Re: [Chevelle-list] Should I sell or should I wait?

2005-09-14 Thread gail




  hello, 
  
  as for your question 
  about ebay, i really have no idea, i dont know much about it. but are you 
  asking too much? i dont think so, i think it would be well worth it, but like 
  the last response, i wouldnt sell it unless i absolutley had to. i know that 
  its a rough time for me as well, but i couldnt imagine giving up my chevelle, 
  hell, i'd sell my damn trailer and just move on into the chevelle. but, well, 
  thats just my wacky opinion, i know that it costs a lot of money to survive 
  these days. but just wanted to tell you that i honestly dont think that 
  you are asking too much, and wanted to wish you good luck with your decision, 
  and may things work out for you well in the end.

or should I wait?

Hello Fellow Chevelle Enthusiasts!

From time to time I wonder what a highly modified Chevelle 
(stock appearance outside) SS Convertible is worth. I know they are 
accrueing at $1500.-$2,000. dollars a 
year.

It's a '68 Chevelle SS Convertible:

Sea Frost Green (silver green) origional 
color,
was painted a couple years ago cheap, 
showing,
wear but still looks pretty good and get a lot 
of
compliments. Has all new repop trim and 
fresh
stock appearing 1" black stripe around 
body
as they came with from factory.

4 speed M-20 (origional 3 speed man.I have for 
it)
Origional engine (Now Edelbrock 
Aluminum
heads), I have the origional 325 iron 
heads,
origionally buckets, now headrested 
recovered
buckets correct for year. Tilt column 
correct
with correct wood grain wheel, disc 
brakes,
custom with '92 1LE Z-28 Camaro Disks,
aluminum radiator.

No a.c, manual top., no console, 15"rallye 
rims,
origional NOS caps and 14" wheels 
available.
Have origioal AM radio, now with satellite 
radio
Alpine, and 360 watt and four integrated 
speakers,
concealed.

4-link F-41 NOT origional, and 
aftermarket,
Hotchkis, KYB Shocks. Closed rear 
end.
(open = stock), Eaton.

670 Avenger Holley w/ auto choke.

Top is new 5 year, not origional but the 
best
available, "black"a couple months old, 
and
black interior, less than two 
years old.

Deluxe seatbelts.

Runs very well, just keep filling with 
gas!

Is asking 28K out of line? Or start bid 
at
20K in e-Bay? A lot of people tell me 
that
e-Bay! is not a good place to list. 
Feelings?
Any ideas?

Those aremy questions:

E-Bay any good?
Should I ask so much?
Should I sell at all?

Pics avaiulable to interested persons.

Car really moves, and handles, Lowered one 
inch
(Hotchkis), engine recently rebuilt just broke 
in
(1500 miles). Turn key car. Drive 
anywhere. It's
very reliable, and drives well with nearly 
new
tires, new alternator, headlights, oil change, 
etc.

This list is great!

I also can not tell you much about E-bay as i honestly never had the
BALLS to drop my money on anything sight unseen..
BUT: 
In my way of thinking...(not normal to be sure)... I would be selling a
TOY...such as a Chevelle only for a couple of reasons...
1. I really needed the money...or I had a damn good use for the
money...l
2. I no longer got enough seat time in the car to REALLY enjoy
it...
3. I was offered a lot more money for the car then I though it was
worth TO ME... this has absolutely nothing to do with 
 the cars actually worth...I value a car for the
smiles per mile it gives me.see number 2 above

That said I did sell my very highly modified 68 SS396 Chevelle in April a
few weeks after Spring Carlisle ..
 
My reasons were simple...
I was offered much more money for it then it was worth TO ME...and it was
a lot less then 28K...
Mine was barely street-able ... I used it maybe 8-10 times at the strip
last summer and I was fighting age (I am in my 60's) and my 
reaction times were becoming embarrassing...I was just not enjoying
trying to beat my own reaction times rather then turning better
ET's...
As far as Chevelles appreciating at 5 to 10 percent a year I honestly do
not know...I never noticed much of a increase until this year..and it was
not only Chevelles that shot up thru the roof...ask some of the long time
Mopar boys... And will it continue?...Heck nobody 
knows...
I will tell you I still have 64,72,76,79  95 Corvettes in the
garage but I miss the Chevelle...and have been looking for The right El
Camino to replace it with...one that is almost a turn key vehicle ..and
is completely street-able...hell I may even buy one with an automatic
Tranny I just want to drive it ...
Lots of luck...

If you're just considering the idea,I would 
reconsider. I would wait till you have to sell. g
Even thought about listing it on Car Trader 
Online? Less hassles than eBay.
