Posted December 28, 201311 yr comment_438633 Hi All, My baby has been setting outside since I bought her several years ago. She was in storage for 12 years prior to me getting her. I put somewhere where around 10 grand into her, counting initial $3000 I paid for her. Now she is starting to look the worse for weather wear. Rust in all the usual places. I had replaced all the struts, complete new master bushing kit, new windshield, the old one was pitted, Ztherapy carbs, balance tube, heat shield. Too many NOS parts to list here. I do have a folder full of everything I bought. New u-joints all the way around. My mind boggles at all of the parts I put on and under her. She only has around 68,000 original miles. She needs a home worthy of her. It's breaking my heart to see her set outside and rust. Recently the plastic molding the choke is attached to under the console broke off. Oh yeah, the BS paint job "Mr. get it done rite the first time" that's this Fooks actual catch phrase on his advertisement; Is not holding up worth a dam. My problem is I don't know how much to ask for her. I know I will never get near what I have into her, but I don't want to give her away either. I had the original title in my hands. I bought her from a dealer that bought her from original owner at car show. She's definitely a keeper to the right person, a true Z person. But alas she needs an inside home, and a owner with a budget to restore her properly. My wife would divorce me if I had her painted again:devious: UMMM! No, as much as I would rather keep the Z than the Chinese warden;) Anyhow, any comments or remarks on what I should try to get out of her would be welcomed. The Z, not the wife fellasLOL Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/48234-thinking-about-selling-my-baby/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

December 28, 201311 yr comment_438660 No one is going to be able to advise you on what the car is worth without a lot more info.So, try and sell us the car, post some good pics of all the rust areas, underneath, engine bay along with the list of what you have done to the car to improve it. Think of this as a dry run. Hell, you might even find a buyer through this thread.
