1971 Dodge Demon
So why wouldn't I just buy a nice complete car to start with?
If the body work has not been done yet ( don't remember here) at least you control and know what caliber of work is done.
I have had Mopars for sale and the prospective buyer asks me a good question " How did you arrive at the price you are asking?" I reply I find actual sold cars that are in MY area and comparable and then I ask MYSELF " what is this car worth TO ME!?" In the end, what is it worth to me? or am I gonning to sell the son of a gun one way or another!
I have had many Dusters, 1 Dodge Dart, and 1 FeatherDuster over the years but just one Demon, and it was a slant car and from about 2005 or 6. I love the taillites on the Demon but thats it. That Demon I sold back then I knew was special because they are so hard to find. It took a year to get $3500 out of it with a completely fresh engine, good driver and sold but needed paint and interior work. Hardly any internet back then, at least for ME! Just MCG. That was atleast 20 years ago! The couple that bought it from 50 miles away did so because thy had 1 Demon and wanted a mate for it!
Half done projects can be tough to sell, especially IF not a runner. And I have found that half done cars priced that high, people with $ will just go buy a done car, unless they feel they are getting a bargain worthy of their time and $ they have to spend on it.
I always want a car that if I decide to sell, I can price it at what I think is fair market and IF no one wants it, I can be happy keeping it my my herd. Thats just me.
