieces that are normally
gone/ broken there? What kind of price would the frame fetch me? Believe it or
not you can run into a couple thousand in just parts if you are willing to sell
it all individually and not sell it in one lump sum. I once bought a 55 Chevy
that was too far gone to fool with but it was complete. I managed to sell
everything off the car including the rotted sheetmetal. I then sold the body to
a guy that made a nostalgia dirttracker out of it. Anyway maybe this will help.

Hey Gang
I am looking for some input. I have the opportunity to buy a '68 Camaro,
practically in my back yard. It is a project car that ran as recently as 3 or 4
years ago but inside stored for approximately 12 years or longer. Not the
original color or transmission, originally 4spd, with a 350, needing paint and
rocker panels, floor pan, inner fenders, but the rest of the sheet metal looks
decent. Interior is mostly there, but will need new door panels and seats need
recovering, along with headliner, carpet, package tray, etc.
I have checked NADA, Collector Car Market Review, Edmonds and Gold Book, but
still not comfortable enough to make a solid offer. Anyone want to make a
suggestion or lead me to a better resource for pricing ?
Thanks in advance.
Larry
